Q? i know about off map flying but what is CARBOMBING?? never heard of that one.
I think off mapping is a kinda off thing to do, i do remeber one of my squaddies though, we were both flying tiffys towards a feild just inside the map boundary i was flying level with him and when we reached the field i was waiting for him to turn, but he didnt, after about 4 mins of me litterary shouting at him thought the squad channel to WAKE up or come back from the beer fridge, i decided that he was otherwise engauged at thing his end and turned back to the map, after about 15 mins i looked at the map and saw this single orange dot about half the map distace again off the map lol, either he had got booted and his aircraft just kept on flying, or he eventually came back to his keybord and thought 'DARN IT' thats some flight back

its amazing just how far off map you can actually fly, is there any limit at all?
Oh yes and i actually think the reason that you CAN go off map to make the sim more realistic, it would be kinda bad to have an invisible wall which you crashed into or turned you away, could be a real pain if your dogfighting near the edge, its kida like haveing a huge ocean all around the map and makes it feel like an unending world, dont think its there for off map tactics. Not that i get realy mad about it, butits a bit sneeky and unfair, like takeing advantage of a bug.
