Yes another bomb and bail complaint

[caldera]

If they bail all damage done on the bomb run is instantly repaired.

This is the perfect answer.   


And when hangars or other targets are magically regenerated, people will whine but it will be no different than the magic timed repair system already in place.  Bombing and bailing will likely cease to exist at that point.

I feel that if you have icon range on a set of buffs you should get the kill.

Won't stop people from nose diving their buffs.

It might if only damage from enemy players or ack constitutes an allowable bail out.

[Shrike]

It's cowardly gameplay.  It would be much more fun to battle it out win or loose.

Rather than invoke a negative solution to the problem by doing something to the bailer add some form of hardness to the nearby strat.

oh, I liked the original reply MUCH better

it will if the bomber receives no points or rewards for failing to RTB.

If you bomb and bail or land and ditch you shouldn't get any points.
 If you bail within icon range the fighter should get the kills.
Any damage that you have done is instantly repaired if you bail or ditch.
Nosediving into the ground should also be considered a ditch, Thus not getting any perks/score/damage done.
People who bomb and bail or bail once they see a enemy should not be rewarded.
Perks for bombing strategic targets should have bonus perks. double perks for killing fighters and for damage done.

If you don't get any points or perks when getting killed, player will be much less willing to take any risks at all. I don't you'd like the impact of that on gameplay...

Agreed.

I fly so rarely now, that if we were to lose all perks gained in a sortie when shot down, I wouldn't bother logging into the MA at all.  What would be the point?  Only reason I'd keep my account active is for FSO/Scenario's.  But if my account were to lapse, I wouldn't bother renewing since I generally can't participate (depending on work schedule) in FSO/Scenario's all the time.

I wouldn't take it that far either.

Bailing bombers do need to be chastized though.

Ditching is one thing. And that is fine IMO to the game.

Bombers who bail undamaged should reap some sort of consequence or not be allowed to bail. It's not cool for the defender to waist this time for nothing.

.

Not sure how HTC can tell the difference between a pilot nosediving into the ground or a pilot flying NOE that clips a tree? 

[Wizz]

Nothing is going to change so I think people who decide to intercept should change the way they go about this.

Its like after all these years some of you folks still havent figured it out. Just know that if you come up to fight me you will get the fight you have earned.

I respect those who up to stop me and look forward to it in thw future against you all! For me there is nothing more entertaining in the gaming world then flying buffs no matter the alt and fighting you wonderful virtual pilots.

[Grin]

We should have a callout system triggered by a pilot bailing out within a certain amount of time of bombs impacting target unless they are shot down. Nothing changes except they get shamed.

Needs to be a lot more than icon range.

I 2nd Lyric's idea with the addition of one other thing.

The player in question is forced to send in a selfie of their face only (however ugly it is)   this is then mocked up into a western style wanted pic with added facial hair and then posted on social media and the homepage.   for Crimes against sporting gameplay.  Whoever kills them the most over the next week gets rewarded.
