Shells just disappear

When ever I use a heavy cruiser, the shells just disapear right before hitting the ship, its like theres a invisble wall around the ship

What shell and what ship?

If the other ship has a turtleback and you lack penetration it can appear as if the shell disappears but what happens in reality is that the belt reduces the penetration so much that the turtleback eats the shell and it appears as if nothing happened.

(If you mean they disappear visually i understand that, iirc its a bit of a stutter whilst the game calculates what actual damage has been done and is purely visual)

USS Portland, 8inch mk.14, 5 inch AAC, also its not exactly disapears but i can clearly see a it hit something invisible when ever aiming at a ship.

Happens alot with tanks too, the term they use to describe this phenomenon is ‘‘Ghostshell’’ and it’s from connection issues from game or client’s side and it won’t go away anytime soon, limitations of tech and all that

Yeah. It will be around forever. I doubt we will see tech that gives us 0%pl 100% of the time.

Yah but this happens all the time, like game after game
