Is it just me or is the railgun hit reg off?
I can get consistent headshots and direct hits with other guns like the nailgun and rl but when it comes to the railgun I can have my crosshair dead center of some lads chest and not hit at all, and this is consistent missing/not registering, this is especially frustrating in instagib matches

geniuinely curious if anyone else is having this, im probably just ♥♥♥♥ though tbh

Playing since sep 2017, for me the RG is as good as never before. I would even dare to say 9,8 out of 10 times I miss I actually felt it was my fault. Are you zooming in or not? Some pro players (e.g. toxjq) adressed this issue that it is really hard to hit the RG in that game & he basically zooms in at any distance. Might help you?

It is not just you, and it's not just rail.

I am reinstallin quake, cause today, it was really serious. Either I am mentally challenged, so my aim in brain works every match in waves, or I am 1st half of the match and then suddenly I am unable to hit people sized truck. I see it hitting tho - no reg.

+I am suspecting that galena with wings vanity item on has her hitbox broken.

this rail gun seems off to me in general. nothing like ql rg which is certainly insta (left click, insta weapon fire). the rg in qc seems slow in comparison to ql rg (left click, slightly delayed fire). also wish it was possible to disable the stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ zoom animation. find it awfully distracting when trying to aim on a target.

I also experiment a lot of these moments in a match (you're correct, it's mostly either the first half or the second one - with a third moment at the end where one of the two teams is about to win) of real luck or bad luck where my shots either succeed incredibly well or simply vanish. To speak frankly, this appears to be something that's actually quite recurrent. Also the ring outs, and I have no idea how, seem to know whether you're in a luck or a bad luck moment!

Feel this way with rail, just thought I was being bad at railing even though my eyes said otherwise.

Seems to be a mixed bag here, to clarifiy there are sometimes when i go absolutly nuts with the rg and consistently hit like im aimbotting (i dont actually aim bot but you get the idea) and other times when i cant hit a damn thing at all even if the target is dead still

i also feel like the rg needs a damage boost, if you put 4 slugs into someone and they still manage to turn around and kill you, something has gone horribly wrong with the weapon

It happens whether I zoom or not, and its not jujst small characters, i could be 5 meters from clutch or scaleboi with the dot dead on their head or chest and hit nothing, no hitmarker, no sound cue, nothing

Yeah that scope overlay ♥♥♥♥ is just distracting, same with the machine gun, iD should remove it alltogether and just have it zoom

Just a heads up, headshots does no extra damage. Not sure if you're aware. Headshots have never been a thing in any Quake - the medal is there for reasons unknown.

♥♥♥♥ really? The medal led me to belive headshots do more, and yeah do know that earier games didnt have location damage, but i thought champions did, you know, given the reward for pulling off the headshots and everything
