another I hate puffy ack thread

[Citabria]

I hate puffy ack.

I hate it when it shoots through mountains.

I hate it when a square box of puffy ack with random puffs inside the box tracks the enemy fighter im chasing and kills me while it ignores the bombers over the CV.

I hate when it shoots through mountains and hits me when im flyign NOE on a 5k mountain.

I hate fighting AI when flying in an online game.

remove puffy ack and make all 88mm/cv puff acks manned guns or set its ceiling to 10k.

just do somthign to remove this nonstop annoying feature of aces high

But Fester, Puff ack LOVES you.

I tend to disagree on puffy ack, only seems to hit me when its conviently needed to hit me.

I.e one day im 12k coming towards a CV to bomb it, right before I go in my dive, BAM i explode and back in tower, nice kill puffy ack.
Last night in TT arena map, was hovering in puffy ack for 10-15 minutes in a Dora, never got hit once.

Its like puffy ack senses when your a threat

Something tells me Fester died for the second time this month..

I will agree, puffy ack does suck. I dunno how many times I've been hit and had my plane just blow up from one hit.

"hate" is such a strong word ... maybe it should be "dislike"

Yeah, i hate puffies too. Mostly because they much more dangerous for fighters than bombers, what is nonsense of course.

At least there are no 88's at fields and towns anymore.

Thank you, Johnny

Make puff  effective against buffs, and much less (much much less) effective against fighters.

Make puff create damage more, than kills.

Make puff more smart (prioritize targets).

Do not remove them from the game.

Real ballistics so 375mph planes miles away don't get zeroed like they were standing still point blank.

But it looks and sounds so cool.

[hubsonfire]

Puffy ack is complete crap.

I have the same idea.

[Xasthur]

I agree with the idea of prioritising buffs as puffy ack targets.

A 109 weaving through 5k of alt at 15k should not be a feasible target to puffy ack.... yet it seems that I recieve critical engine damage whilst the level-bombing lancs below me are not targeted at all.

Puffy ack is a necessary addition to the game but it needs to be a little less deadly to small aircraft at long ranges.

I have never been killed or damaged by puffy ack when I am in visual range of the CV it is coming from...... only when OUTSIDE visual range. That does not seem logical at all.
