  10. I could be wrong as I haven't played the game in a few years, but:

    Thermal vision (either from scopes or helmets) allows other players to render at a further distance, albeit as a small orange square. Eventually, they get far enough they're a few pixels at most, but if you look hard enough they are still there. Hitboxes for players stay, even outside of render distance or when other things hitboxes don't persist. An infamous old example of this is back on the PS3 / XBOX 360 where "tank sniping" was a thing. By standing on a tall enough building usually, you could shoot at where a tank driver would be and could kill them through the tank. This was because the tank's hitbox didn't exist to the shooter, due to the distance, but the shot was registered as hitting the other player. It was so evident then because render distance was a lot shorter.

    On PS4 / XBOX One, it could still be done though at a longer range. Though, in city combat a big one was abused: building would lose their hitboxes at far enough distance. It wasn't even a long distance, but just enough and you could shoot through buildings. The best evidence of this is that you can see thermal markings of other players through a building, and be able to shoot them. I've been accused of cheating and reported plenty of times for it on PS4, since really it is an exploit.

    What this could mean though, is that shots could possibly be even further.

  12. They did Probably Limit The Range that u Can shoot someone with the sinper but i Remember me to a Trick to shoot at Infinite Range using A Thermal Helmet and Standing behind a Bush or so then maby u Cann see him (his Thermal Signatur) on any Range.
    Ps: dont know if this Still works but when i have tu gues Probebly not

    Next thing u cann try is when he is sitting in a Car or in a Copper

  16. I could be wrong but i think there is a hard limit to the bullets of different guns in the game (e.g. pistol shoots shorter than a sniper) and even the heavy sniper has its limits. The only thing that doesnt dissapear eventually is the grenade launcher.

  18. I remember DarkViperAU saying in a video that there was an error coding the snipers that gives them a range of about 7k meters meaning if you can line it up it is theoretically possible to kill someone from almost the entire length of the map. He makes facts and glitches videos and has thousands of small info bits like this

  20. when you calculate the distance did you consider your height or you just measured the straight line? in the video seem to be only the straight line, but with you height the distance would be even more

  22. You can get a little bit more rendering distance in your visual settings on the game also I've had luck using a VR headset and setting my character the first person to get slightly better rendering distances as well and Mark 2 weapons most of them can be equipped with tracers

  24. There are tracer rounds, but you have to get them through the bunker you buy in online. It's through the research mechanic & there's no way to just get tracer rounds, you basically have to research everything.

    But Joe could also fire a flare or throw a molotov on the ground to start a fire. That would be easier to see at night, obviously.

  33. I go for long range snipes in different games, including GTA Online. I highly recommend you unlock the explosive rounds and try those. In that case, you can shoot vehicles, which will render on screen past 2,000m.

    I got a 1,200m snipe on random players using this method (on my channel for reference).

    Also, you can use the waypoint system on the map to accurately measure distance.

    Great work!! ❤

  35. Myth, deathmstch and freemode have different range. In one of the heist setups, pac standard, the convoy. I used to snipe the incoming helis from calafia bridge towards the city. I’m sure it was further than that
