Killshoot yourself in a 262.
« on: February 04, 2013, 03:30:26 PM »
I attacked and destroyed two B17s which did not hit me and within moments I took a ping from town ack which then awarded me this achievement.

Oh... my... is this really in the beta right now?   

Hilarious, more so because I know it's gonna happen within a month or two to me.

I think I didn't explain it properly.  I did not lose my 262, well I did, but later in the sortie :uhoh.  I took a ping from a towns soft gun to be specific which did not damage any component perhaps a second or two from when I fired on the B17's.  It is very unlikely the B17 hit me as I never saw him firing and I did see the AAA round strike my plane.  It was also the slower firing soft gun and not the faster firing one that got me if that helps. and I got the award right afterwards.  If it isn't a bug perhaps I was so close to the B17s that I took splash dmg?

  How did you lose the 262 later in the sortie? Is it possible you hit a friendly?  :headscratch:
I always wanted to fight an impossible battle against incredible odds.

killshoot means shoot a friendly and take the damage yourself... It's probably counting ack as "your" damage -- which is why it's not working.

I got shot down by a P51 that I didnt see :uhoh  That had nothing really to do with the achievement though as I received it long before I was shot down.
