    What is wrong with the games hit boxes?

    Played on PC and Xbox and i find that i dont need to be accuracte spray and pray works, the hitboxes seem to be <look at target>x<space he may be in>=fire in that general direction = his death.


    Each player seems to have a hitbox that is 4 times their size and respawn time whch is little or nothing.

    Something is not right either the game is set for spray and pray = awesomeness or there is a bug in the hitboxes.

    I noticed that too, maybe the game was programmed to adapt to the ping.

    Mmm i do get annoyed when someones bullets magically go around corners to kill me when i'm just out of the line of fire...

    CoD doesnt have "hitboxes" per se - to make up for the fact everyone has 100+ ping they have made the "bullets bigger"

    Got to admit, I have used the shooting through/around corners thing to my advantage more then once. I saw my self being pwoned through concrete cover at a corner so I said funk this and it has worked on a couple of occasions.

    Ive noticed it a few times but nothing major and certainly nowhere near as bad as COD2 on pc.
    That thing had literally massive hitboxes.

    COD and its expansion United Offensive will never be beaten in this department.

    To be honest if you're in a position where you can be shot at its you're own fault no matter how big the hit box is.Use silencer for 15 kills and get the heartbeat sensor and keep you're head down!

    Folks fart on about hit boxes way more in Halo then this. Just play smart if you get too bogged down in that crap it will only dampen you're experience .

    The topic is hitboxes hence why we reply speaking about hitboxes, your only stating the obvious in your reply.
    Its like going onto the Henry handball thread in the soccer forum and saying well to prevent henry handling the ball keep the ball away from him :D
