General Hit Detection Bullshit

[Guest]

I don't know if it's lag or the server but every time it seems I get into a gun fight with a person I die no matter what, if I get the jump on him or I shoot him in the face the person i'm facing always seems to survive while I get bullshitted.

I got a couple of scenarios, this one happened about 5 minutes ago actually and I need to vent somewhere, inb4 shitty player, whatever.

On my way to the north west airfield and i'm laying down scoping it out when I realize something, A bandit has spawned right next to me (shitty luck for him right?) as I unload 5 bullets into his neck and head knowing i'm going to kill this guy, about 5 seconds after that he turns around and shoots me once and I fall over dead.

Causing me to get VERY pissed off, losing a lot of shit such as my M4 silenced and such.

One more story to top it off

Have a double barreled shotgun, hiding the cherno church after hearing gun shots very close to me, a bandit walks in and doesn't even realize i'm here, (cool! easy kill).

Mind you he is literally 4 feet away from me or less.

I shoot him twice in the head at pretty much point blank range, he turns around and shoots me once with the AKM in the chest and I fall over and die, he had 2 streams of pouring blood

seeming to come from each eye socket.

My question is what the fuck am I doing wrong, everytime I run into a player I seem to get fucked over

Some tips would also be appreciated into dealing with hostile bandits.

Listen, this game runs of client side. If you shoot them on your client, they die when their internet and computer catch up.
