Fellshadow, I know exactly what you mean. same thing has been happening to me more often than not. It was getting frustrating for awhile and still is. I thought it was a connection issue and in times it may be.
I was playing a team instant on the lighthouse map and I was looking for the other team and hardly could see where anyone was. I was running all over the place too. I stopped and camped out and all of a sudden, zoom, right past me runs one of my team, fully cloaked out, only saw his name go by and he was at the other end in about 6 seconds.
I look up and see the scrolling update list showing him killing every member of the other team. I checked the scoreboard and he had already killed 50 by that time and everyone else has only 2 or 3. I left the game......
I learned to keep checking the scoreboard often from that episode, cause hackers are not always on the other team.
My other issue was I was forgetting to hold down the left shift key while aiming and firing. That helped alot! I couldn't figure out why I could go right up behind someone and shoot right in the back nearly point blank range, and they turn around and boom I'm dead cause I uncloaked and have no armor!
Last thing, when I press my spacebar to jump it takes a half second or so for me to actually jump in game. Does anyone else have that same issue?
Have Fun!
The scoreboard isn't that accurate, as a lot of the hackers hack because they are bad. Unless they have an invincibility hack, they WILL have a few deaths. Sometimes they are so bad that they don't even have that good of a kill:death ratio. (I had this one guy who was using the cloak hack but he was really bad so he kept dieing anyways) Doesn't mean these people should get away with hacking though.
Why would you hold down the sprint key when shooting people?
