Hitmarkers in this game are basically useless because they don't actually mean you've HIT the person. What they mean is; IF you were playing at 0 PING that shot WOULD'VE landed and done damage. Unfortunately the lowest ping I get is 100 or (depending on the matchmaking) 300, and this basically means I have no indication of whether my shots are landing or not and I have no idea how far I have to lead ahead of my targets if I want to hit them. I've 1 shot people before with the blunderbuss when I wasn't even aiming at them, didn't even get a hitmarker. Based on my experience, this leads to any player to player combat just involving dudes running around with a blunderbuss hoping for a one shot. No skill or technique required. I wish I could use the pistol or sniper but it's just too unreliable. I once got about 6 hitmarkers on a guy with the pistol on our ship, he never healed but never died either. This was a 300 ping server.
Fix hitmarkers, they actually don't mean anything
@coeliterookie i love hit markers. it gives an amazing satisfaction to knowing if your shot counted or not and can help you improve your shooting.

Did you not read the OP? I too have been experiencing this. I did 3 back to back snipes on a guy and he lived. Another guy I sniped, pistol, sniped while he was on a cannon and he lived....
