I have an issue, yesterday, i cannot bomb out a light pillbox with 2x1000 lbs, and it was also difficult to fire at plane, even at 200m distance...

I never have this problem before, what can be? Ping very good i think 42 ms, and fps stable at 60 with v-sync...

i explain better, i fire a targhet in air and i see a lot of ricochet, but with 4x20mm in a spitfire???

I do not know, never happen to me this, but yesterday a very hard day to battle.

Can maybe be the server update made this issue?

 

Thx for reading.

Most had that issue, 20mm's were just sparkling and it took a lot more to do damage to planes, but .50 cal's on US bombers were VERY effective, only took a single hit to take out a fighter. I tried shooting light pillboxes with my P38 L with default ammo, I know I've destroyed them before with that, but not last night, I then tried bombing them with 500 pound bombs and I know I hit the same one 3 times, but nothing. I did notice that 20mm AP ammo was more effective than HEI on planes, tho.

 

There were a lot of players complaining about 20mm "sparkling" hitting but not doing any damage. I had one incident where I attacked a B17 from the front, was using Universal ammo on my Seafire and I could see my rounds hitting the cockpit and continuing backward over the fuselage to the tail, I didn't do any damage until I hit the tail, there I got a crit, he hit me in the tail once and crited my rudder.

 

I really wish you would fix the exhagurated weapon damage and fire mechanics of the game. It's rather tiresome that so little is needed to take down a plane, it also makes the game rather boring. All it really takes is to hit once with either .50 cal or 20mm and you'll rip wing/tail, or you set a plane ablaze. And those fires defies the laws of physics too. Last night a AAA hit the left engine on my B25 and it caught fire, I wasn't hit more than that, but the fire jumped from the left engine to the fuel tank on the outside of the right engine, that fuel fire lasted only a couple of seconds, but still... Fire doesn't behave like that on a flying plane, airresistance forces the fire backward, it takes a lot more time for the fire to spread anywhere than how fast it spread in WT.

In good or bad sense and with which resolution?

Same here, but I had 20-30% PL,but my connection was working good, it seems like it was a server problem.
