High-pings in Quake aren't that much different from high-pings in
QuakeWorld.  The only difference is that there is client-side prediction
that shows the user where he should aim for optimum effect.

Given the time at which QuakeWorld was released, I doubt that hitscan
attacks are calculated client-side, but it was the first game where there
was a fully functional Aim-bot...
