manned guns
« on: April 15, 2021, 10:28:38 PM »
Hey Daryl,
How about evening things up and give kills for killing a manned gun instead of the auto tower with their kills as it now stands. If you can get a kill, you should be subject to die

they don't get perks, points or anything. just got shot in the face the last 2 sorties  which is funny as I had several cons on my six.

I laughed about it, took a break and will be back.

I was protecting troops when I was in the A-8, I knew I would not have been able to turn around fast enough to stop you from killing them. The HO is something I normally try to avoid.

Manned guns should not get any perks if they kill a plane (maybe a tiny bit for a GV kill). But if you kill one, you should get enough perks of like a regular auto-gun times two. Also, would be nice if that the player in the manned gun that got killed shows up on the 200 kill feed.

give kills for killing a manned

I've been asking for that for a while. 

If they get credit for getting a kill on you, you should get a kill for killing them.  :old:

If there are 2000 active player manned guns on the ship,  yes.

Does that happen, or is it even possible?  No
