Let me paint the scene. I'm playing UT2004, humming quietly to myself, when I happen to line up my crosshairs perfectly with an opponent (just pretend I'm capable of that, for the sake of discussion). I click at this instant with my Shock Rifle primary. My ping at that moment was 100 ms; so 100 ms after firing, I see the shock bolt appear. However, my opponent has moved a little in that 100 ms, so it looks like the bolt missed him (even though my crosshairs were right on him when I fired the weapon on my UT client).
Is UT correcting for this network latency automatically? In other words, did I still score my hit? Also, something that's been bugging me: does the minigun behave like a hitscan weapon or a projectile weapon (the animation really looks projectile-ish)?
My apologies if this has already been covered. I searched as best I could think to do. |

its 100 ms.. you have to be aiming at his hair to miss him at that speed.
i mean lagg is always posible, but in insta gib sometimes you hit if you think you miss, and visa verca.
you might also just missed him.. i dont know.. but i wouldent say hes a cheater. |
