Bombers shooting down fighters
« on: August 19, 2013, 03:47:44 PM »
I would like to see fighter kills listed on the Bomber data sheet under each pilots score list. We have the damage points for structures destroyed and vehicles kills, add a place for planes shot down. In war time the crew would paint their victories on their bombers. (We have the technology, we can do it.)

But your AtA kills in bombers do appear on your score on your website... scroll down to see them  :old:

(They just don't anything to your bomber rank)

But they don't show up in the in-game score page unless the kill was done in a bomber with pilot controlled forward firing guns.

This is not the case. What the in game score really shows are GV kills in bomber mode, no matter how they were made, and totally ignore plane kills. The website score card is exactly the opposite (showing planes only) and again, the way you did get your kills didn't matter.
I checked that out repeatedly.

See my current score for example - I killed 28 planes and 2 vehicles (1 in the Mossie XVI and one in the Lancaster). None of this kills was made with forward firing guns (the tanks had been bombed). And the website score shows 28 kills (the planes) while my ingame score shows 2 (the GV).
