Title: Ok, explain this one please.
Post by: JB42 on December 11, 2004, 08:03:45 PM
I shoot down a few planes and they hit the ground, break into little pieces and finally come grinding to a stop. Pilot exit, gets the ditch and I don't get credit for the kill. Soon after im next to the town at an airfield my country controls. A Tempest guns out my turret so I exit. HE GETS CREDIT FOR KILL!?!

Can someone please explain the what the hell is going on?

Were you on the pavement when you exited out?  That happened to me once when some guy tried to vulch me as I landed.  I ended up rolling off the runway onto the grass at mid field and exited out.  The guy that tried to vulch me got the credit since he was within d2.5 of me.

Enemy pilot got a ditch because he was close enough to his field to register as such. You weren't parked on concrete when you exited the GV. No ditching for GVs.

That's my take on it.

The ditching thing is a bit easy, but it cuts both ways.

always used to piss me off to, but then i would remember that trick and use it any time i was in trouble and needed to ditch close to home.

No use of ****ing bad words.
No threat of quiting
No use of a pilots name
No use of CAPS
No use of film

Over all JB this outing was beneath you.

somebody mentioned GVs.  Here's a fun little tidbit.  A GV can get a successful landing just about anywhere provided there's no enemys close.  Now the fun part is, the GV will get a ditch if it's sitting on the grass in a town but get a landing if it rolls out of the perimeter of the town. guess the grass really is greener on the other side.
