The hit detection problem has been around since Battlefield 1942, strangely some of the mods actually sorted this out.
It most definitely has something to do with the net code. In BF2 there were times I couldn't even try to go up stairs when my connection was dodgy.
Bad Company 2 was even worse, since you can interact with most objects and structures, whenever my connection was not 100% pure, I had lots of problems, I would get stuck to objects, the worked like magnets or something.
I could hit anything, I once emptied a entire magazine on two guys from close range in short bursts without one single hit.
However, after some tweaking, forcing the game to run DX9 and so on, everything improved greatly, to the extent that its almost a new game.
So hopefully all the problems will be sorted with BF3.

Lol I have personally seen what a pain in the posterior it can be to get 2 clients to sync properly and allow something like hit detection to be effective. Usually due to the loss of data in transmission one can experience these kinds of problems. They probably included a fail safe that prevents synchronization of shots fired etc.
But this is going to def make me more of a noob since my sheer luck won't save me anymore XD

I personally also haven't seen any of these hit-detection problems, although I have seen and heard enough of them from clannies and friends to know it exists.
If they fixed it, well good job,
If they didn't... well whatever, I guess some modder somewhere will do that himself (again!)

personally i have experienced it once on twice being on both the receiving and giving out end....
Sometimes you hit a dude and see blood but no hitreg whatsoever, it tends to be annoying but no that bad since it happens maybe 5% of he time, its very rare. Also sometimes when i get shot by a sniper i hear headshot noise and was like wtf, how am i not dead, i heard that headshot noise!
Also sometimes when you kill an oke he freezes and moonwalks for abit before he's dead, i asked Xerowing about it, its a backend/pb related issue, many of my clanmates were very concerned, especially R4C3 but i explained to them that DICE were probably aware of these issues and since they are not on some deadline to release a game every year they'd fix it since they'd know about it and have the time to address it
other than that, i think a great game is on its way and its good to see that DICE LISTEN to the community!

Have to agree Buzz, at least they listen and try and fix.
