Im just wondering if anyone else seems to get this aswell.

I know sometimes when you hit a tank with your tank cannon, it can do no damage, wether this is intended (deflection) or some sort of bug or lost hit reg Im not sure. This I am not too concerned about as it happens pretty rarely and can add to teh realism I think.

However, when I hit moving airbourne jets with my tank cannon round, it almost never does any damage.

Now please dont think I am over exaggerating when I say that litterally 9/10 shots on planes DO NOT do any damage what so ever. Its really quite annoying, especially seen as its not that easy to hit a movign jet in the first place.

I haev a good ping and connection to teh servers I play on, and really high FPS, this would make me think its not due to bad hit reg, but again Im not sure.

Ideas anyone?

this is just crappy hit detection. the same applies to almost every moving vehicle, and seems to be the worst with tank rounds and anti tank missiles. I find that aiming a little ahead of what would normally hit a moving jet will usually register better than actually hitting them.

I find it the most fun when my anti tank round goes straight through the dpv/fav that then proceeds to run me over. fantastic.

Some small spots on armor take no damage when you hit them. So no, not just you.

You could be right, except I definatly see the round impact the jet.

Some time ago someone posted links to images where you could see which parts of a tank or any other vehicle will take most damage. There were also some parts which would give it 0% damage for example the mounted MG and many other parts if I remember correctly.

It s the same with any other vehicle.
But probably thats just one part of why some hits don t count.
The whole hit detection in BF2 seems to be messed up. Especially when you fire at someone with your assault rifle I often see smoke but they dont seem to be wounded.
Everyone complained about the hitboxes in cs or css but bf2 is much worse.

Its the crappy hit detection. Its probably the worst in heli combat. 50% of the missiles i shoot and hit the enemy chopper dont do a crap to it. Just explodes and doesnt do anything else.

Sometimes the thing actually helps...once i flew straight into a hotel at full speed and took no damage...Ea is teh roxorz!
