Massively cheating? - DSDragsdal - 07-27-2009
I'm all new on Las Venturas Playground, and have a simple, but very disturbing question:
"Are every damn player on that server cheating?!"
I've played several online FPS games and consider myself a gamer a bit above aveage, but either have all my skills went to hell overnight, or something very fishy is going on.
Some of the observations include firefights, where I'm at full health, full armor and armed with a AK47, fighting someone with no armor and just a DE but gets killed in seconds despite that blood and gore sprays out my opponents head.
Result: he walks from the fight unharmed..
WTF!!!!
And this is not just a single coincidence as I've been the victim of several of these fights..
What the hell is going on? Cause I'm about to quit the game after only 3 hours of play..

You're obviously new to sa-mp
anyways, due to it's incredibly bad sync, you have to lead aim > aim a bit in front of your player, this varies a bit so you'll just have to practice around

There's also a pretty bad sync, which might make, that the player shooting at you are desynced to you, and thus not showing on his/her screen, that you're shooting, therefore not taking damage.

But does this apply even though that I obviously hit the character? I mean, the graphic shows a hit by bloodspatter and such.

yeah, on the other player's screen, it will look like you're shooting behind them
Re: Massively cheating? - Maka - 07-27-2009
Yeah, SA:MP isn't a normal FPS game. You need to aim infront of the character, depending on the other guy's lag. You gotta think where the other one would go.
Re: Massively cheating? - Phyc0 - 07-27-2009
Check the players ping before fighting them (press TAB). The higher their ping, the further ahead of their character you have to aim. If there ping is between 40-80, you can pretty much aim at their character. As for the players with pings like 1000+, report them.
Note that this isn't a problem with the gameserver, but SA:MP itself. The sync sucks. 
Re: Massively cheating? - DSDragsdal - 07-27-2009
Ok, I will give it another go.
But this syncproblem you mention can only apply when the other player is moving sideways from there I'm standing.
Ive also see it happend when he runs away or towards me. Even a guy stood completely still and still took absolutely no damage.
My concern is mostly, if this is a syncproblem, that my ping never gets over 90, cause it makes me a lot easier to hit. Which generally also is my experience..

1.Choose small, thiny skin
2.Buy Sawn of Shotgun + TEC 9 or Uzi
3.Run around your enemy shoting not straight at him, but little forward
