Title: Buy more drones...
Post by: Wingnutt on December 04, 2007, 09:53:00 PM
hear me out.. and yes this will probably NEVER happen/

what is a major gripe?  bomber pilots have TONS of perks and nothing to spend them on.. right?

how about making it possable to BUY more drones with perkies...

it would be a increasing scale of course...   for example 1 extra drone = 10 perks, 2 = 30, 3 = 90, 4 = 200..  etc etc..  

limit the max number of drones to like.. 10 or soo I guess..

lost poinsts of you lose extra drones.. i.e. if you buy 2 extra (total 5) and you leand with only 4 you lost to value of the 2nd drone purchased..


would it bring about 1 man field destroying armadas of doom?  yea.. for a little while,  but I still think it would be both fun to fight with and against.

BufferBob finally earns enough perks to assure attacking fighters fps falls to 0 when in visual range of his formation of forty Lancs. :aok

I think you'll have better luck asking for a B29 and a N00k!

its not THAT far fetched..  I mean, we have 3 drones... no problem. why not 5?  for a price...  

another thing I was thinking of that is sort of unrelated, is that it would be nice if there were different formation options insted of just the "V"  we have... or perhaps a spacing option (farther apart or closer)

was thingking about that..  cant have the drones NOT fire.. but at the same time if Iran up on a formation of 8 B17s that all can fire at a pin point area.. I would be like :(  

so yea, thats a dilemma.

Easy fix, program that only the closest 3 drones can fire at any one time.

As a fighter pilot first and foremost I would absolutely love this idea.

Especially as an off-peak player, I rarely get to intercept large buff raids and I love to do so.

This sort of thing is great fun, I would love to see it made possible for one person to present more targets for me.

Great Idea :aok
except i think they should be cheaper than 10 perks a bomber,more like 5.

I got a much better idea, charge 10 perks for the formations we already have, this would put a quick end to the Lancstuka problem.
