Title: Dive bombing buffs
Post by: icemaw on October 15, 2004, 03:33:38 PM

First off the whole dive bombing buff things means nothing to me. I could care less if they can or cant do or dont. I just fly to have fun.

 I dont know if its possible to "coad" but it might encourage the use of the level bomb sight. How about making the perks earned when using the level bomb sight double triple or whatever.

 Will it stop divebombing no. Will it stop low level carpet bombing no. Will it incourage the learning and use of the level sight it could.

That would be a good idea if one could select where to put those extra perks maybe half in fighter and half in GV so that those of us who suck at fighter could up some of the high perk planes and GV's

Your in a bomber you earn perks as and for a bomber. I dont see why it sould be any other way honestly.

As for the idea... Well not many really give a hoot about learning these days. But like ice said, it could help encourage it.

icemaw, I already suggested that idea bout a week or two ago.  No one decided to really comment much on it..

Ofcourse it wouldnt get rid of the carpet bombing bs so why even bother?....  Lets be honest, HTC really cares about their customers.  If they can't gain more customers, there is no point in making a slight adjustment to the perks just so people are awarded more points if they bomb from certain altitudes.  However, if they did see it would benefit, it would be a nice idea.  Then again who really cares about perk points these days?

I also suggested the idea of having perk points per bomber you take in a formation.

One B17 - 0 perks required
Two B17's - 5 perks required
Three B17's - 10 perks required

This way it will limit the carpet bombing to an extent.... People may get away with taking a single lanc up and doin some damage, but not as nearly as much with an extra two on both sides of em.

HiTech, holla back if ya feel me brutha =)  I think this would be pretty cool to set up.  Would add more complications for missions and such.

carpet bombing is not low alt bombing, you can carpet bomb from any alt, with 1 or more planes, the more the better
