Wouldn't this be nice...
« on: July 17, 2008, 10:30:12 PM »
You'll forgive me if it's been spoken of in the past....

Wouldn't it be nice if ships sunk were "landed?"

nikOmon sunk 1 ship(s) of ROLLINGTHUNDER

TheCBass sunk 2 ship(s) of (+) Precision

KooLBreZ sunk 3 ship(s) of =Wings of Terror=

And then you ask what about kills as well...

And that may be the bone of contention.  How about twice?

nikOmon sunk 1 ship(s) of ROLLINGTHUNDER
nikOmon landed 3 kills of ROLLINGTHUNDER

One right after another. 

Ships really are a vital part of the game, and sinking a cv should be recognized.  Grab an escort while you're at it, sink 2.

Better idea. The ability to turn off your personal kill message. So if you don't feel like spamming the arena with kill messages...you don't have to. :)

You have that option -- it is called a "ditch", "crash" or "bail".

Not so. While I could give a crap less about anyone else seeing my score, I do prefer to land when possible. I've been doing that since the days of $6 per hour to play. :)

on a similar note I just wanted to toss out that you can squelch I believe it's channel 6 and you won't see any of the "kills landed" messages (only your own when/if you do). In case people were unaware.

And that way one can land their C-Hog with the 37 kills and not look like they just shot 37 helpless airplanes off a runway. :lol

Right-O.  Makes reading radio text easier without 200 and system kill announcements.

I think it a good idea, and why shouldn't you credit for action, you get with almost everything else, if the ship is manned you should get the kills if you down it. :aok
