Trials cheaters

I always thought the complaints about cheaters was unfounded and exaggerated, but after seeing players making only head shots and receive little damage taken, I am a believer. You know they are cheating if they just stand in one spot without trying to evade and you get insta killed. Apparently to compete you either need to be really good or use available tools that give you an edge. Wonder how many "flawless" players used something to give them an "edge?"

    Most of what people think is cheating is just lag. Everything you describe in your post is classic lag you get when you have players with latent connections, i.e they are very far from the server and the server has to predict their actions. It causes teleporting, inability to damage, movement speed differential, your reactions seem delayed vs their bullets seem to all arrive instantly at once--all of which makes some players seem to be in god mode. I've made mash-up videos of lag as experienced in other games (Battlefield) . I might have to make a few for Destiny.
