how frustrating....
« on: October 23, 2006, 10:20:36 PM »
imagine you fly for 30 minutes and are about to land 9 kills. boy that's fun isn't it. try doing it with a pilot wound. i swear i fly all the way back to base. about to get a 9 kill sortie and my freaking plane blows up. going to land 9 dam kills and right when I'm about 20 yards off runway the plane blows up from a pilot wound. really makes me mad. if you could please change this or something that would be great cause this is ridiculous. its very frustrating.


has this happened to anyone before?

you gotta watch for the signs. Blackouts will get more and more frequent right before you die. When that starts to happen, all you can do is ditch or land ASAP. If your more than just a few k away from your runway, you will most likely die. Ditch it instead.

Roger that.  Every time I limp one back with a pilot wound, I black out on short final.  Never fails.  Roll the dice or punch out.

I have to agree on that one. Funny when you come to think of it... every time I have a PW and Im about to land I black out. It seems to be the exact same thing every time.. usually get a ditch outta my efforts :(

Ok here's the crack, the inside info, the way outta it, the "what to do".

If you are pilot wonded over an enemy base some 25 miles from your own you have just 2 choices  1) live or 2) die.

1) You must RTB then and there.  No arsing about for another kill you ain't got time.  YOU HAVE NO TIME TO SPARE AT THAT RANGE.  If you have any "WEP" you best wep the tits off that plane. No arsing about on approach final.  Get over you base as fast as possible and ditch speed as fast as possible.  Now think about lining up.  You want your speed 150 or less.  Expect a black out and get ready to auto and 25% throttle.  Land it if you can but if you do black out you will awake over the runway and at landing speed.  

2) Game the game you have no shame it is after all a "cartoon" plane.

actually the flight model is wrong.  The plane should not blow up because you bled to death.  you should see a black screen the whole time it takes the plane to fall out of the sky.

or since you probably hit auto pilot when you saw you were blacking out you should see the black screen "of death" the whole time the plane flies until it hits something like a mountain or runs out of fuel and crashes.  As you are dead you cannot bail out or end flight so you are stuck with the black screen until Mother Nature and/or Father Physics runs the course.  

A concession would be a flashing message that says "You are dead and St. Peter is considering your worthiness."

Dead is dead right?

HT should program it so when you black out for the last time your vurtual life passes across the screen...
