Ok I was just playing minhelm =FC= and he flew the new Mustang and I flew the 109G6. I shot off his wing and damaged his engine but he didn't register any damage
Whats the story? I was well chuffed to blast off his wing but to see him flying wingless and propellerless and still evading me well is a bit of a let down.

I have screens of his a/c without a wing and still flying but I have nowhere to upload them to.

Well snake, this is not a pp6 issue ! The "online damage bug" hit you ! Sometimes, when you fly online this is possible, the packet that "holds" the damage that ypu have done to your opponent get lost in outter space... You see him fly wingless, but the damage has not arrived to his PC, so his plane is still intact ! I dont know if I explain this well, so you can understand !

This happened to me a lot ! I remember once fighting someone online ( cant recall who that was) who was very hard to kill... After many minutes I managed to get on his six and blow his right wing skyhigh ! My first reaction was :"Yeah..." The second was :"Huh ???" cause I saw him flying without a wing making him even harder target to kill ! So in case this happens again, sit back on your airchair and enjoy it !
You have been bugged !

Snake,

Was the entire wing blow off or just a part of the outer wing area? There are many planes in sdoe which can still fly with part of an outer wing missing.

Condor out

Things like this will happen, particularly in the larger games or games that hold more than their fair share of lag. When/if it happens, don't get upset, that's not going to help anyone. Rather, put some more lead in him.

On the other hand I don't recall ever seeing a completely destroyed aircraft continue to fly during an online game...

Yeah it happened a couple of days ago when tailslide got his tail blown off, and was still whoopin everyone's butt. He was missing the back half of the plane I knew it was damage bug but oooooo well.

Hey I'm not upset I'm just frustrated. It wsa my first time shooting a Mustangs wing off.
Condor, it was the whole wing plus engine. The propeller was not there. BTW your damage model is cool.

I have pics if you want them.
