Bite Hit Detection

Maybe I'm going crazy, but the skulk bite hit detection seems incredibly off to me. I just spent a game where the majority of my bites did nothing. Is this a fairly common issue, did I just have a bad server, any thoughts?

    I find it's pretty accurate. Were you lagging or suffering with low FPS at all?

    Wasn't lagging at the time I was doing all the biting, but I was playing on an official server that did lag me out at the end.

    It's not just bitereg. It's a hitreg issue. It is improved now, as it was much worse =)
    The major influence could be: your fps, ping to server, target's ping to server.
    From the game dev. perspective - it will be improved in further patches.
    From the connection perspective - you can't really do anything about it, apart from changing the server where you don't lag, that's if you did lag in the first place though...

    It's good to know that hitreg is still an issue. Some things never change, I guess.
