I've seen much worse, felt no need to complain about it except for a friendly 'please relog'.

OTOH, your gunnery could use some improvement.  
:lol

To be honest i dont see any strange stuff in this film.

The first warp happens as you close to about d1.5... his (im guessing) low end machine has to process details.
Second warp happens as you hit him the first time - hit sounds, damage processing, displaying smoke and the very close up of your plane.

Saw 4 or 5 requests for him to relog on the CH200 buffer.

Lastnite I was chasing a P47N over FT and put several nice shots into his 6, he barrel rolled out and dived to the deck. Put a few more rounds from my Dora into his wing and he warped like crazy. He Split S, went for the trees and "poof" disappeared. No "You shot down" Nada.......

Has anyone else had this happen before?

Just wondering.

Yep, seen that before.

Chalked it up to severe net lag and internet weirdness.

Yes minnow, I have also had that happen. I just suppose it's someone losing UDP, packets trying to catch up, subspace field harmonics, etc.


What's on the second film? This first film isn't exactly alarming.

Have had that happen to me, but if you watch the text (and sometimes it can take up to a couple of mins) you will get the kill. most people don't see it right away so they stop looking for it and then it often will pop in and pass before the person even sees the message.

Not everyone has 200 open.  I almost never do.

CH 200 is like an AOL chat room, some people arn't into self flagellation. A polite private message is the best way communicate to another chess piece in AH.

Check this guy out.  3-4 of us all saw the same thing.  Surprised to see him disappear and then reappear behind us :)

That's nothing compared to FORTRESS. He could make his set of bombers fly at -5000 feet on the film viewer -- oddly only AFTER he was attacked.

:P

Got him on film one time attacking him with a teammate. I lit him up set one drone on fire and he disappears... AND I start taking damage from him WHILE he's disappeared! He came back and re-disappeared several times, but I never got a kill for flaming his drone.

Strange things were afoot at the seven eleven that night.

I just see a horde vs 1.


















;)

ps: What kind of bomber are you flying in that film, Corky?

Post by: Guppy35 on July 28, 2006, 12:52:50 PM
Not to worry about that horde, cause his horde came in and repaid in kind :)

The bomber I'm flying is the well known B-38G "tailloser" best known for it's desire to only use one engine while leaving smoke trails from the other.  It also features a cockpit often found painted in red streaks.

I think you mean "the Circle K"

I always get those two mixed up. I've lived so many different places, some only have seven elevens, some only have circle Ks, to my mind they're always "qwik-e-marts" :P

I love that commercial where the guy's talking on his cellphone with a small hands free headset, and he walks into a convenience store. You cant even see the headset unless you look for it.

He keeps going with the conversation, which is about a friend's home improvement project that was botched by the contractor.

Right as he gets to the checkout, oblivious to what he's actually saying, he almost shouts to his friend  "You're being robbed, man! You're being robbed!".....


So the guy behind the counter hauls out a club and starts pounding the cell phone guy into the floor.


I have no idea what they were selling, but it was a hilarious commercial!

Yes, true, but I wouldn't know if they privated him, would I? Just saying that requests were made in some form.
