Kill Scoring Still FUBAR

[funked]

1.  When AAA kills somebody, the kill should go to the programmer of the Phalanx CIWS, not some chump sitting on the runway.

2.  When I blow a guy's wing off and he "ditches" in my territory, that should be a kill whether he lives or not.  That's how it was scored in the war, and it should be done the same way here.

3.  When I blow the tracks off a tank and the driver exits, I should get a kill.  Again, it's the kill of the vehicle that should count, not the pilot.

I hear ya.

damn right, system has a "few" bugs  


4. When I'm in my B17, and I shoot the guy on my 6 down and he shoots me down, even though he may crash 1st, he still gets a kill and I get jack crap.

[Swoop]

Yup.  I agree.


And for the umteenth time of asking:

SEPERATE THE DAMN FIGHTER AND BOMBER SCORES.


And what about tank kills.....dont see any sections for that.

I think in real life it would be counted as a kill no matter where he ditches, his territory or yours- the plane's a writeoff.  You should get a kill but HE should still not get a death (unless the host says he died in the crash).

715A you are probably correct.  

[Duckwing6]

All of the above !!

And yea SEPERATE the FIGHTER and the BOMBER Score !

Flying fighters only i rank 200 xxxx when i'm looking at Fighter scores even tho i'm in the 20th with K/D and 60th with Points ...

And when a buff with gunner bails out, the killer gets two kills.

I know havn't played this for very long but here's my take on this .

Coming from FA2 , air to air (human v human )kills were recorded seperate from air to ground (human v AI ) there . Lots of the top air to air players hardly did and ground work as it didn't "help" out their score .

Nice thing about this "game"   is that you are rewarded for trying to win the game , and IMO that means doing both flying fighters and bombers .

Take care , you might get more than you wish for .  

[Citabria]

I'd like to see the ability to sort player's by plane or at least an option too.  

then you could see who flew what airplane  

[funked]

Punt.  #3 is fixed.  
Still need work on #1 and #2.

Gunner must stay in the plane, thats way he dont get any scores, but if he bails, he will get scores according to bailed, killed or captured. (and gives free kill for the buff killer)

So, if you're gunner, just keep in the wreckage and you don't get anything .

few bugs ?  when new tour started i upped 3 times got some kills rtb'd each time , then cked my score to see if the system was working properly  and lo'n'behold it had me down with 3 deaths already !  and good grief do something about the damn armed sheep ! 11 sheep deaths just suxs ! (course i dont mind the 4 victorys i've gotten      nutter thing is I strafe alot acks down in jabo misions and the bullets expended should only count toward your bombing stats not just lumped into your hit% factor which includes your fighter hit%.

only when the ditch is visually confirmed would be realistic also isn't it
