Can HTC software detect ALT F4 ?

[Dream Child]

I look at it this way, if the guy wanted to prevent the kill that badly, let em have it, because for me I don't play to keep score, you'll find you have a lot more fun this way, I do agree it's a BS move on his part, but just think of how crappy his game experience is playing this way.

It wouldn't be as much a wast of time for the fighter pilot if he at least got credit for the kills if he were within icon range, and might discourage this kind of play a bit. Perhaps the wishlist section needs revisited by this topic? I'm sure it's been covered there before.

Lets not assume the worst on Christmas. Maybe the kids mom walked in and made him clean his room up.

His point is valid, yours isn't

Phil, To be frank with you I agree with said person, he can't dogfight for his life.

I am clueless.

What is considered "in range"?

Dont sure about exact number, something < 3k, afaik. Proxy kill range is same for any cases.

Spike...
No I didn't get any credit. That I don't mind
Sad part is he didn't get penalized for wasting my time....
He didn't get penalized for POOR PLAY.

Checked the roster minutes after and he was flying away elsewhere.
The funny part is that he's been TOP BOMBER ranked in few tours ! What a fake !

Would be cool to see a POP UP screen stating: " Are you sure you want to bail ? Your last run gave you XXX perks/points and you will lose them ! "

Maybe someday there will be something done to discourage this type of action...

There is plenty of poor play in this game. Read the boards and you'll see a new post every other day. As long as HTC is keeping his subscriptions nothing is going to be done. The Hoin, bomb and bail, running from a fight, 30-40 people NOE raids, are all things that make "those" people happy so they will not be cut out.

Sorry Stran, you are so out in the left field !  
Is it possible that you don't like this thread because you are one of those players ????

I don't care how YOU play the game.
Don't forget that some players ENJOY this game and unfortunately some players DO STUPID moves because of his important bombing ranks... Those same moves makes it unpleasant for some of us.

I was just hoping to discuss a possible solution if there is any way to discourage anyone from doing this.
As for the other replies, thanks guys. Good points !!!
Bear76 I salute you sir !

Hi OPP
Remember a few years back when I was getting discoed close to 300 times a month because of my server and Dial up connection. No one wanted me running troops because of it. Now I have fiber Opptics and never get discoed. Maybe that was what happened to your bomber friend. I do see guys pull the plug after they are shot up and going down and that is a cheap trick for sure. Glad to see you back on the game you know what a shortage of Spit pilots we have here lol.

G'day Sir !
Yes I remember quite well ! You were being "plucked" out of the game in the middle of a mission.
But you came back on CURSING like crazy ! You made many frustrating comments etc.....
This guy re logged and kept playing as if nothing happened. I don't believe at all that he was discoed.
Lancs at 12k, that's at least 20-30min to achieve. And suddenly discoed. Knowing him, we would of seen comments on the "ALL" chanel or the 200 chanel.

If I was to post the film, many of you wouldn't be surprise at all !

another thread about how we should all play how the OP wants us to play.

You agree with those that bail out of perfectly combat worthy aircraft just to prevent them from being shot down?  From the OPs post, he's just looking away to prevent people for taking this chicken watermelon tactic out of the game.  I see nothing wrong with that.

To answer the OP's question, Oleg is correct.  If someone Alt+F4s out of the game and you're within d2.5k, you'll get a proxy unless someone else has already damaged the enemy.  If no one is in range and he's got no damage, no one gets credit but it scores it as a death.


ack-ack

[Phil]

Thanks Ack-Ack !

This player knows how the "game scoring" works.
I didn't get any credit and don't care much. I was just looking for a good challenge(Fighter vs gunner)

I'm sure he was paying attention to the range/distance and when it was about to change to 2.5km, he pulled the plug.

I'm fully aware that HTC have more serious problems to take care of.
Wouldn't be nice if there was someone assigned to receive those obvious recorded flights. Once confirmed by same, PERKS taken away !!!!

I'm still enjoying the game. When I come across this individual, I simply ignore him. 
The day he will question my actions, I will send him the film.

Explain.   Because you're far off of the mark on that.

Spitfire chasing after a bomb and bail  buff. Dweeb chasing a dweeb IMO.
