Title: Hardest way to airkill?
Post by: Helios on January 02, 2013, 06:27:52 PM
I think its throwing a mine in the air and blowing a jet out of the sky. What are your thoughts?

I think the hardest airkill would be throwing a mine, (which i cannot accomplish), but my hardest airkill would be using a pilot grenade launcher, because not only are you making up the timing, you have to also work with the grenade as it's affected by gravity and the fact that it fires slower than most of the other weapons.

It fires faster and u have to shoot right before to get a direct hit.

Hardest is using getting a AirStrike to hit the jet in mid air in the head

I remember of a UEF guy, who could make airkills with sticky names (in ur head) by the 2nd weap. of the Wookiee.
I dont remember the name though, but it would be epic to see it again...

Hardest weapon to do it with is probably the ATTE top turret because that laser is slooow.

I'd also like to know if it's possible to pistol-whip someone out of the air who is on full health. Anyone done that before?

The hardest way is to play blind folded, turned around from the computer screen, and with your left hand (if you are right handed) and with no sound.

Top that.

Oh oh!
I got one:
Airshot someone having fired at the Jedi hero, your shot/s must reflect off the Light-saber and kill the airborne enemy.

Correct me if I am wrong, but mines will not explode until they are set to a surface. I have tried to get mines to blow up in the air, and for me it has yet to work. If someone has found a way to do this I would like to see proof.

Or have TK on.

I think Led has killed me with an airborne mine before actually, he threw it as I jumped off the CP in the CC courtyard, and there was much folly and rejoicing.

It takes way more than 2 shots with a recon no matter where you hit them to kill a jet or any person

Prove it. To my knowledge, unless a mine is set to a surface it will not explode.

I think it landed.  As far as I have ever known, it must land and go "clink" before it sets.

It would make for a cool mod it it did explode in the air though.  Maybe an ODF change to be like the mortar launcher could do that.

I don't think the landmine considers unit models 'collidable' but it does vehicle msh.

I can't exactly prove it sorry. Of course, I may be thinking of 1.0. All I remember is this one really fun time with some other AaTc members on Jabba's Palace, and only having one CP left.

We only had one CP, all of the enemy were trying to cram in (the CP with the droid being tortured) and I ran out with a Rebel Vanguard and threw a mine, trying to break through them. Well, it hit someone and started a chain reaction of mine explosions because they set them off and it killed me too because TK was on. In short, I suicide bombed the whole enemy team.

Well I can only assume that it stuck to the roof, a wall, or the ground. Trust me I've tried many different ways to air kill with many different units, to try and film them for videos. Mines are not one of them.

Too bad I didn't record it. My computer at the time lagged like crazy if I tried to record gameplay. I wonder if my current one can do it? I'm surprised that it is supposed to be difficult. I'm not the best with the Rocket Class either. I guess it was luck I suppose.

Post by: Shazam on January 04, 2013, 03:55:50 PM
I have actually killed someone (and myself...) by throwing a mine at someone when they threw a mine at me. If done with the right timing, they (the opposing mines) will hit each other in the air and cause twice the explosion. It's awesome.

Sir Pimped is right, mines will only go off when they are on floors,walls etc. if you stand on top of an enemy and lay a mine on there head it won't go off.

Okay that has just got to be wrong because I have done that for the lols before and it worked.

It works once the mine slowly moves towards the ground. Once it hits the ground it goes off instantly.

Here is proof that a mine does not explode until set. In this video, the mine is on the enemy and sliding down, but not detonated. It only detonates once set. If mines exploded on impact, it would have exploded right away.

Post by: Phobos on January 07, 2013, 07:47:46 PM
The hardest airkill would be inflicting enough damage with several other players or AI to kill a Jedi while it is airborne. One million health which replenishes every second would require 2084 sniper headshots, or 3125 direct rocket launcher hits within one second to kill it.

Huh. I wonder why it happened to me. It must have been a glitch or something. How much can you upload to xfire anyways (for videos)? Also, just curious, how much RAM do you have? I am assuming you have 8gb since I have 4gb and BF lags when I (try to) record.

I don't know much about computers or my own computer so I don't know how much RAM I have.

To my knowledge there is no limit on videos you can upload to xfire. However I don't know for sure because if there is a limit, I have not reached it. Recording will always cause lag, there is no way of getting around it. I just try to adjust my game play when there is lag from recording.
