So how come the shotgun pistol's damage indicator is messed up so often? are the bullets server side or what? cause... I'm hitting 400 damage but not killing them and I need to know if I actually hit them for anything.
I believe shotgun blasts aren't predicted as well as normal bullets so you get bullets landing clientside but not serverside.
No. It's like that on all shotguns, we used to have the same problem in Neotokyo testing. It doesn't handle all the separate pellets properly and bugs out, always has done. Nothing to do with prediction.
