San Andreas Multiplayer

I haven't seen another thread on this since there was a public release a couple of months ago. Unfortunatly it was only going for a couple of days then it went back to internal releases only. I just thought of it again yesterday so I was checking out Multi THeft Auto and seeing it was still only internal, only to realize I was playing sa-mp, not MTA. So sure enough, sa-mp is in public beta.

Its about the same as it was a couple of months ago, but at least its more permanent.

Anyone else been playing it?

My only complain is I can't kill anyone!!! I unload clip after clip with the M4 yet it take a sliver from their health bar. I unload shotty rounds into someone right close only to have them turn around and knock me dead with a few uzi shots. What the hell?? And it seems you can't run people over to kill them??

So I dont get wtf is up with it. It might be pretty fun otherwise. Good enough to play until MTA deathmatch is released anyway (I never played MTA VC, but it was very popular and still is played, so is probably of decent quality). As it stands, MTA is only racing which seems pretty pointless to me. I have way better racers (arcade and sims) for racing online.
 
Yeah I don't get it. Aiming at the feet helps, and the M4 and AK47 don't seem to register hits hardly at all, but most weapons don't. I've seen quite a few cheaters and other BS. I still don't get why I can't kill anyone. Er wait I got one guy. Then I unloaded at point blank, about 12 shotgun rounds to a guy yet he nails me with a couple and I'm dead. I was aiming torso and lower. I've noticed that aiming at the head does NOTHING, and though makes a blood animation, doesn't do any damage. So its not really registering the hit no matter what weapon. But even aiming at toros and legs it just rarely seems to take any damage form them even though it shows a hit.

So I dunno.. if I just suck, or its bugged or what, but some people know how to kill or at least understand how its bugged so they can compensate, cause I get dropped quickly by some people all the time.

Not sure its worth playing if I can't kill anyone.

edit: In addition to what I've posted above, I read ping and # of players can obviously affect hit registering. Well I was pinging 75 and below which is just awesome for my POS cable connect @ 384/128, plus it was only a 40-45/100 server. I can see missing some long range ones but the ones right up close are just werd to try hitting all over their body with multiple weapons yet nothing really does much cept maybe one hit registers.
 
I guess no one is playing this due to that? I tried it once more yesterday and unloaded into guys with no effect (but there was blood + hurt animation) yet I see this guy running towards me outta the corner of my eye and he drops me in two shotty rounds.
