I cannot stress just how demoralizing this feels as a player. Playing Haze, especially Spirit is already an uphill battle. I don't mind that and find tons of enjoyment in the challenge, but when one of the few kills I can get and need to thrive are ripped from me, not from a mistake or from being outplayed, but just from being denied for what ever obscure reason, it just feels like absolute dogwater.

I updated the posts to include the time stamp for both occurrences.
In the first occurrence, the target was moving towards me and clips into me; the dagger missing could have been explained away by ping + dagger spawn location + hitbox. In the second occurrence, the target is standing completely still and at a small distance, I am unsure what could cause this other than wonky hitboxes.
Another player I showed this to noticed that I tend to correct my aim between the time of initiating the dagger throw and the actual throw. They tried to recreate this bug by throwing the dagger as I do in Sandbox mode. While they could not recreate this consistently, they would occasionally have the dagger pass through the target / fail to register when thrown in this manner.
We don't know if that really has anything to do with the cause of this bug, but it could be key.

Haze's dagger consistently struggles with moving targets at close range, even if the dagger clearly hits the target :/
I ran into this quite a few times as well, part of why I still bias towards primary fire as opposed to dagger.
Maybe they could duct tape it by giving it a wider hitbox within melee range.

certain parts of the map has this 'spot bug'. Its not haze dagger specific.
i have discovered this just recently.

That is insane. I am not 100% convinced they are the same bug, but I think they are more likely than not. Thank you for sharing this!

Alright, I am 100% convinced. Lmao
I guess my questions would be: Is this entirely dependent on the spots on the map? What makes those spots special? What role does the handling of projectiles play here? Is it a frame/tick 1 thing?
Can you recreate these at longer distances?

I notice this happens in the lane as Shiv all the fucking time.
I miss point-blankish daggers on my enemies.
