You are finding people on bad sport lobbies? damn Are there any active jet crews still on ps3? I was in the 8492 briefly but there werent many active members. Let me know if you find any, i really want an active crew for freeroam, you should add me and we should fly together or something ^^ Edited October 1, 2015 by xTrendSs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooth Longsack Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) What exactly is "Line of Sight?"I dunno lol. The slogan used to be, "nobody gets out of our line of sight." It's like an allstar type team, one might say. Eta- invite inbound Etaa-... whenever this gets sorted: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status You should try it out. You'll find a lot of jet action if that's what you're searching for. Also, there are some great pilots in the crew that are down to 1v1 merge with you. We party up all the time and just do whatever. This crew was a game changer for me. Edited October 1, 2015 by Smooth Longsack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grindgrizzly1 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) I've never ever been in BS and I blow up a lot of people's cars sometimes, the one game i think it was like somewhere between 9 and 13 in about a hour or 2 I had my mic banned once for no reason, other than everybody must of thought I was the modder talking sh*t to them and killing them Edited October 1, 2015 by Grindgrizzly1 Affalterbach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seven50iL Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Guys if anyone could answer this question I would appreciate it. I am currently considering a Hydra but is it worth it if I can just use the Lazar instead? Which one is more agile in mid flight? Pros cons?

Foxy Stevenson Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I'm cranking out these crappy vids in about five minutes now. Is that how people snipe? Lol No offense but no wonder you don't see many good snipers. You are just straffing side to side till the crosshair is on the enemy and the worst thing was that you were shooting while it wasn't.

I just spawned there and that guy was aiming at me. I will always switch to fpv for prolonged sniper fights. I only missed one shot badly as i was anticipating him reversing his strafe. The clip is only in there because the guy got hit by the car and it made me lol. Lemme ask you something: do you even strafe bro?

Oh yes, I'm on ps3 by the way, so I don't have faster straffing with fpv. But my tactic is different, I don't just press x and that's it. " i was anticipating him reversing his strafe" Don't do that, or you will always depend on luck. Pro tip: Don't ever let your enemy decide when you can shoot him, drag scope the f*cker.

Smooth Longsack Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) I get it. Sniping is a different animal on cg though. That strafing technique, in a firefight like in the vid, is all that is out there because of that fpv accelerated strafe. That's just how those fights go. The strafe speed on fpv is dizzying. Yeah i could have dragged the scope a lil better/faster the but like i said, I'm usually in fpv for that type of engagement. The first shot looked like it could have been a hit. The second was a clear miss and the third shot killed him. That's not too bad. What sucks is the other guy who spawnded just to my left was already shooting me by the time i lowered the heavy. I'll try to get better Edited October 4, 2015 by Smooth Longsack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW647 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 quick question for the jet pilots amongst us , at what altitude does the homing launcher fail to get a lock or even track you ? an i mean altitude using the altimeter in 1st person/cockpit view. i usually orbit the city at high altitude, then dive for attacks and then zoom climb up back to safety, i think it'd be handy to know exactly how low i can safely go before the ground based launchers come in to play,it might save a few seconds in the dive or climb out?

Smooth Longsack Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 It's around 500 ft. You'd have to use Pythagoras to figure out the actual distance from the hl though as the ground pounders cant aim straight up. I'd imagine the lock on range is roughly 600ft based on Pythagoras. That would be an easy one to test. Instead of using math and jets we could just drive a car away and measure where the lockon fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW647 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 sounds reasonable, may try it with a hydra in hover to get the vertical distance , knowing rockstars messed up physics there's no saying that the vertical and horizontal distances are going to be the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aether Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 We have FINDINGS!!!!! For the homing launcher. Horizontal Distance-1,450 ft Vertical Distance- 1,200 ft Hypotenuse- 1,882 ft(Approx) Tested using a hydra for the target. We are calculating an exclusion zone now.

Predpant Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 People who fly around in a jet are just mixing it up in my opion i mean its not too hard to shoot them down with a homing missle now personaly i think cool something differwnt to destroy lol.

I know the Valkyrie gun is effective to around 700ft and that's a good 100ft more than the HL lock-on, usefully... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
