airplane impervious to bullets

[Draakje]

As for arcade aiming, aim infront of the leading cross, because of the lag you will miss the plane if u aim at the same place u would do in singleplayer.
There are also some people around with lagswitches, had a couple of em yesterday they look like they stop in midair then u fly em by and then they dont lag anymore and shoot u down with ease.

Is this even possible with a console game? And is this on XBoxLive or PSN?

Not sure if this may be part of the problem, but it also depends on your distance away from the target you are shooting at. Bullets do more damage per hit the closer you are to the target. Far distances may hit, but not do near as much damage per bullet.

Do you have any proof of this? It makes sense, but I have shot people to flames with relative short burst from 1.0km (although mostly lucky hits). It might just seem that way since it's harder to hit someone further away, so you'd think the bullets do less damage.

Hammerhead it is. You're very prone to spinning when you try this though, so it's a little tricky. Unless you're on Arcade ofc.

Be careful not to get too over-excited for Realistic. It's definitely not gonna solve all your problems right away . It'll require some practice, especially with leading the target, so expect to miss quite a bit still. But at least when you hit something you might actually notice it from your target's movements. Especially Spits are devils to fly when hit in a wing.
