What about it?

***LIGHTNING [NL]*** · February 2nd, 2005

Is it lag or gameplay issues?

you saying you cant code a 20mm to have a SMALL splash.

***Major Hartmann*** · February 2nd, 2005

Look at the current Typhoon on Breakthrough for example. It's deadly to tanks, just like it should be. Now imagine it firing little handgrenades. That means, pilots will go hunting single infantrymen. Realistic? Not exactly. Sometimes you have to sacrifice realism in order to archieve realism.

***MkH^*** · February 2nd, 2005

Well, you couldn't code them to do less splash damage? It wouldn't necessarily have to be completely realistic; they don't do realistic damage to tanks either.

Besides, the planes did strafe infantrymen too.

Yeah, groups of them, but theydidn't go out of their way to kill that poor guy running around alone.

if i just read that right, Hartmann just said that PLANES DO NOT STRAFE THE GROUND. put down the crackpipe now.

You did not

***AussieZaitsev*** · February 2nd, 2005

yes..and a pilot in FH will chose to strafe a group of infantry over a single man...unfortunatley FH doesnt have the numbers *max 32 in server* or mass teamwork to get groups running around...although occasiounally u do see it.
