vonOben 55 Posted October 6, 2010 Hi Sometimes when I land damaged or out of ammo on an airfield I switch to target to player view and watch the enemy AI. Once in BHaH I noticed that the AI Nieuport flew around the airfield quite low in something like 10 minutes, the AA fired fiercely but never seemed to hit. This surprised me because if I had flown over an airfield at the same altitude I would for sure been shot down by the AA. In my latest HiTR mission I did the same. Two enemies in Nieuport 24’s chased one of my flight members in an Albatros DV. The enemy planes flew quite low over the airfield and the AA fired the whole time at them. Both enemies where eventually hit and crashed to the ground and my flight member survived thanks to the AA. Any other opinions or observations regarding this?

Olham 164 Posted October 6, 2010 I often use this, when I'm out of ammo. You can fly to the next - army camp - spotter - airfield - railyard of your side, and their machine guns will fire at the enemy. They don't hit them very often, but Nupes or Sopwith break easily. SPADs or S.E.5a - that is more difficult. But sometimes they regard the firing ground position as their new enemy, and you can secretly fly away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you noticed any difference between AA against human piloted aircraft and AA against AI piloted aircraft? Cheers vonOben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted October 8, 2010 No, they hit me very rarely too. Check your settings for ground fire in "Workshop" - perhaps it's on "easy" or such? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
