[1378] Nargoth73 Players 460 posts 3,784 battles Report post #2 Posted March 14, 2016 Atago has a plane on board. Fighter or spotter, it doesn't matter. When that plane is airborne it will spot things at a different rate than ships. So, it is more than possible his plane spotted you. Spotting plane is a bit of a misnomer in WoWs, since what it does is extend the range of the main battery. But both the fighter and spotter plane spot enemy ships like planes from a CV would. No cheating, just game mechanics and good shooting (and luck, because RNG is always there). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[FFP] IsamuKondera Supertest Coordinator, Modder 1,365 posts 13,372 battles Report post #3 Posted March 14, 2016 Aimbots are not possible in WoWs. The only thing that they coul use would be an aim assist and this is useless when you start moving left or right... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BW-UK] ShockPirat Beta Tester 814 posts 27,533 battles Report post #4 Posted March 14, 2016 His plane spotted you (made you visible to him on the map), and he was experienced enough to lead and hit you even though you were behind an island. Not aimbot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SEMI] Mr_Jordan Players 55 posts Report post #5 Posted March 14, 2016 Cruisers have higher arc shells then most bbs which is why he can shoot you and you can't shoot him, although poor positioning also comes into place, if he is much closer to the mountain then you are its very hard to get a shell over an island then have it immediately drop on the target Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DUDS] Crooq_Lionfang Beta Tester 1,999 posts 6,434 battles Report post #8 Posted March 14, 2016 When you have the target selected and his guns have a sufficient high arc then it's entirely possible because the gunners know you didn't mean to shoot at the rock wall but over it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[1378] Nargoth73 Players 460 posts 3,784 battles Report post #9 Posted March 14, 2016 Still, no aimbot, and game mechanics working as intended. Could I suggest you edit your starting post to remove the name of the perfectly legit-playing player instead of trying to shame him (or her) here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HFHH] Gommster Players 28 posts 3,505 battles Report post #10 Posted March 14, 2016 as already mentioned, shot arcs are different for different ships, just because you can't shoot him, it doesn't mean he can't shoot you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-R-S-] Sadstories Players 84 posts 19,498 battles Report post #13 Posted March 14, 2016 Whatever. If you all say it's not it must be true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[1378] Nargoth73 Players 460 posts 3,784 battles Report post #14 Posted March 14, 2016 You are missing the point. It's not because we say it's not true that it's true, it's just how this game works. Not to sound snotty, but learn how different ships can have different shell arcs and how spotting really works. It will make you a better player Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gr0pah Players 1,168 posts 9,822 battles Report post #15 Posted March 14, 2016 Whatever. If you all say it's not it must be true. So if we all say it's an aimbot then it's not? You will go far in life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LetsRockAndRoll Players 720 posts 9,732 battles Report post #16 Posted March 14, 2016 It's this guys first foray onto the forum and it's a pathetic aimbot post! Even worse, he names and shames an innocent party because he doesn't understand the game mechanics!!! Nothing to see here folks. One of the mods will lock this waste of space post soon.

[NIKE] Xevious_Red Beta Tester 3,412 posts 7,888 battles Report post #17 Posted March 14, 2016 Even if he didn't have the plane, if you were spotted by someone else then it's not too hard to judge lead over a mountain - you can see where they are since the icon shows through the mountain, so you can judge height. The angle you can't see, but you can see the rough angle from the minimap enough to make an informed guesstimate. The speed you also can't see as you can't see the smoke stack, but since everyone seems to sail at full speed anyway you can assume it's probably full. With that you can shoot in at least vaguely the right place. It's easier to hit BB since they're a lot bigger, and less likely to turn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did't knew you can do it behind ones you have no clue what's on the other side, I was turning before I got mad don't worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they can also delete your comment, it's useless. Wanna get attention go somewhere else. I was asking a question and wanted answers. Name was given maybe someone from the staff can check if his profile accuracy rates changed drastically in the past weeks. If I was looking for hackers that would have been the first thing I would look for, big diferences in player stats during playing time, since you can't check sth else Edited March 14, 2016 by Sadstories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I was looking for hackers that would have been the first thing I would look for, big diferences in player stats during playing time, since you can't check sth else So you get your panties in a bunch when someone points out your failures, but it's ok for you to name and shame an innocent player. Now you want this players profile checked out on your assumption that it's not possible for someone to improve his gameplay or hit rate 'in a few weeks'. If you check my stats you will see that they are improving and will continue to improve now that I have the correct aimbot spectacles. Either way, naming and shaming is a direct contravention of forum rules no matter what you suspect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
