cant remember if i posted the conclusion to this but… as you all mightve known a while back… rather several months back or possibly a year back… i forget but anyways, i made a post about a bot doing bullcrap damage with way to big explosion radius’ on them. well in that post… from what i remember… i detailed that a bot hit me in the cabin directly with a cannon shot and it went through my cabin and knocked off the shoot through parts behind my cabin with my weapons on them. i did some tests on these to see if it actually COULD be possible to shoot off the shoot through parts from behind my cabin and… i couldnt do it. no matter where i shot the cabin it wouldnt do anything to the parts behind it, which leads me to believe the bots have their stats ramped up ten fold. so they would be given a massive explosion radius boost or perhaps even an ability to penetrate past the cabin when in a forced loss match. this is just downright unfair… and im talking a single shot to my cabin knocked off both the shoot through parts directly behind my cabin this could be with 2 typhoons or even 2 mammoths / mastodons. i could not replicate the results to the effect that the bots did, which leads me to believe its done that way on purpose to force match losses.
Next time it happens in a match, grab some video.
I’m not saying your hypothesis is impossible, but without video it’s impossible to say what’s really happening.
Even a slight angle could expose parts hidden by the cabin, and the type of cannon could make a huge difference as well.
