Shooting invisible walls
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

At first it seemed that shooting while prone i was regularly hitting the ground in front of me all though i aiming well above the ground. Now recently, and quite frequently might I add, I am doing the same while crouched or even standing. I've found that this occurs more often on steep hills like the common sniper hill east of the power plant in elektro and the olsha hills north of the North East Airfield but it's not unheard of for it to happen on flat ground. For example it happen to me again today on the train tracks just east of balota airfield on a perfectly flat surface and I'm certain that it is absorbing bullet damage due to how close these particular instances occurred.

Steps To Reproduce

Your best bet would be to try shooting a target on the hills just east of the elektro power plant near the green house with the water source. It would seem this happens a little more frequently shooting uphill rather than down hill but that is just from my experience and has happened several times while shooting, standing, facing downhill. (M4, Mosin, sks alike have all done this randomly for me)

Additional Information

This has happened frequently, with all guns in many different areas at varying distances. I have not seen a difference while using a scope, of any kind, or just using iron sights and I've zero'd my scopes at several different distances just to toy around and manipulate the guns bullet trajectory to no avail.
