Power of 20mm (Lethality2)

in my opinion, the poll has a result to use a lower value.
i could not discuss with the other arena-admins, but because the awt-arena was at 1.0, i had to change the value.
i used 1.15, but i think, this value will be changed soon again.
so check ".show" to get the actual value!

 

Perhaps you should review those votes again.

I see that some have voted for every choice, that might throw the results off, no?

It seems to me that the vast majority want more than 1.0

Perhaps your poll should have been in another format.

Ask their opinion of what the setting should be set and allow only one vote per person.

 

i don't agree.
if somebody is voting for all choices, i cannot do something wrong for him
this is definitely not invalidating the whole poll.
i agree, that the mayority want more than 1.0.
do you agree, that the mayority wants less than 1.3?
it's possible, that we will use 1.3 anyway. this poll is just one argument for the discussion.

 

I just fly in Main Arena now. I was flying a BF110C over F7, and put 127x7mm + 20x20Mg/FF in a SBD to shot him down. Dunno if SBD got some ack hits too.
20mm lethality's balance was broken....

 

Are you saying that before the change you could have shot down that plane with less 20mm hits?

 

Yeap. Before change was often hit 9x20mm MG/FF in a Spit for exemple and it still flying, turning and running. Besides, 1x20 (hispanos) rip off wing or stab/rudders or g-overs stab or wings in a BF110/BF109 or Fw190.

I propose one thing to all. Lets post our tracks when we get g-overs or rip off wing / stab or rudder with few 20mm hits. Many here claim about it. Lets put proofs.

 

Well that is funny as the increase in lethality should not have caused any changes like that.

Again more than once my F4U got destroyed with one 20mm GERMAN hit to the rudder. There were not other hits by any other gun.
Many times my Spit, Hurrican and I-153 got its wing shot off with one 20mm hit to the wing.
Many, many...way too many times my 37mm hit to the wing of a A6m and 190 did nothing and the planes flew away.
Even worse was the times that the Zeke would fly away with the wing missing and on fire......

The only consolation is that I'm told the random damage generator is in control and there's nothing we can do but complain to deaf ears.

 

In cant manage to get shot down in F4U

 

Try flying the plane,next time.

 

I say put the lethality back to 1.15 or less but change the size of the targets, or hit area. Should be a very small hit area i think it is to large now.
