Why do we still moan on wallhackers in multiplayer first-person shooters ?
Isn't it possible to perform occlusion culling for all players server-side ? For example, send player xyz information to client only when the player is visible in client's frustum and not occluded by any object ? Even if the collision-geometry is very simplified, most of the time cheater won't receive tactical information.
Why not do this ?
