seafire/B25
« on: June 09, 2008, 01:57:09 AM »
I know this was probably just lag but thought I would bring it up just in case (sad to say, no film). I won't say who the player was but tonight, several knights were scratching their heads about how much damage this one individual Seafire was taking. I know I lite him up with several hundred rounds with 50s, plus two other guys hit him quite bit with 20MM and their .50s, but nothing came off plane nor any fluid hits.


Last night, B25  was coming in straight and level. I was little bit higher then he was so I dove down, he went straight up for about 8K and still have enough E to get to level flight. I went to film to check out who it was, and whoever it was, was able to somehow block their name out.

I was roping some seafires near their CV in a 25H yesterday or the day before.. Can't really tell if you mean whether it's the 25 or Seafire that went up 8k, in your last paragraph.

Sorry about that. The B25 was the one that went straight up for about 8K (give or take)

The Blocked name in film viewer is lag i think.  I have had the same thing happen and re-logging helped. (i was the one that showed up blank in my film).  Odd things happened in that film.

i have been killed before by a tank when i was camping the hanger.  He spawned, turned his turret and killed me before showing up on my screen.  I checked the film and it only showed me and the other guy that was camping the hanger with me.  He was killed 3 seconds later by the same tank that killed me.  His film also showed no one in the area accept the 2 of us.  HTC said it was lag.  Wish I could get lag that reloaded my panzer in 3 seconds!

There's a lag time between when the enemy shows up on your screen and when he actually spawned. I've always assumed that this was purposely coded so as to stop spawn campers and vulchers.
