Bombs take too long to arm

[Rob52240]

When Dropping on GVs, ever since a few tankers complained the GV icon distance down to a small number.  It is very difficult to see them from an altitude that allows bombs to arm.

So I'm going to fight fire with fire and start complaining about this.

You're asking to blow yourself up or lawndart you realize this right?

What's so hard about making a "recon" pass first, them keeping your eyes on the tank until you come around for the bomb pass?

I do agree to this.  But i can see them from 7k up just adjusting to know how close i am as i dive in.

If I make an effort to look, spotting GV's although harder with no giant "look at me icon"  is entirely possible from outside the ranges of the old icon system.

I see them from farther away now that im not icon dependent since im visually scanning for them instead of waiting for the look at me sign.

     Spotting them isnt so much the problem, but remembering where they are when you roll in to attack.  Atleast for me.  But that's kinda fun though, its a neat challenge.

     Something else I noticed,  It does not seem to be "common knowledge" that a Parked GV can shows half icon range, and one parked under a tree (or in some cases against a hedgerow, shows no icon.

     Thats good stuff if you're a gv'er

Why not just make a custom arena where there is absolutely no one to oppose you and you don't have to worry about someone defending?

Sounds like you need a wingman to fly a Storch when you go GV hunting.

Your whine has been filed.

I wonder why the storch was added??? man I wish Hitech would put in writing why some of this stuff gets added in game.
It doesn't make sense, a plane that has no bombs and only a single rear machine gun that was used for observation, i mean why add it in game?

Its useless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It has it's niche on here.  May not do much but lets some of the dive bomber know where the GVs are at.

HTC could provide free subscriptions and get everyone laid, and someone would still find a reason to complain.  Heaven forbid if anyone might have to work a little to be good at something in the game. Might as well start a wish list thread asking for laser guided bombs.
