"Hercules" achievement broken :(

So I watched one of my co workers get the "Hercules" achievement twice the last few days but because there is no longer 20 tiers he is not getting the title that comes with it

Was thinking of writing a ticket for him but not sure if the Devs would really care...

 

So many things have been broken with 1.37, I get the feeling the devs are overwhelmed with all the complaints and bug reports atm.

 

other than matchmaking, which is still gathering data and has become a lot better over the past few days, what else is broken?

 

Last night Goderick and I ran into a lot of wonkiness.
He crit a Shooting Star 3x and it flew away like a champ. No fire, nothing. I hit it once, non-crit and it burns up and explodes.

I crit a FW-190 (no fire) Goderick finished it off 10 seconds after my crit.... I get the kill, he didn't even get the assist.

Pumping shot after shot into Yaks, Laggs, BF's, and FW's and watching only sparks fly off the planes, no hit markers.

We would take 1, and only 1 shot and we would lose whole wings, or tails.

Godericks engine going black without taking a single hit to his plane.

Planes with no energy built up, chasing and outclimbing me even when I just pulled out of a dive where Im traveling over 450 mph...

The list goes on....

 

Crit on Fw190, usually a fuel tank and their DM for AB must be better than it is in HB or FRB.

Engine going black - depends on a plane. Overheated, oil leaked, it happens. (trying my best here lol)

Kills not registering - that's a big fucking deal. It pisses me off, drives me nuts to the point where I want to punch my monitor. This needs to be fixed and everyone was hoping that it would, but it never did. My premium Zero was critted twice TWICE!, and I was able to force an overshoot, kill the guy and land a plane safely with very little damage to my controls. DMs have changed, some for better and some for worse. What I do now is aim for the wings. Fuck their cooling system and fuel tanks, I want to kill them, not crit them I kill other Zeroes no problem. They complain about it too.

Hits not registering - connection, packet loss, latency, cant help it there. I feel your pain.

Critting a jet 3 times with no kill? I find that very very very hard to believe. There must of been something fishy going on if that's the case. Critting any plane 3 times, even a B17 will get you a kill. Critting a jet once is a guaranteed kill, you don't even have to crit them. They're made out of paper with lots of fuel in their wings. I don't see how its even possible to be honest.

 

Ya the jet thing was strange, then I loop in with my Corsair and 1 shot him......

The no hit register though, you can actually see the sparks where the munitions hit, they just don't do damage.... really odd.

The engine going black I dunno, he had just pulled the plane, plus its arcade so engines don't over heat like Historical/Full real.

 

Knocked out a pilot earlier got the assist while I watched his dead plane fall. The game said he "crashed"

Also my plane went black about 15 seconds after the initial spawn and took no fire, just fell like a rock as if I got hit by a fly swatter

 

Which plane were you in?



Ajax, if you're flying a Corsair with 20mm x 4, you can kill anything you look at. The bulletspread on that thing is out of control. Try watching tracers, they're all over the place which makes it perfect for arcade. You don't even have to aim much lol just fire at that direction.
After flying that, try flying a premium Mustang and compare the difference when firing cannons. I dunno what they were thinking lol

 

I've been flying British biplanes but literally right after the first spawn in the game, getting full black indicators is a sack of shit

 

ouch, this doesn't sound right. Not MLG ready I suppose.
