Those pings are high, 60ms+ is very high. Try and find servers with 30ms. Also, what rate is the server? Have you found your self only on 100Hz servers? If so, try and stick to 30Hz to see if it changes anything.
I can't remember the exact tick rates, but you get the jist.

It has nothing to do with ping. I used Ethernet cable instead of wifi and my ping dropped to 54ms and i am still facing the same issues. I face it with high ping and low ping players, in regional and international servers. Whether my ping is 54ms or 174ms or whether the enemy players has 10ms ping or 150ms ping, it makes no difference. The above issues seem to be independent of pings. And in BF4 it does not matter whether i am on a 30Hz, 40Hz, or 60Hz server. It is always a brief sound of 1-2 bullets hitting me and Im instantly dead with no hints that anyone is shooting at me before then. Even when the enemy is emptying a full machine gun magazine on me i dont feel it only till the last bullet that kills me. In all battlefield games. And no there is nothing better than fiber to home connection where I live, 150Mbps up and down, fully dedicated, way more than enough. But number of hops is high because I am inland, not east coast or west coast. And traceroute to BF servers gives 0% packet loss.
A-I dont feel any incoming damage until I'm dead. Machine guns in the hand of the enemy (SMGs, LMGs, Assault Rifles) they all feel like shotguns or sniper rifles. The enemy shoots at me for a while but I dont feel any incoming damage then all of a sudden my health drops to 0 and I hear a single bucket of bullets hitting me. *Whiz-Whiz Dead* even from the heavy machine guns. SMGs feel like shotguns in BF1. I always have zero time to react.
B- My own hit register is fine and no issues in inflicting damage on the enemy.

I finally recorded a compilation of the issues i am facing. Any thoughts gentlemen?
What happened @00:25 and @1:07 and @2:11 and @2:55 and @3:49 and @3:59 is what I always experience in BF1 in all servers regardless of ping. Enemy is using LMGs and SMGs but i feel them like shotgun bullets. Is this normal?
@2:42 no incoming damage is felt or heard except when I am dead, I hear one shot. He was using an SMG.
@3:07 is the "pre-fire" around the corner i experience against all enemies in all servers
i am playing right now at 37ms ping and experiencing the exact same issues. i dont think it is ping related.

I disagree on both notes zia.
As i said in my post just above yours, i had the exact same issues @37ms ping. Here's the video:
I am looking forward for an expert opinion from a different angle, other than ping.
And not everybody experiences this unfair gameplay:
1- The players whose bullets appear so fast with no damage indicators rack up kills and and always tend to have a very high K/D. That's because there victims are unaware they are being shot at until it is too late. I really want to know what makes it that way for those killers. I am talking about a trend of gameplay and scores over 6 months.
2- Watch youtube vids of BF1 multiplayer gameplay, a significant number of BF1 streamers dont face the unfair gameplay that I do and it runs very fair and smooth for them.

My friend had a similar thing with battlefront 2
In the game options there is a ping site setting which determines which EA data centre you connect to. His was set to a different region.
Changing it back to the UK sorted his issues out.
Im not sure if the battlefield games have the same option but it would be worth looking.

from what im seeing in the video you are using a low damage weapon and not aiming accuratley enough.shooting first missing or not accurately enough to kill them.
as for ping anything upto 100 is fine even 150 if you a decent player.if you decent you adjust.30-60 lol.
