Most who have been playing BZ for more than a week know about E-W bug. Those who don't, should check these videos to avoid (I hit you, but you didn't take any damage) confusion.

When in straight E-W line and when the distance is greater than approximately 30m you can't damage your opponent. On your screen it will look like a hit, but on opponent's it will look like a miss.


When in N-S line or in any other position everything is normal.


Only thing you can do about it is to watch radar and never shoot when heading E-W.

Has it always been like this? man, I played for 6 years and never did I see that or maybe I had and attributed it to lag or something?

Wow... The video certainly helps to see whats going on....

I never noticed it, but hell, how often are you and your opponent sitting E-W of each other trading blows?

Well, you have about 350 degress to play with, but at some time or another you'll unknowingly fight someone E-W and won't know it, unless you constantly watch your Terrain radar.

Yes, so how you know its only 10 degrees attributed to it? It could be 5-6, or even 15 degrees attributted to it. :roll:

The thing is that some of the best maps are made in N-S/E-W line. Take Corner Pocket and Compass for example. You can't avoid shooting E-W there. Then there's Coli DM map...
