Pilot Archive

Jedi can't cloak in space, which means he was either exploting something I've never heard of, or you saw something other than what was really there.

Trust me, if they could cloak you'd see a million angry threads about it on these forums.

"K" might be the default key to target the nearest player (unless I remapped mine), that might give you better results than having to scan targets.

Z is the default key for target-nearest-enemy-player.

I think you were seeing network problems. I had a lot of lag last night, lag I have NEVER had before.

yeah i remember replying to that thread because i was shot-down twice all of the sudden with no enemies in range.

this maybe part of the same exploit, however at the time, there was NO server lag, heck there wasnt even another target for 5 clicks away!

im sure of what i saw, this pilot was making deliberate passes at my X-wing which was cruising at 1725sp on boosters. (yeah in an x-wing) er maybe i was making passes at him now that i think about it because i was flying circles around the flaSHING TARGET

/bump, im gonna keep this alive for awhile

Next time, try the L key, that will cycle through players, enemies or not.

"Cloaked" or no, listen for the "plink" targeting noise out of place. The only times you should hear it is if you're manually targeting an enemy or if an NPC hits you when you have nothing targeted.

That, and the battle music out of place.......although an intelligent bloodsucker knows to target, hit escape, and only rebracket when inside the killzone.
