Destroy a plane yet no kill or assist

[The Fugitive]

You may be misunderstanding, it's normal for a pilot to get credited with a kill when his target ditches in aces high no matter if the ditched pilot lived or died. I don't care about what happens to the ditched pilot, that isn't the issue here. The issue is shooting down a plane and not getting credit for it. If you pluck the wings off of a plane and it splashes down in the ocean, that's a kill in everybody's book. In aces high we're awarded kills for destroying planes, not pilots. Why? Because that's the way it was in WWII.

I think you may be misunderstanding here. This is a game, "IF" someone ditches they didn't "die" so you can't have a kill. All the numbers have to match, it's all or nothing in a game. Computers are 1's and 0's. Have you checked the scores? They have nothing in there about how many planes you shot down, only kills. If you don't kill you don't get credit for a kill. Again, this IS NOT WWII so those rules don't apply.

Disagree-- by 1945, Axis had plenty of good aircraft, but no trained pilots to fly them, nor extra gas to train noobs...losing the plane was inconsequential

As far as spawning to kill me?.............you don't spawn and .ef twice with your back to the enemy at D600 unless you are gaming the game.

No need for me to go through a bunch of 3 hour films to find it because snailman did not deny the spawn/respawn.

You should read my statement again.

  Why Lusche??   Everyone knows you just wanted to pad your score with a proxie....

i think you misunderstand.. when a badguy bails from a damaged plane, he lives possibly, but the shooter still gets a kill.. 8)

but i do agree, if you can ditch your plane in a friendly area without dying, the badguy doesn't deserve the kill..

First off, I'm not voicing an opinion here, I'm just saying it how it is.

Your right, if the critical level has been hit and the guy bails you get the kill, but then the "bailer" has "given up the ghost" as far as that flight is concerned anyway right? No reward for riding a chute down, but if you can get it landed.......

He had time to do this TWICE when you were at a distance of 600? I find that odd since  you would either have to be in a Storch or weather balloon. not to have past him before he even got the 'e' in '.ef' typed in the first time. I think your post is growing mushrooms...

I'm confused. What exactly did I type in that quote that you disagree with?

What? if someone ditches you certainly can be awarded a kill. WTF? Seariously, you've never ditched and got a "so-n-so shot you down" message? That's a kill my friend.

Only if you "ditch" in enemy territory, then you are captured and a kill is awarded.

You don't need to hit a critical level on a plane to get the kill if he bails, actually you don't even need to hit him if you're close enough to him when he bails.

Exactly. You don't need to be killed to give someone a kill.

If you end flight on the ground while in the plane (ditch) you will get a you have ditched message if you are on the ground ditched and exit the plane ( hit enter ) you will get X X  player shot you down

Yes but there is a difference between nursing your plane back to friendly territory and getting shot down.
