New version gunnery
« on: May 12, 2007, 01:33:43 PM »
Is anyone else having trouble with their gunnery since the new terrain came out?  It seems that my bullets pass through people without having any effect.  I think it may be my reduced FPS since the update...

Anyways, i went to check to see if it was just me being paranoid, or if i am indeed missing more shots now.

I always score as attack.

My gunnery this tour is currently at 10.77%

Last tour it was 16.47% and the two tours before that 18.01% and 16.85%.

This sucks, it seems i set up perfect shots and i just miss.  Anyone else having problems? :( :(

Game just seems freaky at the moment - damage wise. Bits dropping off with no ping noises, tracers appearing after I've been sawn in two, losing horizontal stabs like they were cardboard (and doing the same to others) 300 hit sprites and no damage.

Checked ping and it seems normal, no packet loss etc.

I have been seeing mass warping, taking hits when the person shooting at me has passed and is 400 away / people shooting and hitting me with not facing me, people taking a second or two to take damage after i nail them, constant text lag...

I just assumed it is my connection.

Yeah I'm seeing tracers go right into enemy aircraft and no hit sprites. I've also had a lot of warping issue with the last release. Hopefully it will all go away with the next patch.

I dont know what's goin' on.
But yeah thing's dont take damage like they use to, i can set up a perfect shot with my .50's and watch everything fly by my target.

When i do get hits stuff altho falls off the same, i dont see planes blowing up or loosing major parts nearly as much as before.
The thing is i played with the m16 yesterday i could not land SQUAT even with the enemy coming directly at me, when i did hit..pfft nothing would fall off.
Heck even had to drop some 100 rounds into someones engine before it would even start smoking. As it is a Gv with at least one .50 could at least defend them selfs a little bit, after landing some 100 engine hits and seeing no radiator smoke,or oil i know jeeps/lvt's and other light armor is useless.


Perhaps some bullets got changed a bit.

I think i am just loosing my skill.

I don't have any problems, but I play with other's skins off...I think that may have sumfin' to do with it, at least on the first plane you see wearing that skin per play session.

I've seen mine drop about 4%, but I've been blaming it on my lack of skill. Thanks for giving me a rationalization opportunity!

Hey Zazen long time no see.   ;)   Same thing here too, I don't have the skins turned on and no problem on my end.   You might want to try turning off the skins and see if that works.  If so then HTC should be made aware of the problem.   I know in past versions I had problems with some of the skins, but when HTC put in the option to turn them off I did.   Any problems I had with the skins went away.
