I have also noticed this and I thought I was missing or having lag but then happened 2-3times in CQB also.
Have you made a bug report? if yes please share link to add more stuff

A fair few of the shots look like they’re just sailing over the top of the bridge but others are quite obviously just ghosting.
Had this happen yesterday against a JDS bluewater just straight up voiding 20.3cm SAP.
There’s gotta be some weird packet silliness going on between player 1 and 2.

Good to know I’m not the only one experiencing this issue, because the situation is becoming absurdly frustrating.
I have another observation, so please confirm you have experienced this as well. If you’re turning your boat hard to port or starboard while aiming and firing at an enemy vessel, many of the shots seem to fail to register as hits and often inflict no damage, even when they visibly appear to connect with the target.
I can prepare a bug report on this, but since it’s currently dev server season, the technical moderators are very busy. I can submit it once the new update goes live.

I presume when the update is live the devs are even more busy… ;-)
Yeah, true, so 1 to 2 weeks after it has gone live.

btw. - the torpedo bug which prevents launching undamaged and loaded tubes is still pending since 6 months…

Hello everyone, i was a naval arcade player from the first hour since naval was introduced. Played every day for many years. Since the aimbot update last year i stopped playing naval. The aimbot aiming, the overpowered AI, increase in bots, bad matchmaking, long waiting times, etc. It has ruined it for me, it has taken al the fun out of it for me. I loved this mode, this was my thing i could enjoy. All the time i spent on grinding, perfecting my aiming skills, its all for nothing. All my expensive ships are useless now. I did try some rounds to see iff i can get back into it, but no succes. Its unplayable for me in this state. Im pretty sad about it, and i miss the old naval dearly. Sorry for my rant, i know this does not change anything, i just needed to get it of my chest.

This I can’t confirm. Will reply when I actually pay attention next time.
AI were never overpowered aside from swatting planes out of the sky. Very funny to watch.
It isn’t, people want to think it is because they sail in a straight line and don’t attempt to evade.
This is more noticeable when you are playing on a fast coastal boat against an enemy coastal boat.

Yeah, I don’t touch coastal.
I have the same issue for a year with different coastal crafts.

The aim on those things is absolutely crazy, I’ve gone up to 3000+ meters in my He 111 H-6 and I still get sniped by them!

Me and a hyuga just ghost shelled three to four salvos against one another at sub 6km after I detonated shell room one in a westfalen.
It has to be some weird packet silliness.

I suspect that. Perhaps… the server cannot handle that amount of gunfire and movement calculations? I am not sure. The ships and boats can pump out a higher amount of shots with secondary AAs in this game mode. I don’t know. I am speculating at this point. I’d like to understand this more.

It’s only gotten really bad the last few days so I suspect it might be due to test server running on the same network

I love those , No CAS allowed ! One time 2-3 players targeted me one by one flying in their planes hoping it would be easy kill like they get in ground battles because they couldn’t get kill me by ship, and all of them were wiped out by my AA lol , it’s good that CAS isn’t a nuisance in Naval mode unlike ground battles

ticket tickdown is noticeably more rapid when the match is 95% bots. For some reason, it just ends the match faster than if it was >80% players. I hope they adjust this for empty matches. It ruins the only fun of the gamemode.

Just an observation, I am not sure if it’s the Eu servers or it is related with ping or something.
I played with the Gay Archer for the BP challenge and expecially in the EU servers it was so obvious to the point I got angry with the 20mm not registering, like throwing peanuts.
So I played one game at the CIS and then US servers .
At the CIS with 90+ maybe I had it 1 or 2 times but not always
At the US servers with 130ping I din’t notice it at all.
Dang. I didn’t know this guy is gay

HMS Gay Archer, not the tank called the Archer.
