Sure there is.  I am only talking about giving some meaning to score other than it being a joke.  The people that play for score will be happy, and the ones that dont, well, they wont care anyway :)

But, the guys who play for score and rely on milkrunning (plenty of players) won't be happy.  No, their opinion ranks lower in my book, but they are still part of "everyone" & they pay their $14.95.  :D

I agree that the score and rank as it sits now is all about gaming the game, but I would rather see resources spent on new planes, bug fixes, new maps, ect. before trying to fix the score system short comings.

If you don't like milkrunning, don't do it.   Why does everyone have to have the game coded to force everyone else to play the way they like?

good god man, let it go.

If players pay $15 per month just to fly around bombing out of the way targets WHY would HTC want to discourage it?

The only reason there is a scoring system is to make money for HTC.

Not forcing anyone to do anything.  They can still do what they want.  They just wont score as high.

This is not about milk running or forcing anyone to play any way. Its about scores having a meaning.  Thats why we have them right? Changing the way scores are calculated does not stop anyone from taking a pt and firing rockets on a city.  They can still do it.

Everyone gets to play their way.  I just dont see why score has to be a joke.

Is this a joke?? Please tell its a joke LOL Ok I'm laughing....

Better yet...the bombs don't drop on an undefended base due to the base being protected by Jedi Knights and they are using the Force to keep your bombs in the bomb bay...there top that one!

No I think this entire thread is pointless....I pay money to play this game like everyone else here.I sometimes have to fight through fighters to get to a base they may be undefended. If I hit a hangar or any other strategic target I should get points for it...period.

Next thing we know there will be moaning about the clouds being too bright...or the water not blue enough...or Superman deflecting bullets off a target.

Come on guys people are supposed to come to these forums to learn about the game. Yet all we hear is "Skyrock does this....Lynx does this...waaa waaa waaa" These guys are great pilots and they deserve their points...bomber pilots deserve theirs as well.

Am I happy bombing a undefended base...no I like dumb pilots that come up on my six so I can kill them LOL.

I don't get it. If you don't like bombing undefended bases, play in the LW areas. It's the folks who hang out in the EW/MW with very little opposition that's the subject here.

Am I missing your point somehow ??
