Monostripezebra Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Yesterday on WoL, suddently all aircrew decided to have a simultanious heart attack and I swear it wasn´t because of my flying. Has anyone else yet experienced a spontanious demise of the crew online, with no visible causes or statistic impacts? The Server stats only show insta-death but not the usual atribution to what (AAA is normaly listed by type of gun or so) http://il2stat.aviaskins.com:8008/en/sortie/log/793562/?tour=12 in the air I could also see no AAA hit or other damage to the aircraft... just 3 spontaniously dying people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1IsZ_BcDf4 I suspect it may have been caused by AAA in combination with network issues, maybe? I don´t think all 3 of my aircrew had the fish?
Monostripezebra Posted July 5, 2016 Author Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Crew was hit by flak. It´s what I kind of suspect.. but all my other flak deaths would record in the statistics with an atribute cause like "damaged - 23.3% AI Flak 37 AAA gun" and visible plane damage and flak smoke puffs.. here there where no hit sounds or smoke or damage whatsoever neither while flying nor on the track if you look at the stats entry here, no ai is atribuited, just like the self-inflicted damage entries... I just found that interesting. Was a real "WTF?" moment kind of surprize while flying, too bad there was no virtual stow away flightsimmer hidden in the bombbay to live out his "what if" dream of having to land a plane with disabled crew ;=) Edited July 5, 2016 by Dr_Zeebra
wtornado Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Sometimes in game on overseas you lose a lot of the animation of plane hits explosions smoke sound and other goodies when playing online from North America on the Russian server. It just is. It was worse before mind you.
Original_Uwe Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Perhaps another cheater? If he was killed by flak the game would have recorded the event
Monostripezebra Posted July 6, 2016 Author Posted July 6, 2016 I don´t think so.. very unlikely. more like rouge AAA and network stuff. Perhaps another cheater?
mAIOR Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I think the Topic title sums the best. Too much sausage in their diet led to massive stroke of the coronary. Human biology simulation confirmed. Simulate that DCS :o)
Asgar Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Zeebra, you're such a dirty little cheater. killing off your crew just so you can throw them out and be lighter and better in a dog fight pff

wtornado Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Very strange . i don`t see any hits from flak . Hell I would get shot down on WoL and not see the plane hear hits of have damage I would fall from the sky on fire. Not strange at all when you are far from the server and the way the network coding is made. Edited July 7, 2016 by WTornado
seafireliv Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Very strange . i don`t see any hits from flak . There is a flak burst from close by if you look carefully. If the game is modelled realistically, a lot of killing shards could easily have made it`s way and hit each man in a fluke moment. I remember IL2 had a way you could see a diagram of just what happened when flak exploded and it was quite sobering to see the dozens of trajectories of deadly matter flying about.
wtornado Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Flak would detonate and give a cone shaped trajectory due the velocity of the shell and burst that is why hits to the aircraft would be coming from bursts very close to the aircraft or directly underneath it to have any affect. A shell could've burst underneath it we can't see.

Not strange at all when you are far from the server and the way the network coding is made. True but there are no hits or smoke or fire or holes , as you know in this game one hit gives off smoke a few hits and your leaking fuel ,holes ... ect ect , maybe the video is just after being hit .

Yes a fluke moment , i think the reason the video is posted is because of that ,agreed flak is deadly . But im not sure if its modelled here can some one confirm that , but ive seen lots on instant hits though ,

I made the vid a bit too short, as I did not consider it soo important, but there really was nothing else. It really just is the moment and circumstances, everyone aboard died.. and what I found interesting, is that the crew died "out of cycle" with the far-off aaa-puffs (all the guns fire more or less at once, meaning the puffs show up roughly together in time)

If I have a ping of 150 and the player shooting me down has a ping of 350 and the server average sum of all pings averages out to 250 gameplay is never good.and lagging ,lost packets and stutters are inevitable. If you have gamed enough on all games and servers that one person with the high ping will leave the game or better yet the server is programmed to boot him/her and the game returns to normal.
