Original Post — Direct link

Many times when playing a shield operator and i side-strafe for some reason i get shot in the head, and when the death cam shows up or i watch a replay they just shoot center fire in my head through the shield, is there some kind of desync between third and first person shield hitboxes?

Hey @xcel30 ,

Thank you for reaching out to us and reporting this!

We haven't yet had any other similar reports.

Do you noticed any ping or lag spikes when these instances occur?

And could you please link a clip here if possible so we can take a closer look?

Thank you!

Hey there @xcel30 ,

Thank you for getting back to us!

If possible, would you be able to capture a current clip for us to look into?

Thanks for this @xcel30 ,

Is this the only instance of this you've been able to capture?

I can see where your Operator is reacting, how it's unclear if the damage was caused at that point, or a potential headshot during the flash, as his crosshair was just in the right place as your shield moved.

Do you find this is happening often when playing as a Shield Op?

@xcel30 I see, we're looking into issues with the animation being inconsistent with shield ops vaulting but had no other reports of strafing / side-to-side movement also having issues.

If you're able to capture additional clips where you can, we can build almost a portfolio of examples, giving the team more to work with and look into this further.
