what is happening is when you shoot through one of the spaces here, in first or in third person, the game seems to think the rocket is hitting the wall and causes splash damage on you -- when in reality your rocket is going through. not only that, you receive the damage and no damage is done to whatever you were shooting at. it's really cheap and annoying and it happens in other tighter areas with rockets, such as the little tunneled in place on islands that GDI rocketeers like to shoot through.

Yeah, It happens shooting off the ledge in c&c_snow, on the screen the rocket flies into their base, yet your health goes down and no damage occurs. Damn annoying Sad

It sounds like the invisible projectile barrier extends too far down...but that's just conjecture.

It happens mostly in third person. Your projectile is blocked by the wall and since the server is responsible for calculation of explosive damage, you get hurt by it.

Use first person more often, and stay away from areas like that.

In my opinion, 1st person is better for headshots, and 3rd person is easier to aim, but it's harder to headshot in 3rd person view because the reticle likes to shift away from where you're aiming.

I'm always in 3rd and I'm usually the hightest in kills. Wink Headshots or not. Very Happy Although, I probably suck now, I haven't played in 3 months. Surprised

I haven't played for months either. Ever since Core Patch 1 came into beta testing I started playing again and got 1337 again. Very Happy

Jesus! Why not switch between 3rd and 1st person view? I do it all the time.

IMO you should not be allowed to shoot from there at all, it's annoying when a n00b cannon stands all the way at the Nod Air Strip shooting vehicles and infantry.
