Hitboxes in 1.5. Better or the same?

[=98=]

Simple poll, but note I do not state they are fixed, merely improved from 1.41.

So, compared to 1.41, are the hitboxes in 1.5 better (easier to hit), the same, worse (harder to hit)?

Be sure to leave your thoughts and poll results are public.

In the air you can really notice it (with the jet cannon and the tv missile), but in infantry its same old story for me (decent but still get random lol head made from sand).

I would say its improved. I was using the PKM the other day and it was amazing like the old 1.2 patch.

Much better. Jeep/tank machine guns are much more reliable on the move and the AA vehicle guns actually damage aircraft now :P

I put the same. I am yet to really fly much since the patch so I cant comment on the Air. Ground does seem pretty much the same to me apart from an odd kill here and there that I would normally not expect to get.

Holy sh!t! Its PlaneWhores old video from the golden TBF2 days! I wonder where that guy is.

But yeah, my take- jets cannons are awesome, jets missiles are a tad more reliable but still inbalanced and TV missiles are almost spot on (no more aiming for phantom hitboxes).

On the ground, I see no difference. People still resort to nadespam because guns are awful and I hate the random deviation set to the grenade launchers. Same old, same old.

Re: Hitboxes in 1.5. Better or the same?

the plane cannons work waaaaay better in all jets

I do notice better reg with infantry guns as well but it doesn't seem as different as the other areas

I voted the same cause the hitboxes are the same.. The hit registration is what changed.. lol

You know what I meant

Quit being pedantic :p

Re: Hitboxes in 1.5. Better or the same?

I put worse because Ive spent hundreds of hours perfecting my ground pounding skills and since the new patch, shots that would normally hit now misses. I have to readjust all over again. Its a pain.

PS...The prone dive and fire still works. I've witnessed it too many times lately for it to be a coincidence. I even tried it out myself and got positive results. The hitboxes in BF2 are so jacked up, it makes prone diving still an effective option. Simply prone dive to throw off your hitbox and spray until the deviation settles down.

Hit registration is much better from what I've noticed.

Wait, I though he was you?!

Wait I'm confused.. Are you saying you are colony? or you are saying planewhore is colony?

The ****.

Colony =/= planewhore.

Side note I haven't talked to either of them for like 2 years..

Last names I knew planewhore had was QQCUMBER and bungalow_biII .. or something like that. Then he disappeared.

Colony had colony2142 and a couple more like criimore etc

No, Im not.

About 2 years back there were a series of arguments regarding jets, choppers and air balance. Colony, PlaneWhore, me and a couple of other guys (I think Blades too) were all arguing this one guy in one topic or another. So at one point he just flipped out and said we were all PlaneWhores alternate accounts. It was pretty hilarious.

PW disappeared around the time when StrafeRight servers went down, which happened at a time when a lot of good servers went dead, along with a pretty significant chunk of BF2 players. Colony played a bit after that. Did either of them use xfire?
