"No Duh" Public Service Announcement #1
As promised, here's my first installment in a new Forum Series! "No Duh" Public Service Announcements!
On this series, I will post commonly made mistakes in hopes of encouraging players to not fall into the same easy-to-make, yet costly mistakes.
Today's installment? Arty.
Please, when you see this:
DON'T SHOOT! Even though the aiming recticle is entirely upon the enemy vehicle, in reality, your shell has the following travel path in terms of height:
Thus, you could very well end up hitting the ally directly in front of the enemy vehicle. Take it safe; and wait for the ally to move out of the way. Otherwise, your shot to save your ally could very well end up killing him/her!
I have seen this happen in battle before, and have seen confused players post it on the Forums. So please, don't make the same mistake!
Note: If the ally is about to die anyways; and has no means of escape, then *maybe* it is a risk worth taking. If it is the last hope for your ally, then take the shot. But if he can escape, or is not in any danger in the first place, DON'T TAKE THAT SHOT!
