Attaboys for buffs

Soo attabois for being escorted and hitting a toolshed.
Brilliant.

I'm not a big fan of the "name in lights" for anything, but if HTC is going to keep the "name in lights' for fighters and gv's, I think they should have something similar for the bombers ABOVE and BEYOND the "landed 2 kills in a B24".

I think bombers should also get a "Pilot XYZ landed 42 OBJ destroyed".  After all, it is those destryed OBJ's that are the bombers way of lending a hand to the war effort.  I cant imagine it would be difficult to code.

[LLogann]

LOL...... But I'm thinking it would say objects...........  BlahBlah landed 31 objects in a B24

"999000 landed 3 kills, 2 FHs, 3 BHs, 1 VH, 20 Town buildings, 2 ammo bunkers, 3 fuel bunkers in a B17G"

And bad idea.

[Tmac7]

Yeah lol the list would be SO long for Porkers

Remove 'attaboys' completely and see how fast the game changes.

Folks are too worried about gettin their name in lights.  Who cares.

[Tmac7]

bet there would be better scores due to the fact people don't land just cuz they get 2 kills and want to land. I have done it before but i stay and fight til im down to 20 rounds of ammo to get out of there

     It makes me giggle to hear buffers try to make themselves relevant

Why do you need attaboys, the bomber dweebs say I HAVE KILLED ALL THE FIGHTER HANGERS AT A## ROLL IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

[Yossarian]

When a fighter gets two or more kills the system posts his name and the number of kills for an attaboy.  When a gv gets two or more kills the system posts his name and the number of kills for an attaboy.  But when a buff completes his bombing run no matter how well the mission was done no attaboy.  Would it be possible for the system to highlight the buffs when they do a good job the same as the fighter jocks or gv drivers.

I support the original poster, so +1


And bombing hangars is part of the game, so meh @ that

Hmmm, is it April Fool's already??

I wonder if you ever even get to fire the first few rounds out of your plane before, well, you know. DYING.

Buff pilots are relevant to the game. I love the b24's more than any fighter in the game, just hate the get to target time... I'm impatient like that... But, a couple b24's followed by a couple c47's, you got yourself 3 or 4 bases just like that. Or you can roll a 110 raid, get intercepted, start a furball, then when someone finally gets the base, it's "zomg! n00b! W3 w4z furb4llinz!!!"

You miss the point. The game can easily be played without bombers...since most fighters can fulfill that role. Now, imagine trying to intercept a formation of Ju-88's in a formation of B-17's.......

Please, don't misunderstand me...bombers do have relevance in the game. They are the most entertaining moving targets in the game....now THAT's relevant!

[thndregg]

Yup needed because those toolsheds fight back ohh soo hard.
 

Have you fought against a bomber formation? Some of the best, reputable, and patient fighter pilots in this game fight against bomber formations as well as against other fighters. Simaril and Lusche come to mind in my experience.
