I have figured something that it may make noobs life easier, like me.

when doing a combo don't center the pointer on the core, just make it a little bit upper and more left.
you can see why is that, if you played ONS-Dria (or any large map) and released a core without combo it. (use a custom pointer, make it a black cross)
you will notice that the core will not be in the center of the pointer. it goes to the right bottom corner of the pointer (the black cross).

I believe that also depends on the selected hand - if you use left hand, it will go to the left bottom corner. Yet UT2004 Shock Balls are rather precise compared to UT3 Shock balls that have collision a lot higher than the effect, and it's annoying...

What GreatEmerald said, it's caused by the offset from the hand side. Centered and hidden weapons don't have this problem. I love hidden weapons ;]

Whoops, srry for being away too long. I almost forgot about this post since no one seemed to post for a while. ;) Thx for the tip Rawashdeh_omar. I will naturally not add it to the suggestions list.

Just kidding. :D Actually, though, yeah I have noticed that in all UT games I have played (UT99, UT2004) the shots are not quite on the center of the crosshair. That really ticked me off way back in my ut99 days. Then again I only just started playing with a hidden/centered weapon and since forgotten about it. ;) Thx again omar for bringing that up.

watch out for other people who shock combo your own balls

in other words he shoots your ball as soon as you fire it

thus killing you
