Way off the wall wish
« on: January 26, 2012, 07:46:09 PM »
  To only show who u killed, if you successfuly land.  In flight/or on the ground change it to kill #1,2,3 etc, i know the majority LOVE knowing who they killed right of the bat as well ( expected to be flamed)

  Maybe add an area in the hangar that shows individual perks earned per kill instead of totall perks and have them listed in a way that shows plane killed, perks earned per that kill and who piloted that certain plane/vehicle

You're not too clear...  we already know immediately who we shot down (or shot us down), but if you mean make it public, ala ch6  or 200 - it used to be that way, but increased #'s of players and kills/deaths started to overload the buffer. That's why HTC went to only after landing with 2+ for names in lights.

as for the second part, re perks... meh.. yuo already have the stats page to see who and what you killed, just not the perkies part.

I think he meant, you wouldn't know who you killed, until you land..


i.e you'd only see:

"you shot down P51-D #1"
"you shot down Spit XVI #2"

then after you land,

"you shot down so and so in p51d"
"you shot down so and so in spit xvi"

i have no opinion whether it would be good or not.

Yeah I see what you're saying...   

-1... plus it'd burden the server with more overhead.

I just don't see a reason why.

The first part could be useful in special events or AvA or custom arenas if the AI mission system is implemented there.

You wouldn't have to know if you shot an AI or a human.

I like it as a toggle option.

Some sims have the server broadcast your kill messages to the whole arena.

Again, HTC used to do exactly this.   :noid 

actually I don't really have a dog in this fight  - I always squelch ch 6 (and 1) and I log into the game. And I still see who I kill/killed me, right after the fact.

What I'm most happy with of the recent patches is the scrollable text window that allows me to scroll up to see who I killed, but was too busy to see the message, or it scrolled by too quickly.
