    Vulture's aim.

    Dear god did this piss me off, and has in the last few games that I tried this, but not so much as this last game. 

     

    SCENARIO:

    I'm Anders, my two team mates are also UNSC, but that is irrelevant, all that matters is that they had heavy vehicles (mainly Scorpions). Two of my enemies are dead, and I have four Vultures, upgraded. I think: "You know what would be awesome? If I charged his main base and blast them with my Y attack while they get rushed with Scorpions and Cobra's." So I do so, and I manage to beat my team mates there (I still don't know how seeing as how slow Vulture's are, especially in a pack of four). I highlight their base, press Y and... Nothing. I see all the missiles fire, but they miss, I would say that the main bases health was at about 98%, and I'm not joking, I looked and checked. What a waste of time.

     

    Conclusion:

     Vulture's aim needs to be fixed or something, as this isn't the first time the Vulture's aim failed me, I mean honestly, it's a god *** military air ship, you cannot tell me that a military air ship cannot hit a target bigger then my house, bigger then Yankee stadium, with one missile while it isn't even under fire. Not one of them.

    Re: Vulture's aim.

    I agree. the vulture's Mega barrage upgrade says it doubles the amount of missiles fired... but a lot of times it also misses most of them, so basically it's doing the same dmg than it did without the upgrade...(when it misses).

     

    I've had times when it misses all but 1 missile...

    The missiles may not look like they are hitting, but really they are, its screen lag. I have barraged the arbitor whilst he is in rage and although the missiles look like they are firing here there and everywhere like diarrhoea hitting the sides of your toilet they do actually hit.

    lmao good imagery.

     

    I've stopped using Vultures since I first started, but I know that they can miss. So the Missile vs Arbiter is a special case- still, these can also happen. 

    My 2c on this is: raise the hit rate only slightly because their barrage is OP in hit and run situations otherwise.

    Re: Vulture's aim.

    it misses if you are too close, the barage is good for hit and run therefore its quite long ranged.

    I get banned for no reason

    Re: Vulture's aim.

    did you know that vultures have better aim when his objective is far away???  I hope this helps you.

    you don't need to write all of that, I stopped reading at SCENARIO:,,,,
