Do people forget this is a beta game?
So hitboxes are RPG part, covering what they describe, not what they look like. Thanks, explains a lot.
Great work as always! Keep 'em coming
check out the youtube channel Oxide hes doing IRL armor testing on different russian chest rigs and helmets. Many that are in Tarkov
Holy shit, this kinda explains a lot of my deaths when wearing faceshields thinking im safe from scavs. Head,ears is always the culprit but the scav is mostly in front of me everytime, so odd!
I don't know if the ears hitbox has been changed this wipe, but I seem to die pretty often by someone shooting from the front, and killing me by hitting ears.
Great video man. I've died a couple times from rounds that shouldn't have killed me in face before so this explains a lot.
Great video! Appreciate all the effort put into the testing for this. Tarkovs not perfect but boy do we all love it.
VoX, another great video! Glad to be a part of the making of this test. Check out his stream if you want to learn anything about Tarkov!
My ammo and armor are bugged..everything 2 taps me and everyone can take my whole mag
Does the top part of the shattered mask still ricochet bullets though? That's why people use it.
In the upcoming wipe, they will probably be adding hit boxes to armor, helmets, and visors. If look under the base game content in upcoming features on the tarkov gamepedia, it mentions “realistic armor plate location and hit boxes”.
Love the video, one question tho. What happens if they run a mk18
ear hit box should be flat so no interaction from 0 degree aspect.
killa + esp is the way to go
Bring back fort and kiver meta!
Great video Vox, looking forward to the matches and milk looting guide next week.
They need to add AirPods or something when you can’t have any ears. They can double as basically hearing aids and actually work decently to amplify sound in the area.
Was a great video! Just wondering your thoughts on ricochet chance? Did you notice high ricochet chance being a major factor vs low/medium ricochet chance? Is it worth running high ricochet chance vs higher armor class 🤔
I see shattered mask dropping in price after this video! 😂
I know you’ve made a video like this in the past, but I was wondering if you could do an updated version? Would it be possible to test things like, do loading mags make sound or is it only client side? When throwing a grenade does the initial “throw” make sound? When out of breath, does that also make sound? Does your inventory make noise when you open it in raid? I know this is a lot but I’ve never been able to test these since I don’t have anyone to play with ;( . Thnx brother nice vids as always.
great vid
i wish we could combine the shattered face mask with a helmet xD
I had an alytn and pst gzh went straight through the visor lol
yikes
Nice kontent my man
I always give my buddy grief for liking the ronin but turns out it's not so bad!
Alpha was a nightmare but im glad i got to experience it
So the shattered face mask ONLY protects against cheaters then? Kappa
If I'm not mistaken, correct armor hitbox is in their upcoming features list
good video
In my opinion, the hitbox for ears should be changed so that it doesn't instantly kill you, but instead causes loud ringing as if you were stunned by a ricochet on your helmet, cause a small HP loss for the head, and have a high chance to cause light bleeding.

Do headphones protect your ears
You should not consider this a bug. This is the result of a simplification of reality into a system that is suitable to be used in a game engine that has some very niche and outlying cases where hit registration doesn't match what you'd expect in reality but is further obscured by the fact that due to the speed of the action this goes unnoticed 99/100 times in the randomness of battle in general. This is an absolute non-issue and shouldn't need to be changed.
This problem well known in the Russian community and discussed many times, so it's old like dinosaurs crap.
