Every have a night like this?

[doc1kelley]

Now when I get offline , check my pingplotter I'm not seeing anything unusual (10-20%) loss.  Used to be 30-40% on two hops, and I would have landed that sorte 4 kill 95 times out of 100 for sure then. 
In game I showed not netstatus lag issues or spike (other then when I spawn)

I replayed the video and it was like I was shooting at thin air.  You could see the bullets hitting all the trees around this guy above and below him, but no sparks.  Guy must have been laughing at this.

The only time I saw one spark is when a tracer round hit.  Seems like only the tracers count, then they show and animation of multiple round hitting.  Odd math.

Anyway, had to gripe.  Very frustrating night.  Hope some of you have been there too. 

Well you've answered your own question about these strange happenings.  The packet loss will cause all them problems and it doesn't matter if it's 10% or 70%, loosing packets means your view of the battlefield or battleairspace is not what is currently happening because your front end is not being updated to current time because of the loss of packets carrying the required data to update your front end.  I might not be technically correct but I think I'm real close.  You should direct this in the tech support forum and ask the tech Guru Skuzzy for a more detailed explanation of the cause and effect of your packet loss.  Be prepared to include an updated snapshot of your pingplotter results with your inquiry.

All the Best...

lol you must of been real mad to write an essay about it.

[Cajunn]

I think its a conspiracy.

My night: AAR
 Sortie one: up at 85 double spawn battle, am immediately killed by MD68 camping from behind spawn.

 Sortie two: up at 85 double spawn battle, am immediately killed by MadCap71 camping from behind spawn.

 Sortie three: Up a hvy Jug from a base 1.5 sectors away from spawn battle, arrive over battle, bomb MD68 and Madcap71 along with a third camper. As I rtb, I get pm'd by both, md68's pm was a short "one liner" text about how I suck. Madcap's however was an epic, 2 min long "Drdeath style" vox rant. I was laughing so hard I realized I wasn't recording it until 1/2 way through, I quickly stumbled over the keyboard for the ALT R. The pm conversation ranged from How I suck as a person, to how my squad sucks, to how I had no "right" to bomb him, to finally at the end, a self promotion of his squad and why its better then mine. Throughout this incoherent rant were various comments about his score and conspiracy theories.

After that I went to the DA and had an absolute blast fighting Sunsfan(<S>). Most fun ive had in weeks!

LOL I got madcap71 back for you Stod he was buzzing a V base the other night and dropped a bomb on my M3, so I up a wirb and before I got set up the bomb was falling so I tower. Well i up and he drops on the hanger and gets me again. So ok,  I get the PM from him about how I was a tard for towering and on and on and on I told him to stop whining he got 2 kills and he goes on with the insults, and I have enough and tell him, I'm not a retard I'm actually a Firefighter and I spend most my days and nights saving retards like you (which I say out of frustration). And then There is a long pause and then I get "volunteer or Paid" like it matters, I send back Paid 10 year Captain and I do this for stress relief but its not working tonight (i'm a little pissed, I'm not use to being disrespected). Well his attitude changes and I guess he realizes that there's a real person on the other end, and now I get salute's from him. But it goes to show you just never know who your calling names so I think that before you send something you might regret you should stop and think about it.  Everyone!

Nice!

[Delirium]

When I try and log in now, I'm so damn tired and rusty that I flounder in my 38 and can't turn fight B17s.

I feel your pain!

[Shuffler]

Turn?? What is that?

I have trouble finding a base that the runway lines up with a con base.

[MD68]

That's funny...I killed them both the other night while their squad was trying to horde a v base. It was me v 5 or 6 of them. Nonetheless I killed md68 and the goon (can't remember who it was) and the rest took off running. That same sortie I got md68 again aswell as madcap. md68 was upset and was PMing me. Madcap also PMed me but complimented me on my flying and left it at that. The V-base was saved and the night rolled on.

That's funny b4buster doesn't tell everbody that he pm'ed me first. And you know you did,it's people like you who just tell half the story to make yourself look good that ruin the game.
