In Response To: Re: Hey Jonny, a question... (uberfoop) : 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. If you see yourself get shot through a wall, then you were not behind the wall on the *host* at the time the weapon was fired on the host. The following diagram shows this - if the shooter fires at the red line, you will die (and the bullet will appear to go through the cover). But if he fired at the blue line, you will survive. But in both cases you are not behind cover on the shooter's box.
Yes, the host allows for a small window of time after death where if the client says "I shot this guy" the gun will still fire. In many cases this is a headshot and both players will die.
