Today was fun firing through a CV ranged while I watched guns I just destroyed pop back up. Very strong CV bish, and this game is dying because of ZERO moderation for low life cheaters as well as no improvements with issues just excuses. This game has gotten worse, and what a waste of money returning! When will they moderate the cheating going on? The answer is never. Indestructible Bases and base objects very nice!

Very convenient the recording of these situations happening create the AHFILM to crash when loading the recording..The only films that I cannot open and link are when players have been openly and clearly cheating. Weird..

No one is respawning ship guns instantly; you'll need some video for that claim.  The only indestructible base object that would be worth destroying are the Vehicle Bases with only 2 guns, those were introduced awhile back and aren't very common, and not typically in range of ships anyway.  Those bases dont have any support buildings or radar.

They are when I see zoomed in 7.5k away from the ship of the guns down and not firing, followed by them firing 5 minutes ish later I know what I saw. Videos are corrupt everytime things like this are happening, when trying to load the recording it crashes AHFILM everytime. I load other videos from sorties and its just fine.

When the new guy comes in and claims cheating you atleast need some video, pretty strange it would only be happening against you and no one else. 
When zoomed in at long range the shots can look like they are coming from a down gun, you're lucky if it looks like they are even coming from the right ship. You also said 5 minutes later...the guns are only down for 15 minutes.   Just because they were down when you saw them earlier doesnt mean they werent 5 minutes from respawning.

New guy? I started this game in 2008 and left back in 13/14. Like I said, I cannot open the corrupt film for this instance. And a few others crash the AH film as well..but I’m a new guy just trying to stir up stuff I guess. I watched the guns go down and then fire again way before 15 minutes. Hitting the CV over and over again.

Yes, if you haven't played in over 10 years you are the new guy.  The only one having these problems, but as I said the guns dont appear to come from the proper location on ships, it could look like a down gun is the one shooting when it could even be coming from a different ship, that's how far off they can be.

The reason you cant see whish gun is firing as haggerty says is because of lag. The ship is moving and what you see isnt what the other guy sees because its off by milliseconds. If you film another player taking off from a CV odds are very good that he will not take off from the ship, but off to one side or another floating above the water. Again, it is due to lag.

So while you thought a guy was firing from an aft gun, he could very well have been firing from a forward gun that wasnt damaged.

As for the sound issue it could very well be a conflict on your computer. I have heard of a couple of players having that issue, but only a couple through the years. If it was a game issue almost all 500 players would be having issues. Uninstalling your sound drivers and reinstalling them will change the address and maybe clear the conflict.

Yes the game is old, yes it has not had any major updates in some time, how ever it is well maintained and still is the top WWII combat game out there. The other games have bits and pieces of Aces High, but Aces High is the only one that has it all.

No, thats not how that works, but k, and I am not the only one having these issues.. So basically the answers I've gotten is "thats just how this game works" in a nut shell. Got it!

The sound issue isn't everytime and depends on how many users are nearby as well as "time of day" in game. Old is fine, but keeping up with an old game is necessary imo and not happening at an optimal level. I'm making these topics for help and also seeing if anyone else that reports these issues while I'm playing finally speak up so this game can keep getting better, not worse. I'll post my PC's specs again, but I believe you Fugitive personally read that data once already I may be mistaken, but it didn't have any indicators that it was my PC. I also have re downloaded the game 3 times to try and fix it. Discoing when changing bomber positions in guns finally stopped but the other items did not.

There are a number of players that have stepped in to trouble shoot and fix some of the issues in the game. We also have several players building new maps, another group setting up help pages for the game as well as PC/GPU issues. . . .

We have seen some very innovative maps.  That is for sure.  Map makers.  :aok  Y'all must put in a ton of hours on the new maps.

Im pretty sure you did post it before. I can only read the basics in that thing, I was hoping back then someone else better with them could read more. How is your connection? If you get discoed from the guns but it has stopped, maybe its just a crappy connection. I remember Skuzzy saying something about priorities in packet transfer and the sound packets getting dropped causing issues? Dont know, dont have time to do the searches right now.

You could call Hitech and he may be able to help you over the phone. Nobody knows the way it works better than him.

Connection is hardwired fiber optics and works great. It would happen after long climbs to high alts all of a sudden changing guns would crash it and when I opened the game relaunch me in the sky. Hasn’t happened since I re installed the game though thankfully
