What the hell is spec cheating?

"You're clear around the next corner. Wait. Down the stairs. Dude with a flame-thrower. He's hurt bad though. He's at the bottom. Drop a nade. Perfect. K, venom still in ducts. Jump the rail but watch out for the lt and med behind the crates. They're feeding each other right now. Good, they didn't even see you. K, warroom, ven on left, faust on the filing cabinet to right."

Gee.. that was hard to envision. I must be a writer to come up with something so crazy.

Yeah except on ECGN once you get off the beach you can get whacked from any direction, including from below and above. Actually...strike that...you can get whacked from behind on the beach too, after the first 20 - 30 secs.

Add to that voice server lag...it's just not feesable...the players are just too erratic to be sure anyone will be anywhere even a second or two after you say it...spec cheating causes more problems than it solves in large, noob-filled servers.

So...sure, in theory your idea might work...in actual practice it's not possible...
