When someone thought they caught Nessy cheating because in one of his vids he was zoomed in with his scope and got hit by someone firing and his scope did not unzoom?

I was just playing on a sniper, no-shields server with infinite nades, FF off, (yes it's noobish, it relaxes me at bedtime).

A team mate, trying to disrupt the game, was tossing plasma nades all over us, sometimes shooting us, etc.

He stuck me with a nade, he shot me several times, all while I was zoomed. NO UNZOOM! Ever. Not a fluke.

While I never joined in and said Nessy cheated, I did say I'd never experienced an instance of staying zoomed while taking fire. Well, now I have.

I knew those were wrongful accusations. That kind of cheat would be hard to make, I'd assume.

That would probably be one of the easiest cheats you can make. Though, I don't know why anyone would really need it.

Just let it drop dude. Even if he was cheating you can obviously tell all of his kills are legit.

Threads about individual members are illegal. So stfu and drop it, or you'll get your ass blacklisted.

Dude, dalmedya, you're the one who needs to stfu. Simon isn't necessarily making a thread about Nessy, he's just mentioning a moment where he didn't go unzoomed at all. Even if it is beating a dead horse.

I blame the netcode.

A) Since when?
B) Send the FBI
C) It WAS more about the "no unzoom phenomena" than about the individual in question, but I said nothing bad about him, just took a tiny step to show he was not cheating.
D) It happened repeatedly throughout the game, so I think it had less to do with the netcode than with the game settings. I think it was because FF was off. When a team mate would fire at me my shields would light up, but no damage would get done, but if I naded myself, he'd get a betrayal. I did that a few times to try to get the offender autobanned, but gave up after 4 tries when he didn't get banned.
