Exactly... do this and you'll be sub-400. Bet on it.

The scoring system is so confusing and complicated that I doubt if anyone can explain it in enough detail, such that any pilot could figure out exactly what is happening to create your overall score. While there are those who would give you a general picture of the scoring system, it would take pages of mathematical formulas to give you the exact scoring system.

It's time to revamp the scoring system and make it much more simplified.

tatertot, forget about ranks and scores dude.  We had a blast the other day pummeling each other in tanks.. it had nothing to do with rank.  Find out what is fun for you in the game and stick to it. Whatever it is, someone will come along and tell you that you are doing it wrong, not playing the game right, or that you are just a plain old dweeb for doing it. Until they pay your $15.00/month, they really don't have any say.  Do what is fun, it's why you are here(presumption)

Air to air, this is the toughest to increase because it's the only one that requires any skill, the others just need time and targets.

Good luck

 Amen brother.But then again ya put down your money ya play the way ya want.Im sure no one will dissagree that the $ for score potatos has changed the odds on weather some jagoff above you will come down to clear your tail or stay hi to land his precious kills and maby get 50 clams that month.Well nobody but said score potatos that is.I fly for the squad.Allways did allways will.Score is on no importance but thats the way I prefer to play it.

I have a question for the group.  How does one get a field capture in attack mode??   Obviously its possible because my rank in that category goes up every day.

I don't think you can get a field capture in attack mode even though it's listed, at least I've never heard of a way.

used to be doable thru a bug.... get drunks out, exit and hit runway in attack plane before capture... it'd be scored under attack.  supposedly fixed a while back.  might be self correcting, not sure.

I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
