Two battlezone bugs...

[VDZ]

The stuff doesn't stack. Not stacking + inventory limit = annoying.


I have the thing right in my inventory. I crashed one before this, but now I can't use the other.

To add to this: burning death effect remains frequently when u get killed and respawn as the druid (speaking of which, is it part of the plan to make people respawn as the druid where they got shot? Sometimes you do, sometimes you just spawn back at base).

Also - possibly related to VDZ's issue - we had player last night who couldn't switch out of a vehicle because he didn't own it.

2 more bugs and yet another 'You don't own this' bug this time.

1. Double killing. People are getting killed twice, and the killers get the reward twice. What the hell?
2. Cannot change vehicle when flying with v1. I got shot in my v5, then tried to switch to v2 to kill people but it said 'can't change vehicle while flying'. In vehicle 1.

Also, bomber SUCKS at turning. Can't we have something better to destroy buildings?

[Fooli]

1. Same as I said, VDZ. You don't get the reward/kill twice, that I've seen: you just respawn where you were (usually on fire) and the other guy shoots ya before you can move away or grenade him back

2. Yup, agreed: if you're killed while flying you can't switch vehicles subsequently (until you're killed again, I think) cos it says you're still flying. Same if you *setvehicle btw. Not always, just... often.

(3. That's not a bug - you're just rubbish in planes :p)

Have you ever used the bomber? Trust me, I cannot turn with it.

[theseer]

if its too hard to turn land, then accelerate but don't fly towards enemy building then when u see it turn on the ground then rise and bomb it.

[VDZ]

...then crash, and drive all the way back to the enemy town, do it two more times and congratulations, I have one point.

[theseer]

crash... landing is easy arse

[Malkiah]

Well im no noobie to battle zone, i have landed every vehicle, it requires skill to preform, ill explain, deaccelerate down to maybe little under the line, this will cause you to drift, keep this going until you have a nice very very slow drift, make sure your drifting forward and not downward, downward will cause you to crash, then as you hit the ground, slam on the brakes, get out, and unleashe the wrath of hell.

HINT:
You must be totally aligned with the ground, your nose must be slighty up to perform this landing.

These tips here only apply to the bomber and biblane, as with the helicoptor, that is different you want to drift downward slowly instead of drifting forward.

Thnx-Malkiah

[VDZ]

Eh, I think I know how this is done, seeing as I've played for a loooong time now.
It's just that if they're defending the town I don't have enough time to land, I have to blow the stuff up quickly.

lol chaz, i wish plane landing could actually be that realistic and detailed

thier is no real landing rules besides that you have to have vsi between -15 and 0 or in the positives. it doesen't matter how fast your going or how your nose is. don't really need skill to point down and adjust your plane direction and/or throttle so your going down at only -10 or so
i've landed planes pointing down at a 45 degree angle going 180mph on zoric, vsi still between -15 and 0, so the landing is successful. different island, but its still the same game, and the same landing rules apply on any island as they can't be changed.

[Mit]

roll is taken into account (and pitch is on the next client (as well as there being a server option to make landing easier or harder) )

[VDZ]

Buildings are constantly hit by your own rockets that do not harm it.
Buildings should stop getting hit by things that do not harm them.
I was bombed today, and I could do nothing but watch and try to shoot up, but the rockets were absorbed by the buildings.
