How can you tell if someone cheats on Trials?

Yesterday we got to 8-0 for the second time (yay), and we’ve not made it to the Lighthouse yet, so the next match was very important to us. We came up against these dudes that had bulletproof heads. I’m positive I did, not one, but a few clean headshots that did not count (zero damage). Absolutely sure. Is it possible that they were cheating, or could there be another reason? If we find ourselves in a similar situation again, is there something we can do? They game’s not perfect, I know that, and it’s not the first time that lag caused confusing results. But yesterday’s loss hurt and felt so unfair.

  • They're playing Trials. No, just kidding. I'm not sure I would be able to tell -- the only time it would be obvious would be predictable "good connection -- oh wait, now they're teleporting everywhere when I get the drop on them -- and now they're back to good connections." Otherwise, I think that's something Bungie will have to investigate. And as for headshots not registering, that is more likely lag than active cheating -- it looked like a good kill to you; on their end, they'd already moved, but it hadn't updated your machine yet.
