sucks waiting till tour resets to try and see how long you can go before getting shot down

sucks even more getting shot down and waiting till next month to streak again

when i fly i like to see how many kills i can get on one life and seeing my best streak cuz i know im gonna get shot down after so many kills.

I do believe they are waiting until they get a special 'large canopy' for the P-38. If they impliment the different kill streak tally before then, you'd never be able to get the canopy shut cit.

How lon is the streak in your underwear, that's about as important.

I agree with Citabria on this one. it would be nice to know what your best streak is, or how you are doing when you are on a streak. I'm sure mine would be around 7 or 8, maybe 9. But it would be nice to know.

And I know Hitech knows how to set it up, he did the one in the game Raider Wars.

...and HTC, while you are at it, please include a sheep creep abuse counter.... and how about getiing pictures of our missing sheep posted in the hanger too.

That'd be pretty spiffy to add. Tho you can just do the same thing... just keep track of the last kill # in your buffer, when you deplane, write it down. Of course that's easy for guys like me that get shot down all the time.

Hehe, I want a death streak too! And I want it to be searchable by name! Something like "Nifty has a longest death streak of 15 deaths without a kill"!

Cit,

I agree with you. I recall Warbirds had a "longest streak" counter. For those of us who like that kind of statistic this would be nice to have.

This tour I made it my personal goal to go for as long as I could without getting shot down. I lasted 18 kills before getting shot down over some 15-20 sorties (a personal best). It really makes you fly more cautiously. You don't find yourself just blindly diving into a furballs without regard for getting shot down. I tried to treat my virtual "life" like it was real and act accordingly.

I like to think of it like chasing Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hit streak. How far can I go. But someone has to set the record first
