Katana issues after todays update

Any one else having issues with katana not doing damage.
A few of my head shots didnt take out the ememy players

I haven’t used the katana yet, but there have been a lot of issues with melee in general since they “fixed” melee working through walls. It’s all horribly buggy, and it’s only getting worse.

I’ve had a few hits that made a hitreg sound and didn’t do any damage, but I thought it was just lag/connection issue.
For example a fragger taking one heavy strike and 2 slashes to kill instead of one+one (poor dude was arming a C4 when I arrived at his back)

It’s not a bug. Katana is a melee weapon and can’t shoot

@frostyvampire I was wondering the same thing. How do you head shot with a katana???


(BloodySin) #8

I still have the issue that katana exist in this game.
I know realism is nooooooooooooooowhere to be found in this game, but the concept of walking off taking a dozen bullets to the chest while instantly dying because of a slice is a huge pet peeve of mine.

melee dont have a headshot multiplier

so its the same if you slash on head or knee.

also, do you guys have the vid for it?
i kinda cant do dirty bomb right now and i wanna see it.

Lol u know what i mean.
if u right click with a katana on a low health merc like proxy/aura u take them put with one shot to the head. Now if i hit them in the head it randomly doesnt register the damage only the audio feedback works.

I know it it isnt me as it didnt change after i relpaced every thing from the telephone pole to the modem when changed names on the act later that day

That “update” messed with the hit registration or something. Game feels laggy, like ping lag, but my ping is under 70 in most games. Bullets/melee hits aren’t registering or registering too late. I’ve noticed this a lot because I use Kiratana and Vassili consistently, so it’s extremely noticeable, and terrible. Don’t know what happened.

@n-x Like everything, the lobby visual glitches, server connection failed, trapped in lobby with no option to leave and when you try and exit the game you get penalized etc. There are seriously more bugs in each patch than actual fixes.

can confirm this is happening

I might have not played enough since the update but I haven’t felt any issues not in ranked nor in regular play. Only suspicious thing I had seen is in a ranked match when we got in the lobby the team chat had a “Using FSM” message which I have no clue what it is.
