Well the only reson that you would care is if you where MAD that you didn't get a KILL. ........... SO Should HTC make you unable to bail out of a Fighter or a Buff
if you where not able to do so in REAL LIVE. Say like going 500+ Mph, or like if the canopy was Stuck, or if you land a Plane should there be a Delay before you can End your mission. I hope they have more Inportant things to do Like " TOD "
:noid :noid :O :O

Good idea...

then, add a delay of 5 minutes when you get killed ever, in anything....  The pork and die pilots would have to face sitting in the tower for 5 minutes during resurrection.

It MIGHT make someone less willing to suicide.

why not bring back the max realism arena where you only get 1 life every 24 hours?

i'll tell you why because without certain "gamey"aspects this would be a very boring game.


Vonweenie needs to accept the fact that he got out gamed and move on. besides is one missed bomb drop going to affect his precious score so horribly bad?

Lancasters and other level bombers didn't dive bomb or carpet bomb GV's in real life. So if the bombers can game the game why shouldn't the GV's be able to do the same?

I admit I sometimes do this myself.  However, I only do it when the guy dropping the bombs is dive bombing 4 eng bombers.  I will take my chances against fighter-bombers, 110s, B-25s etc.,  But when someone comes in with a set of LancStukas I figure he is gaming it and so will I.

because two wrongs do not make a right..............

I suppose the He177 would give these folk the plane they want..it was a high alt long range heavy 4 engined (2 prop) dive bomber and it was used at low level against Red Army armour (disastrously) during Bagration.


delayed end flight from a GV does seem appropriate IMO.............. plus "level" bombers should be forced to release from the F6 view.........

Sometimes,.... in order to capture an airfield that is well defended you must gain control of the field first.  Putting ack,planes and gv's dn is very important and don't see that as gamey but the fool who keeps upping at a fully capped base can make it seem gamey. At a Vbase is where I see .ef happen mostly and have never heard of someone intentionally trying to vulch a GV base.

The sound wave thing that Lusche mentioned might not work since sounds can be manipulated. If HTC could find a way around that it would turn out to be a great idea. I'd love to hear a 5 second .wav that opened a hatch or door before exiting to combat this small but noticeable problem.

this is the biggest gamers whine thread ive seen in awhile...If the guy punches out before you nuke him than guess what? You still get to capture the GV field, and the best part is..your egg may not have killed him, leaving him free to shoot your little troopies running FTW!..If he grabs another Vehicle and starts firing again than you need to relearn base Kaptshurrring 101  ( kill the VH first instead of looking for gvs so you can get your kill message)

And what exactly keeps the Vehicle from just timing your drop and .ef 5 seconds sooner?
