Icons, like perk points, are something that HTC just doesn't pay enough attention too.


Amen!

If we were to disable the .wingman command, how else am I supposed to go out on my dweeb hunts?  Without that command, I can't get my loyal legion of spies in Bishop and Rookieland to give me the positrep to vector me to my prey.

Actually I wish we could expand the .wingman thing.   It would be nice if they could add a feature that allowed all people tuned to same voice channel to have .wingman highlight.

I don't spy myself, but I do cap popular bombing targets though.  ( ex. Some nights all I do is orbit HQ and wait for bombers to come.)   That might seem to the bomber like someone spied on him, when instead he was just being dreadfully predicatble.

People really have to learn how to use their altimeter, so they don't go off sounding like little dweebs because they can't tell the difference when someone is at 18k or 30k.  You'll be very hard pressed to find me above 20k since the P-38 is prone to compressability above that alt.

  How did this go from a 'wingman-by-permission' thread to a alt dweeb thread?
  Btw, your vulch alt is 18k;)
