Have you ever noticed when you are bein shot at, you tend to book it behind the nearest wall, only to find yourself dying from the enemies bullets, while you're behind the wall. Is this just me, or is there something I am missing here.

Probably has to do with the hitbox being slightly behind the player when he's running.

Bullets are capable of going through walls (depending on what it's made out of) ... and it's not a glitch.

You don't mean the tin roll walls do you? Those can be shot through by every gun I think (rifles & LMG's for sure, maybe not pistols).

Damn you Warlord, 1 second

Well there is many reason y you die even when hiding behind wall....First the attacker may just been lucky and hit your hitbox while you was running for cover. Second: He may have took a guess and shoot you tru some fence (It is possible to shoot tru some materials with some weapons)

Like i already did to you vantage

I also been called a hacker many times for sniping some 1 tru a plywood board...Errr ok lemme think about it...Why the hell cant a l96 bullet couldnt go tru a 1cm plywood board...I see none.

Just out of curiosity (not to derail the post, just a quick question) what walls besides the Tin Roll ones can be shot through?

Are talking about tanks and APC's being able to kill you even if you're behind a wall? If so, then yeah, the splash damage from the rounds can kill you.

Nope, I am talking about a machine gun, You can hear the enemy gunning at you, and book it behind a wall, yet they still kill you with like a PK or a G36C

If you are too close to a wall, your legs may be glitched through the wall?

Yes, it all has to do with lag..


While you yourself may think your behind the wall, your actual Hitcode (the thing that registers if your getting hit by bullets or not) is lagging behind you..

If you have no idea what i'm trying to expain, what this video.

I don't think that the smaller weapons do or the shotguns. 

Its some thing to test and compare the damage with or with out shooting through the fence/plywood.  Also does distance make any difference?

Has anyone else noticed the ricochet sound when a bullet hits at an angle.  I wonder if you can actually kill someone with a ricochet or if it just makes a sound of a bullet glancing off metal!

There is lag protection in this game. You can shoot where the person *just* was, and if they dove behind cover chances are they'll still take a hit.

Yes, you can shoot someone behind a wall in that sense.

I've always wondered about that & the damage thing too when shooting through walls, if anyone wants to try it out on an empty server I'd love to take part. Xfire me or PM me & we'll find a place to go where "we can be alone" :p
