You know, I'm probably one of the last people to believe in an oppressive regime. But compared to announced figures Furioso (a drop in the overall win rate). Plus their observations as bots drain fights by smashing during capture points. Honestly already bombed.

 

And that night, without a Declaration of war puts me off the Union boat, while capturing the CC. He's not ramming me, I wasn't in his line of fire. He just hit me.

 

As possible... No, not so-why bots drain fights. Why do bots crash during capture ground objects (enemies are not around, is the capture of the neutral still is) why bots RAM and knock? Now bots and direct Team-kills do

Be aware there is almost no sound in the video. I am not sure why. I have never seen that until now. Anyone else seen this in matches?

The bot J7 was trying to drop its bombs over a ground target, the guy was unlucky enough to be underneath him at the moment. Bot Heavies also drop their bombs from altitude, so watch out for that too

He was 750 meters above ground. I don't think its bomb burst as the cause. Maybe he was hit by the dropped bomb as you describe like this one at 0:52?

 

 

Lucky shot if that is the case.

I remember Marsco tested several times to see if you could damage allies with direct bomb hits & no damage was registered.

Of course this was all done with a professional test dummy named Ace so it's possible that someone else might get different results.

I tell you don't touch bot's vodka but you touch bot's vodka.

He was indeed hit by the bomb itself, you can see both bombs falling right into his plane in the video, and the huge explosion caused by the impact. If only I could get hits like that on the enemy while flying my He 111

I once (accidently) got a red bomber with a bomb when were about 5000 feet up.  One made a direct hit on him 500 feet below me.  I got the ground target too!

Having in mind that Prince_Mio is a known ru forum troll...I would not pay so much attention to this.

Does it matter that he is pointing out a flaw in bot technology, rather than being a troll? The question is would a human do that to a human teammate in a match?

You can see in this clip that Marsco takes very little damage when hit with multiple bombs.

I guess that has changed in the last 10 months, maybe someone else cares enough to retest this bomb mechanic.

He was hit by the falling bombs. it happens... rarely. Friendly Bot bombs exploding can also damage you, I lost half my health in an IL-10 to a bomb drop from a bot B-32 earlier this week. More common is getting rammed by a friendly bot. It's not unknown for them to fly up your butt if you're trailing an enemy plane.

I am surprised I haven't killed more than the 1-2 planes I have with the USA B series planes.  They drop a lot of bombs.

Having limited interaction with people who play online games, I suspect most of them would give one of the following answers:

 

a) Yes

b) What plane?

c) LOL Yes
d) What?  I'm on a team?
