Everything fine until this patch. Better than fine. Collisions didn't occur as easily and bullets were no longer rubber.
Now it seems like they reverted back to the old collision code or netcode or something, dunno. I'd love to know EXACTLY what happened.
So now, here are my issues:
-5 second freezes with a stutter in sound, thought I was going to have to hard down the system only to come back to a tree flying into my face.
-On someones 6, 200 away in a tight turn.. I KNOW MY KI84 VERY WELL. I shoot, straight through the guy. It wasn't until his engine was knocked down from ack that I was able to get hits on him when he leveled out. What was bad before has gotten worse.
-Net code looks weird. I used to get a bunch of up/down chopping lines for HOST QUEUE TIME...now I get a straight line with some dips toward bottom. Then it resides back to a solid line about a 1/4" from the bottom.
-Varience looks different. Not smooth like it used to be, all bumpy...but instead of above the line now its below??
Not sure what those last two mean really...just throwing it out there.
If I keep getting these 5 sec freezes during inopportune times I too am going to probably take a small break from flying fighters and just drop bombs or tank. (hush about quitting, I'll quit when the stick is pryed out of my cold dead hands!
It doesn't appear as if this last patch fixed anyone, it only seems to have hurt many more.
