Tons of game glitches since my return
« on: Today at 07:48:38 AM »
Good Morning,

I went to attach the AHFilm, but I do not remember how to convert them to upload to youtube. The files saved as they were will not upload, but if someone gives me feedback and a way to do that, I'll attach links after. I returned after leaving in 2013 only to be surprised by how little this game has improved, and it seems to be worse now. I've had multiple instances on most maps with explosions causing drumming sounds throughout(which others can hear as well) when battleship salvos or bombs go off nearby when in a GV. The battleship guns disco after being in for 20 minutes shelling towns. After trying to adjust in everyway views on the ground Ive found that trees I CAN see close up disappear to others further away exposing me. Before when I left it was like that in both fields of view if the settings where set correctly. Guns hitting planes from bombers guns but not registering on their end. I verified this with Scothand that he heard all the pings yet NO damage.

Again, I have a few recordings showing these issues within the game, and many others experience the same thing. It seems as though they have given up on this game and enjoy the 15$s while not much has improved. Its gotten WORSE actually...Are they just riding this out until everyone leaves? Why?


I sent support a video 3 weeks ago thought it was an aimbot issue, but nope its something else because we both had the same issues. I'm not surprised by the amount of people who leave AH3 now that I've been back and seen almost no support other than a handful like Fugitive. This is one great way to destroy and shut down a game I guess..

Maybe its time to sell it to developers who want to see games like this continue

You can post your raw AHFV film file here. Just use the attachment option. They would usually be more helpful than a YT vid.

A few issues to look at.
But sounds like difference in detail distance.

Also, if you have been sitting still firing your gun its not hard to know where to fire at you.

Never heard drumming sounds.

Before we jump to conclusions lets look at the films.

2016 it got a major update. Its not really the same in some areas. FMOD was also added, a superior sound mixing of new sounds.

The clouds are also not flat graphics. The last decent size update was 2019 or 20. HT is still fixing and tweaking things. Its a very solid game.

As far as tech support, the office shut down, its just HT. The last 2 years he’s been dealing with family and health issues that require his attention. He can still be reached on the phone. But try this first. Between the 4-5 here who help with tech support is not much different. There’s not much we can’t handle.

As Animl said, you can attach the ah film here, open a reply window and under the box where you type your message click on the "Attachments and other options" then "choose file". Browse your computer for the AH film and click it then ok and it will attach it to the post.

As for the issues, I have heard of a few players who seem to have a problem with the gun sounds, but a very few which leads me to believe that it is more than likely a conflict on their computers. Un installing and re installing the sound drivers may help.

The tree issue, are you looking at your vehicle by jumping into another vehicle in the film viewer? If so that is your problem. While you can get a general idea of what the other guy saw in the fight, you lose a lot of detail because your computer cant capture what his computer is doing, only the packet info that is transmitted through the server and that "detail" isnt transmitted to keep the packets small and quick.

Id like to look at the film/films as well. While HTC hasnt been advancing the game (due to family and health issues) he does seem to be coming back into it a bit now. oh and by the way, thanks for the  :aok there are a few of us that just wont quit on this game!  <S>

Good point

The AHFV uses your settings, just as in the game, not the other players settings. So what ever you have your sounds or graphics set at in game is how they are set in FV. The FV is actually part of the game, it's not really a separate app. No matter who runs the film it runs off settings from who ever the viewer is.

This fact can throw a lot of things off when looking for things like this. It can present false positives.

Try a fighter as the game plays without any of the issues you described for me..
