Killers Ride

[Aspen]

I wish that when it tells me who shot me down, it also gives you what plane they were in.  In a furball its common to get hit by several players before dying and it would be nice to know who dealt the lethal blow. Sometimes when my tunnel vision is in full force, I never even see the guy.

Old wish?  Don't know 'cause I didn't feel like searching.

Good wish +1

You were shot down by a Spitfire MkXIV flown by Player 1.
You have been killed.

This I would like.

It's an excellent wish and a double edged sword.

We have biases in the game about rides and cartoon manhood. And they frequently end up in these forums with Skuzzy showing up.

THis is easy enough to figure out now. You can use the web page score/stat pages to see who killed you and in what. On top of that you can look at film. I film every fight (start when I engage, stop when in the tower  ) and I name them "who is 190", "who was nik" "wuss in runstang" and so on. Then I go through them on the weekend and save only what I can learn from, and clear out the rest.

30 cals are garbage, that was a lop sided fight from the beginning.

It doesn't matter though we all had a barbeque down on the ground while we were waiting to get rescued.

That isn't anywhere close to easy compared to...AMAX shot you down in a KI84. In game..

It's a great wish and shouldn't have any -1s. Simply no reason to not have it other then it takes time away from programming other things in game.

[Ack-Ack]

One of the cool things in AW was the AAR report in the O'Club that showed who shot you down, what they were in and the time they shot you down.

ack-ack

just give me a simple text logfile similar to the ones produced in the SEA, but stored locally on my computer:

05/05/15
02:45 Snailman takes off from A45 (Compello) in a Ta 152H-1
03:15 Snailman shoots down Hanky in a B-17
03:17 Snailman helps Tony shoot down Hanky in a B-17
03:18 Snailman has been shot down by Goof in a P-47N

05/05/15
03:22 Snailman takes off in a Arado 234 from A27 (Compello)
(...)
03:59 Snailman lands safely at A27 (Compello)

Personal logs as such you find like this from events would be super nice... they shouldn't be much of an addition since everything you do is logged anyways.

That's how the AAR looked in AW.

The AAR would be neat as well, but I'm looking for in-game, quick info.  When numbers are low and its late, it doesn't take much to convince someone to log.  I don't want anything that nudges a player to tab out.
