Title: Whine vs Game Conscern
Post by: Kev367th on March 05, 2005, 02:41:36 PM

OK guys where is the boundary?

E.g Remember the infamous hovering Nik from AH1, everyone who mentioned it was accussed of whining, yet it turned out to a bug/flaw in the FM and was fixed.

How about this (on film by Rod367th).
Me (Spit14), Him (Tempest) - Follow a Ki-84 down from 20k, Ki-84 max speed in dive on the film is 603mph!!!!! Yet he pulls out just above ground level and goes into a hard turn. Both him and I had to shallow out dive due to severe compression yet the Ki-84 goes on diving.

Or the well known fact you can kill GVs from over 5000yrds yet rounds bounce off M3 at less than 600yrds.

Might be ki-84 special edition or film viewer is still buggy.

I could never dive ki-84 faster than 520mph without parts falling off, which is modelled pretty accurately. When tested in RL, ki-84 could dive to about 500mph (496 IIRC) without ill effects.

Also, it's a game. There's a lot of things you can do in game but not in RL. Very frustrating I know, but you just gotta roll with it.

genuflect was commonly used to verbally portray a position of humble pleading, bowing down before, or a state of prayer ..ie we genuflect at the feet of the Lord etc.

It's all about Angles when fighting in GV's in this Game.
