      There is no worse feeling than outplaying and killing 5 people, only to trade on the 6th guy and just wish one of you got the kill. If I wipe the server and trade on the last guy, no one gets the bounty. Id rather just die to the guy and give him the bounty than have the server die in a trade ;-;

    The close range trade window is soo painful the last few patches, not sure if its just because I've been using shotguns more to notice it or if its gotten worse, but damn it can feel really unfair sometimes. I love shotguns for solo, but I feel like 60% or more of my solo games end in trades. x.x
    I used to be more of a believer that trades aren't too big of an issue because it is simply due to bullet speed- bullets have travel time, they aren't instant, so if two people pull their trigger within a second of each other, its likely going to end with both people getting shot. And that is definitely true, many trades just come down to both people firing at the same time, but recently I have had a massive influx of trades where the person is falling, or on the ground, before I get shot. I SEE the death animation and then the shot comes after and kills me, or I survive it but see that their gun goes off while theyre dying, rather than before. That feels extremely common recently and that form of trading should just not exist.

    • @RimaSuit
      @RimaSuit 2 роки тому +11

      Yea, trading is horrible atm. People complained about hitreg when they died, but it were just shots that were invalidated because they were already dead on the server when they shot.
      Well, Crytek took that feedback and shots from dead people are barely (if at all) invalidated anymore, so we are left with the current trading situation.

      I’ve played and used shotguns since the game first came out and it was never this bad. I play with my friend who lives on the east coast while I play on the west coast of the US. I usually play with 100 ping. Because of this the trade window for my perspective is insane. I’ve had times where I killed someone 5 seconds before they even had a chance to shoot but I still die because I’m seeing a past version of them. If that makes sense.

      They could easily circumvent this by just increasing shotgun bullet speed, it wouldn't be "unfair" due to the range knock off, it would just reward position and reaction time so that it isn't such a constant coin toss.

    the first and second fight are a perfect example of why high rate of fire weapons are to strong in this game shotguns benefit from it more at close range because of upper torso 1 taps but think for sure they should stop adding high rate of fire weapons outside of levering and fanning since u cant aim those and are subject to rng
