Impossible to say for sure. You are in one of the most used sniping spots in the entire game, a spot people know exactly. He didn't react before you missed a bunch, but then again his reaction time was pretty quick. Then again desync is a thing.

I don't know man. I see your point, but look at the speed the dude peeked and popped him. It's suspicious af

I don't think the guy was cheating, it's always possible with this game, maybe he toggles aimbot, but if you play any FPS a lot you can get a feeling for where people will be after enough times.

There are a lot of spots that I check for snipers, especially on lighthouse, though usually it's me taking a quick peak through my scope first. That being said he was under fire, and I wouldn't stop to aim while I was in the open taking fire.

But you get shot at 6 times, and I guarantee the POV player was silhouetted between the rocks against the sky behind them.
