Did they adjust bomber damage points?

Because I can remember the time when the new strat town came out I got something like 7 Million points for a Lanc run.

Yes they did, the millions of points lasted only a few days.

And for the OP question, my "best" milkrun was 22,561 points landed in a Lancaster when I tested the new strats and landed damage display, no reloads. It was confirming my initial suspicion that attacking the strats is unfortunately not the way to go for score & text buffer fame, as I got this result by not attacking the best defended target in game but was simply milking remote, undefended structures.

Somewhere round 15k was my best, most of the time i'm hitting tactical targets. I'll run with 2 others and hit a base to pull pressure off a furball. When we do that,we may get 2-3 targets tops on a run.

Waste of text buffer space IMO, It should be like kills where it doesnt show every single bomber landing, I saw someone land 575......make it 10000 for it to even show up on the buffer :salute

Yeah, I agree.  The system message of "limp wristed toolshedder landed XXXX points of damage..." is a total waste of buffer space but I guess the fluffers...err I mean buffers were crying that their names weren't in lights.  It's honestly one of the gayest things in the game.

I'm glad to see it, no doubt fighters would be whining if they didn't get their name in lights.  But I'm all for a minimum, I'd make it way less than 10,000 though, probably somewhere between 1-3k.

Fighting something that doesn't move at all and can barely defend itself? Hardly deserves having your name in lights. :(

Bombers do get attacked ,not like they don't have to fight.
