Maybe the AI Ack should be more accurate at lower alts?
For the most part, at 500 feet the ack cant turn fast enough to track you and you cant be seen very far away. Now Im sure the luftweenies would shred you:D Much AA is designed to explode a XXX altitude (time fuze). Flying low there isnt any way those types of shells can be effective. The machine gun ack could be....but again, unless you flew right over it (and it saw you comming) youd never be able to get a shot off.
Anyone who flies a bomber over an enemy base with manned ack in AH can tell you about how long that lasts.....not very.
What is needed is that players accept that you must defend a base that flashes, not gripe about the way people fly. Last night my squad flew several missions at the paultry altitude of 10k....and we destroyed 3 bases and the HQ. SHould someone now complain that bombers didnt fly at 10k...but typically 20k...so we were also too low?
