Yesterday I encountered some B17s at about 10k and after gaining some alt on them proceeded to make repeated high side attacks. After about 4 attacks the buffs disappeared. Discos happen I guess. A little while later I got a message saying I shot down WAGS26. I didn't know you can get a kill credit for a disco. I should have hit all the bombers at least once I suppose. I decided to look up WAGS26 and out of 60 bomber sorties, there are 36 discos. It's hard to blame an Internet connection on that when out of 35 veh/boat sorties there is only 1 disco. I nominate WAGS26 as the disco king, but I imagine there are even bigger ones.

interesting.

.....or it could have been when the server loaded up and then went Ka-blew-ey. TxMom shot me into next month with her Osti but it took about 5 minutes for my plane to take damage and blow up.
At 36 discos, he truly is the Disco-King!
:aok

Alt-F4, as well as ending task in taskmanager, results in "death" not disco.

Looking back a few months, this guy has a staggering number of discos. Dude's got some serious issues.

This leads me to a question. does "Pulling the cable" on your router result in a 'disco'? Or a 'death'?

I've had issues with alot of discos myself in the last month or so, 8 or 10 max. And this is on a basic dell with the usual upgrades and high speed cable connection.

Well I'm not sure whats up but Thursday night, I had 5 discos in a row. Then last night I upped a C Hog because I hardly ever fly them got a few kills and then what do you know. Host has switched to UDP...then Disco.
So could it be he just wasn't in a boat at the times his connection decided to go out? I do GV's a lot but I don't have a single disco in a GV they were all in aircraft. If they all showed in my stats I'd have about 9 discos in an aircraft and 0 in Gv's this month.
As a side note only about half of mine show up in my stats but I've had about 8 or 9 discos this month. I assume it's because I don't always get the "switch to UDP" sometimes I just lose connection without any warning.

I cant pass that offer up!
I havent played in the last week, been too busy :(

This has to be something to do with the server. I have never got as many discoes as i have lately, as soon as i see lost udp i close down rather than wait for everything to disappear everyone seems to be getting loadsa disco judging by complaints.

No, it does not. I did test it in AvA.
Driving a Jeep, alt-f4 resulted in a system message "you have crashed" before game shut down. Score showed "Death"
Taking up a formation Ju-88's. Alt-F4. Score showed one death (not three, as I would have expected)
Taking up Ju-88's again, now I did shut down program in Windows Task Manager. Result: One more "Death"

I doubt it. HTC has stated many times that a disconnect from the network for even part of a second will result in a complete disconnect and the need for a relog.
For a plane to warp from in front of you to behind you would take a number of packets to come up missing ( all thos spacial computations). Packet lose and connection issues are different things. Warps happen, live with it.

If anyones the disco king i was when i had old ID if you read Score for Flyboy56 and WPsniper i had over 217 discos per Tour.

i don't believe for a min this game is hack-proof ,what is ? it is probably the least hacked and best policed i know of i will get mud thrown at me for saying it but
i guess i didn't word it right still first cup of coffee time ,,i just meant that it doesnt keep them from not giving up the kill ya it shows a death but didn't it also add a disco too
