on a similar note I often get shot and still hear my own sr8 firing sound while my player is dropping to the floor... is this cause I got fragged by a high pinger or something ? I never killed anybody this way even when seeing what could/should/was my shot as clear hit. So I gather I hear the sound but no shot is fired.
I believe that's good ole q3 your bullet disappears when you die thing. Atleast that's what I've been told. I get this a lot too and I know I'm right on the guy, my shot goes off on my end. I think the shot never gets to the server or something along those lines. I know that the person I'm shooting at, that shoots me doesn't hear the shot at all if I'm not mistaken. I know there's some sort of explanation for it I just can't quite come up with it. Anyways maybe one of those SID guys can help us out here.
