Does Nitro make you immune from cannon dmg?

Latency.

On your end(Phone) - The animation shows it hits.

On the server's end(Rovio) - you missed the shot because the boat you are targeting is actually in a different position now compared to what you are CURRENTLY seeing.

 

There is a issue in this way ...
X boat - boat with nitro
Y boat - shooting boat

From Y boat side = Y shoot > shot land X boat > animation from shot > nitro > 0 damage.
In this case scenario I agree with logic @CaffeinatedChris , but it's mean nitro use in same time or quickly (by server timing)
It's mean also - boat Y got a bigger ping / delay than boat X

From X boat side = wait until Y boat shoot > use nitro > 0 damage (mb animation displayed also)
In this case of scenario boat X should have lower ping than boat Y like in previous case, but I saw many times "waiting" until boat Y shoot , - even in close fight 1-2 meters ... sometimes this "waiting" was 5 sec + - ... so conclusion >> boat X know , shot will be 100% dodged

Due this cases 51% of the accurate shots will be missed if (boat X get better ping than boat Y)
But IMHO, I don't saw 49% of the landing successful shots , > if boat Y got better ping than boat X

Actual reuslt for me should looks like : who have better ping should have benefit (dodge or hit)
In game I saw situation like 90% dodge vs 10% hits , just from my personal experience , based on feelings.
If it's not only my personal feeling / ping , - and players like " xxxBISMARCKxxx " see this situation , we could to sum up it's like issue / bug / defect
I don't believe all nitro players have got better ping than theirs enemy

 

update.
You can look this fresh video posted here https://forum.battlebay.net/threads/fixer-speeder-fleet.16421/ , watch 1:03 its definitely unregistered shot without damage
Same issue happens with nitro.

One more evidence to proof it's definitely issue.
I have daily quest "Do 6000 damage by sniper cannon" I was Fixer5 it's mean I've got only sniper cannon. In a match I do some shots with damage and without damage > in a fight recap my damage equals "2000" (for example , I don't remember exactly) , but when I check my quest it was "3000/6000" , so it's mean unregistered shot calculate somehow in a server and progress registered at some db table ... and progress displayed in a quest... but it's doesn't display in a game due some bug / issue / defect of the gameplay / gamestyle model. So, we have actual result like : 1k damage lossed in the fight ... by unregistered shot.

I'll try to be clear enough to describe my look at this issue.
Don't hesitate to ask if something not clear.
BR.

 

up here.
@CaffeinatedChris any refute here ?

 

This thread should have been over a few days ago.

 

I led a blast cannon from 25 range once on a speeder nitroing across my screen, I probably led the shot at least half the screen but it hit.

 

Lol. alright that's funny.

 

This is a thread about Nitro, lol... come on man... you don't even post a vid with nitro in it really? Lol what the hell is this...
