Title: Streaks................HTC read Please
Post by: llbm_MOL on June 06, 2001, 09:02:00 AM

Can we have them back in the scoreing system?
I really miss the old streaks and seeing who could keep the longest one going. They were the only thing I ever really looked up on my or anybody elses score. Other than kill\death ratio's

I would do well in rankings if there were some  sort of Slump recorder.   :)

When you say streak counter are you refering to some form of scoring system that keeps track of it?  I've found that its easy to get 10+ kill streaks if you look carefully.  Just last night I racked up 12 kills over one base by simply de-acking it, and then vulching the next 12 planes to appear (seems it took my coutryman a long time to capture the dang thing).

The only reason most of my streaks end is because of the less than ample ammo supply in my La7  :D

Streaks: Getting a certain number of kills before dying.

Highest Streaks: THe highest number of kills you got before dying.

Hell, last night I got 17 vulching A24 in the F4U-1C... talk about fun!   ;)

Most long streaks seem to come from vulching or spawnpoint camping.  I wouldn't think that it's very indicative of a streak that is really impressive (10+ good A-to-A kills).

How would one seperate one from the other or would they?

vulching is more dangerous than normal air to air kills.
there is just so many ways to die near an enemy airfield its not worth the risk if you want to keep your streak going

Vulching is about the safest attack in the game IMHO.  Done right, you can easily take out a single or pair of planes over and over with no chance of death, provided you have a reasonable SA when it comes to where the ground is.

Vulching a field with acks up is silly....you should be shooting the acks  ;)

However, once de-acked, vulching is an easy if not boring passtime.
