Has anyone else been having problems being shot down after someone passes you from a head on to hear their bullits rip your plane apart after the guy is now 1.2 behind you??? Lagg maybe but I'd rather have a better explaination...

I don't want to mention names (yet) but being on the reciving end is is starting to really tick me off..... I've had this happen way too frequentlly and I find it getting rather annoying.

I know for one its not my box, or connection.. it only happens with certain a plane (ME 109) and maybe a cetain pilot I'm having a problem with.

Welcome to the wonderful world of lag (WWL (tm))

Happens to me when the arena is warpy.

Best solution? Avoid HOs!

Heh....quit looking for something that aint there.

Its lag plain and simple. There is probably a great deal of difference between yours and his connect speeds and because of the way the game registers hits, it can cause you to get hit when he is either past you or when it may appear that his nose isnt even pointed at you.

It may seem like something else is going on, but I would bet almost everything it is just lag.

There's always two sides to the lag issue.. yours and your opponents.

happens to me all the time. I just assume it is my fault and remind myself to break earlier

What could this possibly have to do with the FM?

(snicker)

When I pass someone on a HO, as I fly by I plant some C4 and a remote denotator.

Then when I'm safely out of guns range, about 1.2k, I press the button and KA-BOOM!

works every time!
I guess others have figured out this little trick of mine.
