Offline the planes will fly in circles until you blow them up.


just the way it works offline.

The drones are not "in flight". They are on an invisible rail.

Why fix offline? That would be a waste of time and resources. Keep working on the online stuff.
Offline isn't useless but you have to be imaginative to get a benefit out of it.
Following behind the drones at 300' and plinking them will only result in you using up your ammo.
Well, it will help shooting those people you find flying while afk.

lol, I make a special point of making all the offline drones catch fire and then switch bases really quick, constantly. Tis amusing to this idiot to see the flame trails streaking across half the map.

Incidentally, has anyone ever managed to get all 4, 24 engines aflame? most I ever managed was 3.

I don't think it's possible. I've tried it with MGs. You can hit the oil on all of them, but at some point you put enough BB pellets into an engine it just falls off.

It is possible to have 3 fires at the wing roots/fuselage, though. Then an additional 2 for the inboard engines.

I do believe I managed to get four fires on one bomber. Didn't get a snapshot but I had to warn bystanders who were completely amused they didn't realize they were about to hit the bomber.

What i am more concerned is why i can brake b24s wings in half and still fly around.
Also doable with many other planes in AH.

I can't do it nor have I seen anyone else do it when I snap half their wings off in a B24 or any other bomber.
