Kill shooter.
« on: August 09, 2008, 08:40:44 PM »
This is not a complaint  about kill shooter just a suggestion. We all know what kill shooter is and it's not like we go around kill shooting our selves for S&G's Most of the time is is by accident because someone flies in your line of fire. What im asking for is to just turn down to a point where someone can hit a friendly plane and no damage will occur to either of the people. Ive lost many a 262 because someone flys right into my bullet stream because he wants a kill.


just my 0.2$.

No.  This would totally distort the nature of a fight.  Currently when somebody is defensive against several enemy aircraft only the leader can comfortably fire at him.  With your change he would be under fire from all of them.  It drastically rebalances the relationship of attackers and attackee, tilting it much further in favor of the attackers.

Mass carnage is more realistic?

Some concessions must be made to the fact that this is a game and players are, well, players.

It's because unlike the OP, you have far better aim and fire discipline and don't spray and pray.

If kill shooter is switched off,may as well turn on friendly collisions once you are in the air
