Hit through pallets not working?

This has happened to many times to count where i swing through a pallet and hit a survivor but the survivor doesn't lose a health state. The survivor has everything the scream blood pops up i am not joking it seems like an actual hit has just happened. Is it a bug that it seems like you get a hit or a bug that you got a hit but for some reason it doesn't get registered cause i am just confused at this point

  • What you describe is hit validation, a feature, not a bug. Basically you are now denied some hits that the server deemed invalid. This is because from the survivors perspective, they stunned you before you got the hit from your perspective.

    So on your screen it looks like you hit the survivor but on the survivors screen it doesn't, or is close. If you have a lot of these invalid hits it is probably due to you having poor ping. Before hit validation killers with poor ping had a major advantage at pallets, but now in theory, not so much.
