I think someone found the problem was with the netcode so the 0 damage bug should be sorted at the same time. -
I don't think so, I've been hit full-force in the face by a rocket and not taken any damage. This was in a duel where both of us had pretty good ping; it definitely evoked a "wtf?" from him.Originally posted by bclagge View Post
This bug has been around since UT2004, though I definitely don't think it was as prevalent. Maybe just not as noticeable, considering it appears to be projectile-related and UT2004 was dominated by hitscan.Comment

Since the netcode has been substantially improved I am guessing you guys will notice fewer of these "0 damage" situations. It would all come about from the client seeing his opponent in one place, appearing to take a hit when he actually hadn't, but in 2.0 pawn position updating has been improved, meaning what you see on screen should be more reliable. I have heard quite a few reports that online matches feel considerably more responsive now, I am willing to bet this will improve people's perception of not only the avril but sniper and shock feel as well..Comment

Here is a list of stuff relevant to the netcode:
Networking bandwidth use optimizations.
Improved prioritization of actor replication.
Improved network pawn position update smoothing using mesh translation.
Improved dynamic netspeed system based on player counts.
Don't dynamically adjust listen server client netspeed above max client has requested (for modem clients).
The most likely key fix being in bold..Comment

Bersy - For the record, I haven't experienced any 0 damage bugs while using the 2.0 beta, although it wasn't extremely common before. But the game generally feels a lot smoother online overall, so I would be surprised if it isn't fixed.Comment
