I like the idea btw did anyone notice that this was originally posted in 2001? hehee. Anyways I agree with what Nifty says (who is this guy?

) about the crashes n stuff being on the client side. I still don't get why bailed pilots still look like the planes they were flying UNTIL they open their chute.

I personal think it would be cool to what the guys jump out of thew plane and have the plane keep going. Not so big thing where you see him get out on the wing just have our lil guy go flying out of the cock pit or up and over, them have the plane go sailing to the ground!

I think the kill should go to the first one that actually cripples the enemy plane. Several times when I've shot up a con bad (i.e. stabs gone, wing missing, engine out, etc.) I've seen a friendly in my 6-view dive after the doomed con and exploding him, deliberate or by mistake stealing my kill. I just hate getting the "assist on..." message when I know it was my kill.

I dunno about you guys, but I used to LIKE hearing a horrendous CRASH! then end up in the tower without knowing what hit me. It really added to the non-aerial-combat flavor in the MA. Almost as fun as when a cannon-carrying truck shoots down half the people in a furball that happened to be over an unmarked GV spawn point... I miss those days, really.
