Chute Kills
« on: October 12, 2002, 08:28:56 AM »
On the stats pages, chutes can pick up kills, however a chute can never actually get a death, even when they're brutally gunned down.  This leaves chutes with by far the best k/d ratio in the game!  Besides perking them, I've thought up what I think to be a decent fix.

Every time a chute gets killed, chutes pick up a death, and the player who does it, gets a kill in that category. (Only on the per-plane stats page, not counted in kills or k/d ratio, etc)  Basicly a chutes-killed stat.   So, How about it?

How 'bout just killing the chute and not worrying 'bout scores?

Yes, it is a secret hack.  10k perkies per every chute.

Sure does...the reward is the whine on channel 1 after you kill the guy in the chute.

Stat page should just say how many chutes you popped per tour..Just keep it simple for bragging rights.

Shooting someone in a chute is the ultimate display of cowardice.

Waste of ammo.

Big waste of ammo in my opinion.  However its good practice for newbies learning how to kill drunks!  But its really lame to get banged in your chute by some Jackprettythang...

Currently a chute has no chance against an airplane in a 1 on 1 duel. I say HiTech should give us the WW2OL 20MM Luger to even up the odds. I'd love to see the look on a potential chute shooter's face if he got HOed by a chute.

I don't agree. Field gunners can't be killed, and the terrain is still undefeated. Chutes just don't get that many kills.

Hello? It's a game, silly. The notion of bravery or cowardice is not applicable.

And whining about chute killers is the ultimate display of not understanding that it is a game and is not real.
