Probably the single worst thing about this game.  Dont know why they bother to model bombs for the fighters, rarely does anyone do it.  Cut down the accuracy but add about 6 more around the field not just on it.  Remember the old Flak nests in the "other" sim?  Truly neat, dont know why they took them out.  Plus thinking maybe everthing at the fields should be wiped out before capture.

 Or maybe the first ground vehicle could be a 20mm ack ack, and we could get rid of auto all together.  Man your ack or lose your field  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Maybe just have auto at undefended fields...

My observation, the acks have been toned down considerably.

You can now safely fly through thr fringes of the ack umbrella, well within range, and not get hit.

If you get close and anywhere over the runway you are toast.

Acks are strong, but there's currently only 3 or 4 per base.  We'll have different types of acks and more of them in the future.  The best time for us to revamp this is when we add vehicles.
