I get that feeling sometimes as well. Might just be lag though but what ever it is they need to fix it as soon possible.

Yeah, I'm aiming mostly for the head and there are so many times that I felt I didn't hit at all (4 on 5 shots). I just don't get how it works yet. I still don't know if I have to lead my shots like older FPS games or if I just need to aim at my opponent (client-side). Anyway... I hope it get fixed somehow.

It has something to do with Host connectivity and the connectivity of the game in general.....I've been in some good games where everyone had green bars and then I've been in games with the red bars and hit detection took a back seat in those games......

It's a latency thing. On your screen you are shooting a guy in the head or torso etc. but the player's real position on the map isn't 100% where you see it. The host player does not have to deal with this issue unless the game has some kind of lag compensation code in attempt to even things out. This is off topic, but they say this is exaggerated in Black Ops and that's why a lot of players complain about having lag when they are the host.
