I just played the worst game I have ever had on wake. I was on the American team and we had captured all the bases exept the airfield. I got in an American transport helicopter as gunner and the pilot continuously to give me the perfect angle for a shot. I was so close I could have killed him with a single burst from an AK-74, but the gatling gun was not hitting him at all. There were soooooooo many shots that should of hit; so many kills I should have made. From what I remember of the last time I was gunner(about 5 months ago
before the last patch), it was great. I was hitting and killing from halfway accross the map while moving. On this
game I was not able to hit full transports right in front of me! I ended up with 1 kill total the entire game. For some reason I could not hit anything no matter how close it was with any weapon. I ended up just quitting with a total of 1 kill and 17 deaths in 2 rounds!!!

If anybody can tell me how to fix this it would be much appreciated. I would also like to know what you think of the american transport gun.

Yes ... the gun was severly crippled in one of the more recent patches ... it is now useless. The Blackhawk is just a flying cow at this point.

(There are a ton of threads describing the dissatisfaction with this move by EA).

What about the fact that I was unable to hit a single thing throughout the rest of the game?

-This has nothing to do with the gatling gun problem.

A Humvee can take 1 tank round and not explode..

other then that.. Hit Box Lag...

If you dont know what that is, search it.

Why is it that when anybody asks for help with somthing, people on this forum tell them they suck? It's kind of childish, and don't you dare use that lame excuse that "I was just kidding".

There is not much to do, check your connection, shut down firewalls, things like that.

Oh and there is a topic (dont know which one, but I know it exists) that gives lots of little hints to reduce lag.

Yeah search for Sarge's thread on hitbox correction, might help you a bit.
