Exposed engines

4saken The 4saken Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 2,282 Joined: Jan 1, 2008 Heh. Yeah been here 2 years and asking a question on the newbie channel. Okay, exposed engines are vulnerable to weapons fire from the front. What about from the side arcs? Anyone know? Have a tale to tell (either as a target or attacking)? ......................... vet combatL1 wv1,0,0 Posted Oct 13, 2009, 1:25 am

I've had an engine fire from a CGL shot from BEHIND me, land on my 5Lv8 on my Box Van. ......................... vet northernsummer deathrce1 raceL1 deathrceL1 ww ped1 sssc paintball semiprocombat ped2 e2g gwextrav gwped combat1 paintladder elmsautumn gateautumn wv race1 combatL1 pvp1 pvp5 pvp4 zom pvp3 circuit1 pvp2 circuit2 circuit3 ss2fl67 slay2013 storm2013 geek triangle198,96,31 Posted Oct 13, 2009, 1:50 am

4saken The 4saken Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 2,282 Joined: Jan 1, 2008 Well, CGLs can land anywhere. That was probably a top hit, which I would assume they are exposed to. Now if I actually make the vehicle I am planning I am going to be scared to death of little CGL subcompacts... ......................... vet combatL1 wv1,0,0 Posted Oct 13, 2009, 1:55 am

So I bet it could happen from the sides as well. I'm not going to test it out. ......................... vet wv Posted Oct 13, 2009, 2:00 am

Karz Master Alpha Junkers Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Storytellers + IP Posts: 2,375 Joined: Nov 13, 2006 Crashing a vehicle into the wall from the side of the car (therefore damaging only side armor) also causes damage to exposed engine I should know. I killed a car before that way :P. Anyway point is, exposed engines are dangerous, even in races. ......................... vet wv zom Posted Oct 13, 2009, 1:26 pm

Fealty Lost Slaughterhouse: Bloody Remains Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Subscribers Posts: 1,258 Joined: Jan 6, 2009 I was shot from about a 45 degree angle from a trailing bad guy at about 115 meters, right side, with a car rifle. Engine caught fire. Shot from behind climbing a dune with an MG...engine hit. So yes, engine hits can happen from sides/top/behind for sure and depending on the weapon, can be set on fire rather easily...of course, that doesn't happen the other way around. ......................... vet wv Posted Oct 13, 2009, 5:21 pm
