Dive bombing with level bombers

[GPreddy]

HT how about giving bomber pilots a death for every crew member lost that would normally be aboard their bomber? That way a dive bombing lanc formation would lose three times a lancasters crew count when they suicide a cv. It would not be enough to stop them but anyone interested in damage per death would not even try it.

Cool.  As long as I get to hear each of them scream individually as i bring them headlong to their deaths.

[GPreddy]

LOL your placing conditions upon this? Ah well it would be nice to know if ht came to a decision on suicide at least.

[ccvi]

That just inflates the numbers but doesn't change anything.

When normally shot down you'd lose those crew members, too. So the relation to someone suiciding stays the same.

odds are if they (we) are suiciding the CV the could give a rats bellybutton about how many die.

Just a way to pad Voss's score.

Aint yer score padded enuff already?

One thing they did in Warbirds a while back, I seem to recall, was coding maneuvre limitations.  So, if someone tried to use a B17 as a fighter, the otto gunners wouldn't fire if the gyrations of the plane were too severe.  Implementing something like that would be good in this case; if you start pulling maneuvers a Lanc was never designed to pull, you find yourself suddently incapable of dropping your bombs, and you simply become a large and colorful stain on the landscape below.  Or your bombs drop but they drop as dead ordnance.  Elaborate point penalties aren't going to work, only disabling the ability to have the suicide produce any virtual world effects at all.

Well how bout just an angle switch on non dive bombers that would prohbit drops beyond a certain dive angle say 20 degrees?

[Revvin]

This was discussed before and Hitech himself asked for input, the general consensus was to make a limit at what angle bombers could release bombs. Making a death for every crew member only penalises bombers further and quite frankly things are bad enough right now.

Not a Bad idea. I also think the CV group when Hit should get some damage. Like if it gets hit with 2 1k bombs it should lose some AA Guns and so on. This Would even out the Divebombing Buffs VS the CV taking Damage

I love it!  Please?

I fly my level bombers into the dar coverage of the CV and risk whatever the crew is say 12 to 18  lives.

then

For balance shall we say if I my bombs kill GPreddy's CV before his gun position kills me, drum roll please... I get credit for killing the CVs complement of 1500 to 2500.
















btw, that was great shooting.

X2Lee once and for all time explain to everyone in the forum precisely how someone can pad their score. Explain how my killing buffs pads my score. I dont want credit for killing more then one buff. What I want is the guys that fly a buff into cv ack and then dive bomb the fleet to receive a death for every crewmember they get killed. You seem to think that playing aces high is gaming the game. Thats idiotic. Gaming the game is a nice twist on words but it means nothing. You either play the game or you play part of the game. You are a part timer. If you dont involve yourself in half of the game even then you are not in the game. You think everyone should follow your example and only fly fighters? Thats nonsense. This game was designed around a different way of thinking then you are stating. I dont care what your ideals are or what your personal goals in the game are. I am here to play aces high. You seem to be on a personal vendetta against my game style and why? Because you think you know who I am and you dont like that I win? That sort of attitude will not allow you to overcome my performance and if thats not what you really want to do then stop whining about things you cant change. If we dont agree on game style thats fine. Continuously attacking me and the way I play is very foolish especially when what you are really attacking is the basis of the game. Move on.

LOL a full time AH player that only get's paid at a maximum of $100 per month. With that being said you make approx $3.15 a day,  with over 140 hours put into the game per month.  Looks like you need to find a new career.

[GPreddy]

If you really think thats the meaning I intended then you are most likely making even less then that.
