Someone needs to redirect wilb3r and Draggon to this thread so they can see how the collision model works.

So if lag is the problem why does the same thing happen offline? :confused:

What? If you fly into a drone offline you break something. What is so hard to understand?

Yea but, they don't If there's not lag offline shouldn't their wing come off if you hit it with your wing?

The lag theory to this can't be true. I only live 65 miles from the servers and i have a ping that stays between 30 - 45.
For that matter it rarely gets above the 30's. So I'm not buying that at all. If its lag then I should be the one that flies away from these collision without so much as a scratch.
Not vice versa.

Killer it is one of those things that no matter how much info u have u are still gonna lose. I have passed airlanes on one side and the wing on the oppsite side falls out.  But I gave up on in.

I want to add one thing. The drones offline don't function like normal aircraft in the game. You can shoot a wing off, light them on fire, heck I even turned the B24 into a flying cigar and it still kept circling the airfield. I'm not sure if it's a bug or just the way HTC set it up but collisions vs the offline drones won't work because they don't die correctly. Try it, take a 262 up and blow the wing off the B24, it won't fall to the ground.

Yes, I know that I'm not sure about those offline planes I don't think they have a flight model but, I do believe they have a damage model. I've collided with other people in other online air combat sims and we both blew up but, In AH it's different. :headscratch:

How so? If I have that fast of connection then its the other guys that gonna being seeing things further behind than me.

But now your gonna say that "you have to add the lags times together to get total lag." If thats true then it completely blows the lag theory out of the water.
Still not buying it.
