new kind of targets

[lulu]

 

I wish to have new kind of targets that can be
attacked and destroyed and captured by a group of few pilots
- just one too. (bridges, convoys,
little hangars with just one vh., etc. (All related with perks point system?))
And i don't want to fly half an hour to reach them.
We have something like that in some arena but they are few
and as i said they require to fly too much.

P.S.: WIRBIES AND FLACKS ARE 'UNKILLABLE' AND NOT 'DAMAGEBLE' BY FIGHTERS GUNS!?

If this statement is to suggest that wirbs & osties cant be killed... you are dead wrong.  Now... if you are saying that you cant seem to kill them with the MG's on your fighter... You can, but the chances of success are REALLY REALLY bad, and it would take a WHOLE LOT of bullets.  MG rounds dont penetrate armor well at all.  You need cannons, rockets, or bombs to do that.

Also remember that flying in a straight line towards a flakker firing only MG's trying to kill one with a fighter usually only has one result... The fighter gets shot down.

m3 has not armor but 9 times on 10 it shoots down my fighter!
I suppose that when i fire at it 500 mg bullets, at 300-350 mph, or also 50 canns, 1 or 2 shoot will reach the driver! or not? (cause lag!?)

mgs doesn't penetrate armor! Well two or three week ago i drove a p51d and i fired on a flack.
Speed was not too high and my altitude was very very low, so much that i have to use zoom view.
Flack explode with an only short burst!

My comment on damned wirbie was only a post scriptum due to the flack behavior i just wrote !

We need new kind of targets for few pilots or just 1 pilot squad! or not?

Shooting down fighters in an M3 is not difficult at all... especially if the fighter makes long, level runs at it.  As for your p51 killing a flak... that isnt unheard of, just rare.  Either you hit the right spot, or you took out his turret and he bailed because of it... giving you the kill. But if it was an M16... which shows up as a FLAK at longer range, then its just an M3 with 4 50's on it... not a tough kill at all.

As for you other request... I'm not for it.  2 players can already take down a port or a vbase under the right conditions in a very short time.  We dont need targets that are any easier.  If anything... we need some tougher ones. 

Just my opinion though.

Granted ports can be taken real quick, it depends alot on if anyone is paying attention. As for the OP, this has been brought up a couple of times in squad chat, and I like the idea. Being able to knock out a bridge would allow us to strangle a base a bit. But again, I'm one of those that believes that if you make a big hole in a runway they shouldn't be able to takeoff.

Not more easy targets but MORE and new kind of strategic targets like city, bridges, smaller vehicle field
(some kind of emergency planes refuel station with 2 or 3 acks) and so on.

Small, lightly-escorted convoys for the torpedo-bomber jockeys would be welcome.

M16 doesn't show up as flak. It shows up as M16.

[LLogann]

You speak the truth sir!!!

M16 doesn't show up as flak. It shows up as M16.

As for 2 people taking a port......... In the morning, 1 person can take a port or a VB.  (As long as nobody is watching)

[JunkyII]

I would agree with a more diverse set of bases or capturable "strong-holds" , not anything "easier" to take because honestly the bases we have now, where you only have to take town down, is easy enough as is.

An airfield really isn't that hard to take either with just 1 person as long as no ones watching it.
I've taken several by myself.

[oakranger]

You can destroy the flack or ost guns just by attacking it from above.  I did not think it is possible to do it but then i tried it and works well.  I got a few kills too.

For that matter one person can take anything in the game if no one is watching......

If u don't fly when all people sleep, then to take something on the ground it needs about 20 pilots.
Is it possible to have something to fight and to take between one and twenty?  
I think that actual targets imply a poor strategic and design map, centered on numbers and pure
furball, functional to swap map mechanism and fly models only.



p.s.:
Too much green colors into background terrain.  I wish to see some clod.
I become mad with all that green color. So mad that i prefer to off detailed terrain and water !!

I spent a year playing off peak times....you need less during that time then during peak time......during peak time why would you have problems finding people to help you, thats when the most are on?

Sorry your posts dont make sense
