<div class="IPBDescription">..dunno where to put this</div> Hi everybody,
I've just played on a server combat and recognized some wierd bug, exploit or hack.
The Guy called himself NSPLAYER and everytime he shot me it seems like he emptied his whole clip in miliseconds.
The first time I imputed it to lag because he still had a lmg and one sg-guy shot me, too -> dead
After that I blinked up to him the long stairs in daimos and killed him with one focus-slash, but again he dropped my hp from full to ~110 hp (0ap) with his lmg in ONE frame.
The following situations I died multiple times to him, although I attacked with full hp, because he hit me with multiple sg-shots in the time of one normal shot.
I've even heard the sound of multiple hits in this short time as if you blink into a group of shotgunners!
So here is my question:
Is this known as an exploit or hack and
is it related to some special server/net-settings??
This Thread is not about whining about cheaters but I really wanna know if this is known, if the dev-team could fix this in anyway or if it is a job for vac/cheating-death.
Edit: I've read that ex_interp could cause such issues before ex_interp 0 was locked !?

False.
If he's shooting noticibly faster than everyone else he's probably speedhacking though.
Try to get a demo of him (record demoname in console and then stop when you want the recording to stop, the demo will be found in your ns directory) and upload it to some free webhost and link it, and we'll be able to help you better.
=== edit === Just saw this in Grepdashv's notes

150*2 = 300 damage to cara = 30 bullets
300-110 = 190 damage to hp = 19 bullets
so he missed 1 bullet from an unupgraded lmg, or a few from an upgraded one, but it sounds like a speedhack.
although he didn't move fast.
I thought (till now) speedhacking only effects your movement, but now it's getting clear.
Thanks, my question is answered.
