Melee Magnetism Does Not Connect

The Melee Magnetism is atrocious a lot of the times, there will be situations were the melee literally does not even connect whether that be when you in a melee fight with someone and you miss while literally hitting them in their mouth, because of the way melee's impacts a targets hitbox after you aggressively lunge forward. I have watched as even quick melee's will not even connect at point blank range, literally missing a target. I don't know if this is because I play on PC, but as I mentioned the magnetism is just horrible for close range combat when not doing things perfectly without any hindering factors. Such as a small box being right next to you when you lunge, getting pushed back after the collision in this game sends you flying, or even getting stabbed by someone in your face. Even getting melee'd by UESC when you go to melee will even cause you to miss while literally hearing the knife hit metal on the UESC robots body. This has been an issue since the server slam, now going into 2 weeks + of launch. I hope this gets looked into and fixed because I already know it's gonna happen again, if there was a way to post clips I can literally show over 7+ instances of this blatantly happening within this past weekend alone. As I just mentioned also, there are multiple instances where you can hear the audio of a melee attack connecting but there is no hit marker or even hit detection to begin with. You can quick melee someone and it not even connect simply because there was a wall within your peripheral vision on the right hand side that caused you to completely miss a point blank stab. In that same boat, I have also lunged someone halfway across a room because the heavy lunge attacks magnetism is super up in the air with the way it works, overall: Melee is super strong for it to not be working as it should, especially if other people can kill you within 2 - 3 stabs if they have a maxed melee build
