ah but you don't die, technecly(don't know how to spell that word)

Which is ENTIRELY why kamikazes have no place in the game.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

+1 good idea but no points and it counts as a crash. I think damage should depend on the type of plane,(bomber,fighter,etc...) :joystick:

 :headscratch:

So your saying, since you don't die technically (meaning IRL), then Kamikaze Mode has no place in the game?
Extrapolating on that, you could say none of the current game has place in the game. Because all of it is about not dying, technically (meaning IRL).

I really don't see the sense of that statement and I thought I would share this observation with you.

Without there being any kind of consequence for death, kamikaze becomes a more viable method of attack than actual bombing. It's much more accurate and much easier for your average hordling to accomplish.
While in reality it's a terrible weapon and one of absolute last resort.

So,

Nay obviously....
Suicide dive bombing is bad enough as it is, do you really want for every attack on an airfield to just be a horde of noobs auguring into whatever they want to kill, and actually killing it?

Sure, but once you kamikaze you cannot get on AH for 3 months and you are banned from the Forums for a year.

More or less the gist of what I'd said already.

Aye!

Many times I have wished for a 'Kamikaze Mode' (as opposed to fighter / attack) when I tried to fight off the bish horde. I do not see why you are depriving me of this option.  :cry

Easy! When you select kamikaze mode 100 perks from each category will be subtracted when you die.
It is 2 Cents or .02 Dollars...NOT .02 Cents!

I thought Kamikazes were already part of the game. Just go to the DA you're bound to run into 1 or 5.
