Snipe - Desyncronizing - Fix It

brandonv516

Is this an Xbox only problem? Do we just have to deal with it like everything else the developers can't fix?

Patch after patch...
It goes.
It comes back.
It gets "fixed".
It returns.

Recently it's the same player every time I run into them in Battlegrounds. And I know it's going to be a terrible game because they are going to exploit the sh!t out of Snipe.

I don't want to report him/her because they may have a toast connection, but it is exploiting when you kill your enemies who just stand still (by no fault of their own). He knows people aren't this dumb to just stand and take it.

So please fix it. Or don't and keep collecting the $$$.

Aaah, Battlegrounds. If ever you want to see exploits, go there for entertainment.

I doubt this will or can be fixed, tbh.

Yep, same on PS4. Its been a problem for years, and even today I had a death recap of lethal, lethal, light attack, lethal, lethal. The first hits, you can't break, dodge roll, cloak, ect, yet you can move but can't cast, and fall over dead, but move around for 2 seconds before game says you are dead.

Don't think they know how to fix it.

It's not an exploit, it's a "feature".

It was fine last patch I hate how they made it glitchy again. It ruins people's fun.

I actually ended up having a conversation with the player who has been successful in doing this.

He claims that on his screen people freeze up and don't know how to react to his first attack, so he chalks it up to inexperience.

He went on to explain that I need to put more crit resistance on, build for defense, and react to audio cues better. Additionally he suggested I run in a tighter group...lol.

I showed him multiple videos of his actions and he got silent. Audio cues do happen along with a stun, but no damage is taken - I break free immediately, move my character one or two steps and my bars drop to zero.

This is such a grey area in terms of exploitation that they likely couldn't or even wouldn't do anything.

Maybe its back because of the crashing fix... Want to know what I think the "fix" for crashing really was? Reverting to an older client version. Only that can explain the negative performance gains after the supposed fix...

He's probably playing on WiFi across the house on a euro server from the outskirts of some village in the Amazon

That's a best case scenario lol.

Didn't see anything in the patch notes about this.

I can only assume you just want us to ignore the players that can easily reproduce (exploit) the desync issues with Snipe.

In the meantime I'll just keep tormenting them when they die.
