Gunnery
« on: June 27, 2004, 09:14:44 PM »
Maybe it's just my imagination, but with the last couple of patches it seems like the gunnery has become much more letahal. I hear one hit on my plane & im back at the tower or else find myself spirling to my virtual death.
Also, when I get a single hit on a plane, it explodes, no more hit sprites:(
1 other thing, the areana has become one huge furball, no small fights are to be found anymore:(
It kinda sucks. . .

Probably since you have to be in the 200-300 range to do real damage. The ammount of hits that are seen might not be the ammount registerd. There are more bullets going into you than you can hear/see. And since its such a close range, it's like shooting point blank. :D

This is easy. Hits do not equal hit sprites.  I get kills all the time I didnt think I got hits.  I used to get really pissed "how did he fly thru that line of bullets?".  Those crossing shots AH just doesn't display but fire way anyhow. more is going on than you see.
