Apex Legends player shows off frustrating hit registration bug with Longbow sniper rifle Apex LegendsAn Apex Legends player using the Longbow DMR sniper rifle came across an infuriating bug that\u2019s currently plaguing the popular battle royale game. While the Apex Legends community have loved Respawn Entertainment\u2019s battle royale, they have been begging for crucial fixes for bugs that have been plaguing the game since its February 4 launch. One of those complaints stem from the game\u2019s seemingly random shot registrations that seem to be hit or miss, especially with Legends like Octane, Pathfinder and Wraith. That shot definitely hit the target In a Reddit post, user \u2018Reizag\u2019 was scoping with their Longbow aiming at far away Octane, but was greeted with one of the most stunning instances of bugged hit registration to date.

Apex Legends player offers the perfect solution – After zeroing in on the Adrenaline Junkie, Reizag launched a couple of shots that hit square on the foe, dealing a total of 110 damage and breaking their golden Body Armor. Reizag definitely showed they\u2019re no slouch with the sniper, so they stayed locked hoping to finish the kill, but it didn\u2019t turn out that way. After landing the first two shots in a row, Reizag can be seen hitting their third as well. But even as the player saw a plume of blood coming from Octane after landing the third shot, there was no damage indicator to confirm the hit. The player continued to shoot, missing the fourth shot but landing the one soon after. But again, Reizag sees a splatter of blood emanating from the Stimmed up Octane without a damage counter. Why didn\u2019t the shots land? There was confusion in the Reddit thread to which one of the many bugs were on display in the clip, as some thought it was another case of wonky hitboxes that have appeared throughout matches in King\u2019s Canyon. \u201cThis is a hit-reg issue (probably related to netcode\/tick rate),\u201d Reddit user \u2018Aetherimp\u2019 said. \u201cPathfinder is a hitbox issue. They have similar symptoms, but different causes.\u201d Going by Reizag\u2019s previous hits dealing 55 damage a piece with armor, if all the shots that were supposed to land actually did, Octane should have received about 220 of total damage. That damage would have been more than enough to down or eliminate the enemy. Bugs in Apex Legends have been a thorn in players\u2019 sides since launch, and the community is hopeful the developers will issue permanent fixes soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
