Is it me or......
« on: February 12, 2010, 03:38:39 AM »
I have noticed recently that many of my AP rounds do little or no damage especially when I am very close to my target.  I have also recently had many of my AP rounds go right through the other tank as if it was not there and then 1 shot from him and I am killed.  Is it a computer setting or lag?  I did buy a new computer about 2 months ago but the problem seems to be getting worse. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Easy solution:
Get outta the tank and fly a plane! heheh





Seriously though, no clue, since I don't tank, but sounds like the "rubber bullet" effect some see in aircraft.
Is your VSYNC turned ON?  Ensure it is.  If your FPS exceeds the refresh rate of your monitor it can cause rubber bullets.

depends entirely on the angle of the projectile!!! ive had 88MM shells ricochet off M3's before also depends on how fast your target is moving and angle!
