gun emplacent points
« on: November 06, 2008, 10:04:47 AM »
this is just a simple request. we should receive points for getting kills while in a gun emplacement.  for example i was using a 5inch gun on a destroyer yesterday and i must have like a freaking powder magazine and i destroyed the entire ship with one hit.  anyway the list of kills i receive for that one shot was enormous.  then i preceded to continue to get kills until i sank. but i wasnt surprised when i went back o the hanger to see i had received no points at all seeing how ive had this experiance in the past. just find it in u to make a point system for the gun emplacements    :rock

Points as in Perks? If so, which category would the perks go to?

I've been advocating for the German assault guns for a while now. Stugs,jagdpanzer,jagdpanther,jagdtiger. There were more Stugs used in WWII than Tigers. Therefor would it not be correct to add these to the game?

We would have to make a 4th category and add some perked mannable guns I'd think for this to work.  But wouldn't mind it I don't think at all.

The perks originally went to Vehicles. People whined or something...any that went away.

Add a seperate perk category for this, and they have to earn X amount of perks in the gun to be able to command a CV. If a person sinks a ship while they are in command, they lose perks. Varying on Destroyer, Cruiser, and CV, destroyers would be X amount of perks lost, up to the CV.
This would do 2 things:
1.) Enable more ship defense, not just taking command and letting it roam free
2.) You have to work toward commanding a ship.

this is an air combat game,  rewarding cowards who sit in ack guns blasting away at people who have taken time to bother to take off isn't cool IMO.

If they did change the way gunners get points or perks I say if they get killed by a plane or vehicle it counts as a victory for the opponent and a death to the gunner.
