Sniper distance problem (temporal solution)

[joel15cat]

Since Bikers update, especially playing Piracy Prevention or Executive Search, when you shoot a far enemy, you can see how you hit them and some times his character falls to die, but no. That's the problem, you saw how you hit them but didnt damage (he didnt recive the shoot), and in Piracy Prevention is really annoying.

 

I find a solution, but i hope that Rockstar fixit this in the next update. The solution is go closer to the player that you can't hit in sniper, and then, you can be avaiable to kill again with the sniper in a long distance. [Example: i can't kill with the sniper a player who try to capture the yacht, so i go to the beach, closer to him, i commit suicide, and then i can kill him with the Sniper] ( i write this to be clear)

 

Sorry my bad english

I have the same problem where during Piracy Prevention, I get the red hit marker, but he doesn't seem to be taking damage.

He must have been really confused by that manouver.

If I ever did any of this pvp crap I'm sure I'd be extatic to hear this

That's actually quite interesting theory.

I've either shot rpg/hl or dropped bst when the hitmarker error occurs during pp.

I'll try to do that, I also noticed that issue and it was really annoying. A couple days ago I was playing piracy near the airport and another player went with an helicopter to the top of a building (which I think it doesn't have a ladder). Couldn't snipe him so I rather shot a missile to his heli. The blast didn't catched him, but he at least got stuck. XD

Hahaha. Here is an example of the issue (start in minute 5:49, until 6:17)

Seems like something R* should be working on it for the next update...
