Why is it that when I am in a German Plane it is like I am getting hit by ground fire even over my own base, but when I am in an Allied Plane I do not have that same situation. Thank You Ketinkrad

You have horrible luck then, the only time I have taken fire in any plane was when flying to close to an incoming enemy taking fire from base ack.
Every now and then I have taken fire when taking off as the ack is firing.
All are extremely rare, perhaps 1 in 250 sorties....

Because HiTech does not like Luftwaffe planes. Ask Voss or Thorsim, they can enlighten you in the ways of the Luftwhiner.

I've had my engine shot out and been P/W'ed by friendly puffy ack in an F4U-4, so yeah, it DOES happen.

Its true :D I mean hes got a hog on the front page, and its a known fact that 38 pilots can say whatever they want on the bbs :devil :bolt:

It doesn't actually have anything to do with what plane your flying. The only countries the game cares about are Bishop, Knight, and Rook. A couple things could have happened to cause the ack to hit you;
1: The base was captured - when a base is captured all the ack immediately respawns and begins firing. Any of the base's former owners who are near the field will probably be hit.
2: Bad luck - as others in the thread of mentioned friendly ack will not target you, but it WILL damage you if it does hit you while attempting to shoot down an enemy plane that is within range. I've been caught by ack a few times while taking off at the same time an enemy aircraft is buzzing the field.

A small sample doesn't accurately represent the average. :old:

Anyone ever saw Schlowy4's late night luftwhiner rants? He was out of control on it last night. Think he actually got muted. Lol

Next time you see him ask him about the conspiracy among all the ace pilots to keep the trim tab hax a secret from all you little people. Epic lulz will ensue.
