Thats the reward for doing a good job of base captures Rod. Using a 4k bomb to drop one building is more ridiculous than dropping 4k on a tiger and watching him drive away.

This is all about making your style of play more 'profitable' for you. Get real. And this is the second post on the same topic which makes it a play for attention.  :rolleyes:

If overall ranking is so important to folks, why not emulate those who have the game down?  Then there is no need to change the scoring system.  Problem solved.  For myself, I am just not interested or willing to do all the little things to make sure my score is at it's lowest possible.  Sounds like work, and I do not up in the AH skies to work.  It's my relaxation and fun time...

its easy to lower rank thats why most think its useless. i posted this because shawk had a post on main bbs. about scoring. see most guys know who play game and who is gaming the game. guys like challenger don't want to earn rank by what you do for team. they think if near top they are best. what it really is needed is for rank to be basesd on earning a rank. long time ago i wrote how to to earn rank its very easy.


here is linnk to old how to score a rank

I realize you posted this in the General forum, then cross posted it to the Wishlist, to get more attention.  This is the last time I move and merge topics for you.  If you cannot be bothered to respect our forums, then you can expect a periodic ban from them for violating the rules.  

I am done moving them.

No I understood him just fine. He wants it to be unrewarding to shoot down bombers which (considering how much ammo it takes to knock one down) is the worst idea I have heard about score.

Rod this is the first month I have ever gone for score so your poor attempt at attacking me is ridiculous. I believe that if a person chooses to see how things are done in this 'rank' thing they should be able to do so. Dont be childish. It is part of the game after all.

No this is an attempt to make things more 'profitable' for Rods style of play and thats all.

Note that I never said anything about 'skill' and thats the first place he went. No understanding from this Rod character.  :rolleyes:



i never mention skill once. lol you too funny. its not about anyones style it just makes others earn score by playing agianst others. Now u can score low rank in bombers without ever seeing a enemy, same with gv a strat no chance for enemy to defend them. and most won't defend strat becase thet think guys at them are to funny.


 now when we use to make money from here for low score. each month. was np making top 10 each month. this was before bombers were easy mode bomb sights they r now. and anyone can be number one in bomber if they care to its to easy now.

you truley have no clue if you think score and rank now means how good a pilot is.

Thats what you said about 'skill.'

Anyone is welcome to climb to intercept high bombers Rod and just because you 'think' people wont do it doesnt mean it doesnt happen. No sir your whine is precisely because you want 'your' style to pay off better.

Look... its really simple... just think of bombers as being worth more because they are harder to knock out of the sky. Not everyone can master the headshot on pilots and even if they do it takes a lot more time and patience than it does to kill GVs with a bomb. Bombers should pay off better and the reward for killing a goon should be higher still (a job well done in stopping a capture etc).

Now if you want to witch hunt on score dweebs then maybe you should hunt up the guy that uses a second account to spy on bomber missions so he can shoot them down. Im not at all sure its against the rules but I know it is happening and I know it is extrememly poor play and a bad practice to boot. I only hope HTC feels the same way.

At this point in the game, I'd pay an extra $1.00 a month to put into a fund for bounty on the %Q@#%$Y&#!~~@$!! buffs. I say if a player kills enough buffs in a tour, the next one's free!
"Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture, torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals."

challenge your not doing hi alt bombing of strats. u might do some but to get 1500 or higher hit% u can only be droping 4k or 4000lb from lancs no 1000's or 500's on a strat. and only way to get 1500 is to drop on bigest area of buildings in a strat and not hit rest of the strat.

 and this style is exactly what i was talking about. the new idea would  bring more fights to players. granted in main guy going to strat will get attention someties but those with 1500 no deaths or only a few are not going were enemy are. this idea was to make it so no one is whing because of score seekers gameing game. Yes it is type of gameing game, but you are right about guys using 2nd accounts to see bombers in flihgt to get low score, not sure if we are talking about same person but i know of 1 or 2 who do this. Same guy will change sides use his manufactor low rank to take control of other teams cv during a battle at a base. then brag about it. and even with films and multi complaints is still playing everyday. i agree this is worst, my thoughts were to make it so guys who want score have to fight to get the rank. as you can see by my scores its not hard to do. unless u want to be number 1 which really means nothing. No one who has ever been number 1 is overall best pilot in game period. and in some arenas i've seen worst pilot be number 1 just because he's only one caring about rank.

cajun i'm talking about his bombing only. anyone with 1500% is not bombing to help team. only way to get 1500 is to bomb strats only. no cv killing, no gv hangers or base hangers, no bombing ord, or killing towns......



this conversation turned when he said I want these changes to fit my style. scores tell alot. i looked up his the changes would affect his style not mine. this is how this topic kind of got off track.instead of points how this would hurt game play he started with this was about trying to get others to fight my style.

all I thought was to get guys to earn low rank if they really want to have respect with the low rank.

i bet if this topic was left on general discussion you wouldv'e seen alot say this might stop the scores mean nothing and the score ho comments u hear on 200 plus it would increase fights.
.


if seen other main arena 30 players on u have to go to it because main locked at max numbers. you get up and every strat behind enemy lines flashing, and no one base flashing entire map. everyone trying to hit other teams strats before they have to fight in and out of strat.

Now I know you dont know what you are talking about at all. Your entire post should be ignored because it is a whine just like I said before.  :rolleyes:

lol anyone with a clue knows onlty way to get 1500 is kill strat with 4k, and if anyone knows point value its either shawk or myself. learn alot from testing maps. and have tested every strat with all size bombs lol only those without clue might belive you bomb normal game targets not strats only.




lol and only a guy like u would think its a whine. post was to make score guys fight for scores instead of strat scoreing which and newbie could do.

I have never dropped a 4k bomb so you are completely clueless and yes this entire thread is merely a plea for attention and a whine about improving score/rank to reflect how you play.  :rolleyes:
