| Re: Hey Jonny, a question... | |

In Response To: Hey Jonny, a question... (RC Master) : In reach, you can headshot someone and still die to them at the same time : (mutual headshots, or a them killing you in some other way). Does this : only happen when you both die on the same frame on the host, or is there : some other lag compensation there? I know in Halo 3 it was said the host : would wait a few frames for a 'clash' melee before resolving a melee : battle - is there a similar thing at work in Reach for headshots? : I imagine it might be to do with the hitscan - so the client says 'I hit that
Yeah, it's probably just the client-side aspect of Reach's hit detection. Reach seems to allow for a fair amount of timing and position nudging client-by-client, and this comes hugely into play for the hitscan stuff. It's probably the same reason people get "sniped through walls"; the client probably actually shot before you were behind the wall, or at least before their console was told that you were.
