Anyone feel killers attacks connect without contact?

Ever since the oni was released I just feel like killers seem to have an extra invisible inch at the end of their weapons. Is this just hit boxes in general? I know they have never been perfect.

  • It's not since Oni was released. It's been like this forever - and dedicated servers made it worse. They can improve on it, but because of the nature of centralized dedicated servers combined with that of inherent latency, it will always be there to some extent.

  • It's probably a combination of both. Not every killer has weapons of the same size and attack animation, so visually it may seem like it should not have connected, but in reality all killers use the same size and shape of cone for hit detection.


    A bit of latency could have contributed to this observation too.


    P.s: Hit detection is not instantaneous. There is a window when it will keep checking the cone, which means killers can flick their mouse during an attack to increase the angle which the same attack can catch and connect to something
