New score system.. MA friendly??

[Hangtime]

This past tour I've shifted my focus in MA flying to a more 'scenario' style of flying, setting up missions, trying to work up teamwork among the bish and generally having my bellybutton handed to me in one low fight after another as we push on an objective. Great fun.. but whats it doing to my 'score'??

I was frankly afraid to look at the score page and after last nights battle royale for p32.. (I died 20 times at least) I took a look.

Arrrgh! I suck! But ya know what?? I'm having a ball. FAST ATTACK is an absolute blast.. that wicked fight.. win or lose for a field is where it's at! JABO is fun, rockets are just too kewl, the F6F is a pisser to fly and JOY of JOY's I'm killin osties now with my Heavy Pony.

One oddity I note from score tabulations.. the majority of my P51 flights have been loaded for air to ground. The scores don't consider those flights as 'attack' I guess unless I depress the button in the hanger each flight. Why not have that button's default be 'attack' when the birds loaded with ords instead of 'fighter'??

In any case.. sores be damned; I'm havin a ball.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the Attack Pilot  

Yup, you gotta hit that attack button in the hanger to score a sortie for attack.  But as long as you dinnae go back into the hanger and are just clicking the spawn buttons when you die, you take off with the exact same loadout on an ATTACK sortie.  It keeps the fighter/attack selection just like any other loadout option until you go back to the hanger.

Life becomes so much nicer when you ignore the little score button.
