question about bailing?
« on: November 15, 2001, 06:22:00 AM »
if you bail out do you save more perk points?

isnt it easyer just to crash and burn with your wings?

do you save more points if you bail in enemy terr, freindly terr, or land and ditch in freindly terr?

Sigh. So much for the "experts".

The perk points you earned are all added up at the end of a mission, and multiplied with a number that depends on your outcome. Lets say you scored 2 perks.

You landed: 2 x 1 = 2 perks
You discoëd (disconnected): 2 x 0.25 = 0.5 perks
You bailed: 2 x 0.5 = 1 perk
You ditched: 2 x 0.75 = 1.5 perk
You were captured: 2 x 0.4 = 0.8 perk
You were killed: 2 x 0.25 = 0.5 perk
You crashed: 2 x 0.25 = 0.5 perk

See, it aint hard to just answer a question.

Sorry, but this is all wrong.

If you have a missing in which you shoot down 2 of what you are flying and thus have 2 perk points, the following modifiers take effect depending on how your mission ends:

You landed: 2 * 1.25 = 2.5 perks
You disconnected: 2 * 1 = 2 perks
You bailed: 2 * 1 = 2 perks
You ditched: 2 * 1 = 2 perks
You were captured: 2 * 1 = 2 perks
You were killed: 2 * 1 = 2 perks
You crashed: 2 * 1 = 2 perks

If you are flying an Me262 (200 perk point aircraft) and shoot down another 262, your points are modified as follows for mission endings:

You landed: 1 x 1.25 = +1.25 perks
You disconnected: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks
You bailed: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks
You ditched: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks
You were captured: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks
You were killed: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks
You crashed: 1 * 1 - 200 = -199 perks

In short, the only modifier is a 25% bonus for landing a mission.

Keez, those multipliers don't apply for perk points. Only "regular" points.

Perk points only have 2 mulipliers:

You land you get x1.25
You don't you get x1.00

+ pure manouver kills (not hit the enemy with single shot) don't give any perk points at all.
