todays rant
« on: July 23, 2008, 03:39:26 PM »
Ok, how come every fighter guy who comes to a baser can`t carry 1 bomb.Its easy to drop if you need to fight,or simply drop it on anything that would be useful then fight.I always carry atleast 1 bomb or a few rockets,not saying I am the greatest or anything but I do alright. :rolleyes:

I don't like the rack. It still applies drag and wight to the airframe after you drop it. Plus if I carry a bomb I can't carry a droptank. Plus, bomb= longer climb and wait until target.

When I'm in a 109E, F, or K, or the Ta152, I can't take a bomb anyway.


Why do armchair generals always complain about people not helping them take a base? I've never complained about someone not furballing with me.

I hate bombs and think they should be banned from the game. There is no place for them in this game.  :salute

I know this may come as a complete and utter shock to you, so prepare yourself...

A lot of people couldn't give a rat's furry arse about taking real estate. A lot of people are only there to engage in air combat with other like-minded souls. Attempting to impose your goals and your idea of fun upon others is only going to bring you misery and heartache...This goes for life in general, not just this game. I worry about people who haven't figured this out yet. They're the ones dying in bewildered loneliness, one excruciating day at a time, until merciful death finally puts them out of their self-inflicted misery....

Even if I took a bomb it wouldn't land anywhere near where you wanted it.   :(

SirVlad seems to be a troll.
In both of these threads now he made the rant and left and never responded again.

I know Vlad, I don't think he would do that. I honestly think he's just incredibly frustrated. Hopefully he's actually letting what we're telling him soak in and not just blustering for sympathy for his cause.

I only carry ords if I plan on specifically doing a ground attack. But then I don't often concern myself with base taking.

When I do choose to work towards those kind of goals I carry ords with me. I need to be in the mood for that type of action though.

I have always played this game mostly for the purpose of dogfighting and most of my time is spent with that purpose in mind. On top of that my preferred fighter does not carry ords and even if I take a fighter that would, I would not carry them unless I plan for the sortie to be mostly for the purpose of dive bombing. Carrying ords slows even the most powerful aircraft down considerably and I am usually looking to get back to the fight as fast as possible.

And besides it's my $15 and if I don't feel like dive bombing then guess what, I won't.
