I have been reading these forums for a long time but just decided to participate. Siggi has a point about strange goings on in game, sure this time he may be mistaken, but let me relate a little story to you.

Yesterday I was on a server and had a ping ranging between 45 and 60. It was team hunt and there was a guy on the opposing team who seemed invincible. He seemed to absorb a ridiculous amount of ammo without any real effect. So we began to watch him closely to see if it was our aim, or really something wrong. Myself and two others came out of the allied spawn and he ran in from the back way. He was surrounded by me and two other guys all unloading our thompsons into him with the blood patch you can really see your hits. Needless to say we riddled him and all three of us ended up dead as he ran off.
This wasn't lag, bad aim, etc. This was something very bazaar. His buddy then began to switch teams towards the end of a round to obviously tell him where our last few men were. As soon as he would switch teams, his buddy would find whoever was hiding on our team. They were either on the phone, or roger wilco.

Crap like this is what ruins games. I have played every FPS you can name and I can tell when something is funny or something is bad on the server end, etc. I am not going to name these 2 because I don't think that solves anything. My prediction is that there is already rampant tweaking of the code and this game could very well head down the fork of the road with CS in the near future. Let's hope not.
