A new type of dweebishness
« on: February 25, 2000, 09:57:00 AM »
I saw this tackytic for the first time last night...It was quite effecitve and I thought I would pass it on so that you can better avoid it or practice it as you see fit.
We where trying like the keystone cops to capture 18 last night from the knights. Fox and 715 were putting up a spirited defence..
One of the things that was done was to take a b26 (probably loaded with 1000pdrs) and as you are being vulched drop your salvo of bombs. 715  was doing this and it got me 3 times....(im slow).
One of the strange things about this is that it seems to always award the kill to the bomber..You would think that the marauder would be the first to go.
No one got upset about it ..the guy was being vulched and doing his best..kinda lame though...is there any reason for bombs to be able to do that in the game...I cannot think of one. How about a fix so that you cant drop bombs with weight on the tires...

The one nice thing about being able to drop the bombs while on the ground is that you can kill the enemy 26 camping at your spawn point.  For that alone, I say leave it.

Once the player controlled ack (m-16) is available that cheat should go by the wayside.  We should leave it till then, I would think.
