manned gunner icon
« on: January 14, 2017, 03:12:46 PM »
I'd like to see a unique icon for a player in a manned gun.  No big deal, but it would be nice to know whether
the player is in a fighter on the runway/cv or manning a gun.

Do you want this to know if the gun has a player manning it or to know who just killed you with what?

Also score manned-gunners killed as a kill/death.   Make them pay a price.   As it is now they get nothing but upside.

Funny how folks keep spouting out score with manned guns, yet don't realize that those who actually CARE about it, wouldn't be in a manned gun to begin with. :blank:

Make one manned gun death count as a billion deaths, and I will still use them. :P

Good.  When I kill you do the same for my victory totals.

It's damned annoying to have a streak ended by some punk with a mouse who suffers nothing when/if he is terminated.

out of curiosity do you actually suffer anything if your plane gets shot down?  cause I have uppped  thousands and thousands and the only time I suffered was when I tripped on my desk on my way to the bathroom.

Oh and -1....

If you can't tell its a manned gun firing or if you don't know if it was a manned gun that killed you...that's your problem... Not a coding one

Who wants to see a bunch of gun pits with red icons that say gun...shoot the damn guns before they get you...or as was said earlier...stay away from the field...stop vulching

Who is vulching?   There aren't enough uppers to vulch.  As Bruv pointed out, they're all tower-sitting wimps.
