Okay, so I like MAG, and lag is nonexistant. Pretty impressive considering its 256 player games. Now, my main issue with the game is hit detection. Countless times I have sniped a player that was either sniping or stopping to reload or heal, and i aim straight for the head, and nothing. It sometimes takes between 3-5 bullets on average to down them. On top of that my M4 with Valor mostly hits, but has its moments. Are you guys having problems?

I know where you are coming from. It seems like most of the time the damage is random. I wonder if the armor actually makes a difference in how much damage one takes.

When sniping, it is suppose to take 3-5 bullets to take someone down, if this wasn't the case imagine how many people would be sniping if it was one shot one kill? Easy XP there. The hit detection seems fine to me, the short time I tried out Valor, the M4 does take a couple more bullets then Sver Assault rifles to put someone down.

Thats when the bullets connect. Most of the time, the little (X) doesn't show when I make a clean hit.

sometime it is LAG lol. just because YOU dont notice it does not mean its not there. It is IMPOSSIBLE for a game to not have a little bit of lag. I have seen a lot of game play videos and there has been some noticeable lag, at least to me, especially when there is a lot of players on screen or near the area. But the connection of the game has been surprisingly good for a lot of what i have seen.

Funny you say that, because while I levelled to 40, and then another char to 60, I noticed no lag, and yet you seem to be able to see it in videos. When there's lots of players on screen, it does not affect lag. That's frame rate.

An no, no it's not. If it did, then every review, and positive opinion on this game so far is apparently lying. But I can tell you that the 12+ people on my list playing it now do not find it broken, so you may want to get a new controller/play the game first.

Hit detection is great. You have to take several things into consideration. 1.Armor 2.Do not aim down the sights. This isn't MW2. Shooting from the hip is much more effective at the lower levels unless you have the Steady Aim ability. 3.Someone might be medicing him at the same time you hit him.
