IIRC this plagued ARMA 2 too.
Basically, rotation is not synchronized properly / fast enough. Rather, it seems that the final rotation of a character, etc. is the only thing that's broadcasted.

Steps To Reproduce
- Join a multiplayer server with two people.
- Have one person turn quickly while the other watches.
- The observer will see slow rotation, even if the other player turns very quickly.
Additional Information
Unit orientation/direction updates in MP appear to be limited by a fixed (and very slow) "turn rate" of approximately 180°/second (judging by the video linked above). This causes a variety of visual disparities between what diffent players see, and can cause other players to appear to be running backward/sideways or bullets coming out of their weapons at 90° angles.
Possibly related to MP interpolation/prediction.

Thanks for putting this together, great video. This is indeed a major issue, looking back at playing Arma 2 it is obvious this problem is present there as well.

Yeah pretty sure we had this in ARMA2, but for sure this needs addressed. Thanks for reporting MulleDK19, and great video.
