i think they should increae flak effectiveness, and ack on ships and bases. If u want to bomb a ship u can go by yourself and unless theres other planes in ur way theres very little chance off anything stopping u at untill ur 2k above carrier and already dropped ur bombs

Didn't it just make you SICK to see those airliners hit the WTC towers?

Penalize suicide, Pyro! Please!

The other element present at Midway was lack of CAP discipline. All the CAP went down to the deck to seal-club the torprons in their Devastators (if any of these sims ever GET a Devastator, I swear to fly at least one sortie a week in it to honor the heroes who went in straight and slow at Midway...huge S!). Nobody stayed high to watch for dive bombers.

It used to take 6K to sink a CV, now it is 3K. For gameplay, I like 6K better.

what i think HTC was doing was making it so the torpedo actually sinks a ship being 2000lb.
I think any ship hit well with a torpedo should go down but with bombs dropped from the air it should be 4000lb or even 6000lb to make the level bombing as hard as it should be.

I think the real answer is less accurate bombing with larger blast radius.
As for the kamakazi bomber how about making heavy G dive bombs on aircraft that didnt dive bomb( eg b17 and lancs) cause bomb hook ups or better still explosions.
so if you crash dive then drop 6 bombs they explode on exit and kill you
