TURN OFF COLLISIONS.

Why ?

Everyone is tired of hearing everyone complain about the collisions.

No ... everyone is tired of trying to explain to the narrow minded how the collision model works ... and despite the best efforts, supplied with actual film screenshots ... they still don't get it.

If it favors one and harms the other, then it is not fair and shouldn't be a factor in the game.

It only favors those who truely DO NOT collide and harms those that DO COLLIDE. Sounds fair to me.

If it is just a game and not real, then it shouldn't matter if we fly threw one another

It would matter greatly ... I can see people diving on or into their opponent with guns blazing and not giving a crap that they will need to pull off the attack else they will collide. All you would see is planes all over the place flying through each other with guns going full bore.

Thanks ... but no thanks. I would quit this game in a second if they turned off collisions and killshooter ... and I am sure that many would follow suit.

It was off when I started playing this game, just turn it back off please!

Bollocks ... It has ALWAYS been on in the MA arenas.

Do not change the collision model, it is the perfect compromise for internet lag the way it is.

The problem is your poor understanding of how it works. Stop ramming into people and it won't be a problem.

The way I see it is that they happen because one or maybe both pilots have taken too long to either move or take a shot.

My main gripe is when you blow off their elevators and the wreckage flips up into my plane.  It doesn't happen often but when it does its my fault for not blasting them from further out.

I'd rather have the random effect than an explosion for both parties.  50% of the time you maybe ok or only partly damaged rather than dust.

Learn to fly
Learn to shoot
Learn to see the enemy

Thats all there is to it no more collisions

I can't believe threads like this on the topic of ramming are still going on. I thought it was already discussed to death.  (I wish I could find the Gif someone had a while back about beating a dead horse.)

Not sure why you would say that.

I would say just the opposite.

It looks like they both have pretty solid connections to me.

That is not a "huge" diff. between the two Front Ends at all, and quite close.



Have ya' ever been on a CV and see a friendly 1-1.5k out taking off in thin air?

THAT'S lag.

There are people that play this game who if you did the above screen shot's with, they would be well over a 1k diff. on Front Ends.




Oh yeah, collisions don't favor either person.

You either hit 'em, or you don't.

Quit flying into 'em and you won't have any problems.

It's interesting you make that point Lute. I once got killed by this guy in a spixteen I was watching. He was diving down some 1000 odd yards off my starboard wing, I saw him firing and I'm thinking, "what is this guy doing?:huh "
Suddenly I see him stop firing and pull up just as the sounds of cannon hits resound through my headset and my wing falls off. :rofl I bet he was thinking I was afk of something, because I didn't move at all, I was watching to see what he was going to do before I committed to any ACM.

It's when the up from the CV that you can "SEE" the lag.

Granted, in flight planes are not QUITE Where you think they are of course.  I always "assume" the con on my 6 is 200' closer than what I think they are.  Certain players DO give me "fits" when I fight them because of their connection.  It's not drastic, but if they are on a particularly horrific connect, it throws off all my timings (jukes, etc).  

I was in the DA w/ someone the other week, and I couldn't QUITE get 'em figured out.  What should have been a difficult fight, turned into quite a rough series of duels.  I found out later they live 1/2 way around the world, and it made "sense" when I looked back @ the fights we had.

So while it's somewhat noticable in flight, but when they up a CV is when you can really "tell" how horrible the connect is.
