Gunnery

[sandwich]

WHY CANT I HIT PLANES ANYMORE?

 Anyone else just having a bad streak in AH?

 For me it's been worsening throughout the week.

 For 3 days AH wouldnt start. Yesterday I seemed to forget everything I've learned about E management and ACM. Now I cant even hit the water anymore.

I had that last tour. Happens every once in a while for me.

But if it's of any consolation to you: Your current hit% is still above average

Don't feel bad, some of us can't hit the broadside of a mountain from 1 foot away.  Be thankful that you can at least score some hits, wish my gunnery was decent instead of being in the crapper.

ack-ack

You think that's bad try missing the air.  Heck I can't hit the broad side of the barn with my guns.  Now my plane is another story.  It hits the ground, trees, other planes, bullets, and anything that gets in its way.  No can't say I have had that problem.

What is considered to be an "average" hit%?

STick with the planes with the same type of guns for a bit. Fly only planes with 50's, or the spits, or the german iron, but don't mix them up. Stick with the same type until you get your "groove" back and THEN start moving around.

The median hit% of all AH pilots with at least 3 sorties in fighter mode ( LWTour 118) is 3.38

Curious to see if the ratio is any different in the MW arena.

I suck shooting all the time. I have been back for almost two months and I still can't shoot anything even though I fly 99% of the time in Corsairs.

[mechanic]

i dump 2000 BBs every mossie sortie and its still giving me a decent hit%, try her sometime, shes a beast 


just don't ask me to hit anything with 50cals, i just cannot do it anymore.

Gotta love the snail and his wonderful illustrations.  I'm being serious by the way, no sarcasm here.  I enjoy all the information you put out there to us Lusche.

[Chalenge]

I had six sorties in fighters with a hit% at 24 until I ran into one warping P-51 and it was all over. Maybe next month.

illustrations?   they look like cold hearted facts from here.  It confirms to me the suckage of average pilots shooting ability  

[Latrobe]

I'm really terrible at my gunnery. I can't even hit someone 200 infront that had no idea I'm behind them. So, I've turned tracers off so they don't always give me away anymore  .

[hyster]

personaly i think its hard coded this way.
there's day's were i just look at a plane it it dies, other's im 200 behind a bomber and miss.
