That happens in all shooters, network code and technology hasn't risen to the point where the "real" model of the game on the main server can be replicated with 100% accuracy on all the other nodes (copies, players). Practically everyone is playing with a slightly different "model" of the game when they are online. Years ago, when I worked with LucasArts/Totally Games on X-Wing vs Tie Fighter, our team created some "cheap" tricks to sort of compensate, and to be honest, I don't think technology has really gone much further since then (1997).
BTW, that was a nice kill streak. I liked MW 2 a lot for the online play, do you think Black Ops is at least comparable in terms of balance and fun?
