drone leash and warping
« on: August 20, 2014, 01:35:31 PM »
To my knowledge, this still hasn't been addressed.  Drones that magically warp the precise moment you fire your guns and even worse, the drones following a high yo-yo (or chandelle or whatever the hell ever) before warping back into place.  The lead bomber doesn't warp, so why should the drones?  And the drone leash evidenced in this film is pretty ridiculous.  Bombers shouldn't keep their drones when flying like fighters.  Please fix this, HTC.

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Everytime I fly my 17s like a Brewster I just loose my wings  :(

I always pull a high G turn when trying to evade fighters in a lone bomber... then they laugh at me because they didn't have to use a bullet  :(

Warpy-Warp fix the issue please. Must be a pain for fighter pilots.
