Your flying along at 20k.....you pass over a nmy refinery....puffy ack starts going off. By the time you pass through the sector, literally hundreds of ack puffs have gone off near you. Nothing...not even a ping.
You fly your mission and pass back through that sector heading home. The ack starts going off and you think "no problem"......hundreds more burst near you and nothing...not even a ping from a lucky burst.
Your almost through the sector and BANG!
Your in the tower.
Ack in AH is really laughable. I should be getting pinged all over, with varying damage equivalent to the density and duration of passage through active ack space. Certainly with the occasional damage, less often.....heavy damage....and even less often than that, the loss of a wing or a control surface causing catastrophic loss and the opportunity to bail out.......and rarely, very rarely, you should get a direct hit and instant death. In AH thats all you get. Instant death or nothing. its ridiculous. Turn the stuff off or get it right HT.
Agreed, if ack makes the kill ack should get credit. not the schlop who happens to be lurking nearby. Also, if you kill a guy in a manned ack gun you should get credit. He gets credit if he kills you. Seems simply fair.
