Collisions (Enemy)
« on: June 27, 2004, 10:31:19 PM »
HT are you planning on turning collisions back on? The reason I ask is because the HO problem is worse than ever. I usually try to avoid HOs and gain angles but it's alot tougher now.

Faceshooters are now just aiming for your plane, plowing into you and pulling the trigger from 1000 all the way through you. It's ridiculous. I was hoping you were testing something and planned on turning it back on soon. Please tell me I'm right.

When/if you do turn it back make it where any collision kills both planes. That's the only fair way to do it and will make for best gameplay IMHO.

PS... Keep up the good work, AHII is looking great! :D

Edit to add: Also people on your 6 or cherrypickers at 400mph have no fear of collision. Now they just fly through you with no fear of damage. Part of the fun was getting close, firing and then having to avoid the plane parts. ;)

It's pretty bad in the MA as you can imagine XJ. Very gamey. :(

The reason both planes don't die in colissions is because both planes don't hit eachother due to internet lag. it would SUCK to die becasue somebody rammed you on his FE while on your FE was actually 100 yards off.

I lost a rudder to a disintegrating bogey part last night.

Definitely no shots were fired at me by that bogey.

I think that possibly the gunnery hit boxes were reduced in size, and they are probably used to determine if you have a collision.  So we may find that we are now missing collisions that would happened in AH1.

I actually was thinking the same thing. I have experienced a colision before but alot of times now I feel like I am not coliding when I am riding the edge where I would have done in AH1.

The hit shell / area being smaller might be it.

Or they could have left collisions off on the arena setup.

I collided with a Ki-61 and died last night.

I don't think they are off.

No its not.  The only fair way to do it is the way it is being done.  Lag doesn't allow you to do it any other way.
