Author Topic: Landing message for Bombers (Read 1450 times)

When you are in a fighter and you get at least 2 kills, your name will be in lights for all to see.

Bombers should also see their name in lights, but not for killing airplanes. It should say x amount of objects destroyed.

I know this isn't a perfect idea, or maybe even the first time it's been posted. It's at least something better than the current method we have.

I got this idea from blukitty from the general discussion forum.

Sounds like an idea, but I'd also extend it to include ANY mission scored as attack or bomber (Jabbos included).

Splendid idea!
This could have a big positive influence on MA behaviour.

You spend 2 hours in a mission and you get 5 assists, but you survive and make it back, having bombed the crap out of 5 strat objects --- I think that's worth some "name in lights" time!!!

We should also get the total oppisite. Maybe something like.

SYSTEM: XXXXX dropped 14000 lbs. in Lancs and got nothing

or
"xxxxx bailed to avoid getting shot down"
"hey xxxxx, at least you managed to hit the ground with those bombs"
"xxxxxx, pull up next time"

Interesting, as I'd take all the 'name in lights" messages and get rid of em. Can you imagine how the gameplay would change if it wasn't the land of 'attaboys"?

I could only hope for something like this...

SYSTEM: IronChef Killed 4 Fighter Hangars and left 37 Furballers Whining

SYSTEM: XXXXX got owned by a P51B. Get some skillz you dweeb.

System: UserID did not dive-bomb his lancaster this time.

you could even fit in behind: , thus hit nothing.

Almost anything would be an improvement at this point. Two years and counting for me, and there's still just the AR234 to spend my 6K perk collection on.
