You'll forgive me if it's been spoken of in the past....
Wouldn't it be nice if ships sunk were "landed?"
nikOmon sunk 1 ship(s) of ROLLINGTHUNDER
TheCBass sunk 2 ship(s) of (+) Precision
KooLBreZ sunk 3 ship(s) of =Wings of Terror=
And then you ask what about kills as well...
And that may be the bone of contention. How about twice?
nikOmon sunk 1 ship(s) of ROLLINGTHUNDER
nikOmon landed 3 kills of ROLLINGTHUNDER
One right after another.
Ships really are a vital part of the game, and sinking a cv should be recognized. Grab an escort while you're at it, sink 2.

Excuse me while I look for my can of CARE. :aok
Better idea. The ability to turn off your personal kill message. So if you don't feel like spamming the arena with kill messages...you don't have to. :)

I like the idea.

Excuse me while I look for my can of CARE.

Great idea Sir :aok

I would like this one.................

Good idea, I like it. :aok

You have that option -- it is called a "ditch", "crash" or "bail".
-
how come I only sank 2? ;)
-

Not so. While I could give a crap less about anyone else seeing my score, I do prefer to land when possible. I've been doing that since the days of $6 per hour to play. :)

on a similar note I just wanted to toss out that you can squelch I believe it's channel 6 and you won't see any of the "kills landed" messages (only your own when/if you do). In case people were unaware.

And that way one can land their C-Hog with the 37 kills and not look like they just shot 37 helpless airplanes off a runway. :lol

Right-O. Makes reading radio text easier without 200 and system kill announcements.
-
I think it a good idea, and why shouldn't you credit for action, you get with almost everything else, if the ship is manned you should get the kills if you down it. :aok
-
Soulyss...
Thanks, I haven't used that since HT started compacting the kill messages. I musta had a senior moment. :D

They wouldn't exactly be helpless, just foolish for trying to take off from a capped field. Other fields are always an option.
If you want to see some good vulching, watch the move The Battle of Britan sometime.

Doesn't take any skill to sink a ship, bomb a toolshed or milk run a base, so why should they get their name in lights?

Not sure you have thought this one all the way through.
To get you "name in lights" for killing a ship, you actually have to survive your bomb run and land successfully. This would discourage the use of lancstukas, which is generally the "easy way" ships are sunk. Instead it encourages the bombers to fly higher, which gives the ship the opportunity to turn out of the way. This makes sinking them a little more challenging, increasing their survivability, which would ultimately prolong those ship-to-shore fights so many enjoy.
I don't see a downside to this.

How much skill does it take to horde? Or fly up and down runways shooting airplanes on the pavement? :lol
-
Nah.
We dont need more trash scrolling across the the txt bar. There is too much as it is. In fact, I say eliminate all player names from any system messages. I dont care who I shoot down, nor should I know. The real deal does not know who they shoot down so why should we. I think it is a destraction. Is AH2 more of a sim or a flash-bang game?
-

Don't really know, rarely a hord to fly in or against in MW. Vulching? It takes skill to come in at 400mph IAS inverted while strafing those poor skilless tool shedders as they take off to smite that evil building.

A Master Vulcher speaks. :D They always cut in and try to make it look skillful dont they?
I think it takes "zero" skill. This isnt the BOB its a cartoon airplane game and the scoe 'hoes that consistantly land 10+ kills from vulching are a joke. Right up there with these Bish Lanc Stuka heros. :lol And to think they like to make fun of bomb droppers.

ive been stuka lanced by nits and rooks, dont try to blame everything on us Bishop. rooks and nits are just as dweebish

A Master Vulcher speaks. :D
Have you ever seen me vulching? Not that I don't but I only get about 4 vulch kills per camp. Hardly significant out of the hundreds I kill. I guess if I spent more time with the hoards or base grabbers it might be different.

How can I "see you"? I dont spend any time at vulches anymore. Not on either end.
Just dont try and call them "skilled" OK? They are among the silliest things in this game and they take "zero" skill.

I didn't call the vulchers skilled. I said that the vulchees were not helpless because they can always up one base away.
It might be time for some reading comprehension classes.

The funny part is that you assume a high kill count has any vulching or hording involved.

Kaya....
Ignore him. He, obviously, doesn't bother to read the posts he is responding to....since he got both of them wrong. He saw the word "vulch" in a post and just assumed he already knew the rest. I guess reading comprehension is sorely lacking in todays yu'guns. :rolleyes:
-

You are right. I had no reason to call you a master vulcher and I apologize. :salute You did however sound like you were defending it and my comment was made more in jest then it actually sounded. Either way I have never seen you at a prolonged vulch.
Compared to this kinda vulching dive bombing point targets with precision is the utmost in skill. And its very dangerous compared to watching the map and upping to join a nice safe vulch.
Murdr with many players vulchering is a huge part of their score. Yes there is a small fraternity that wins on skill but there is also a larger community that ranks high due to dweebery. In my mind these prolonged vulch sessions, with no effort or plan to actually capture the base, are the utmost in dweebery and silliness. I actually admire the NOE missions, Rook, Bish, or Nit, that operate like a stopwatch and capture a base like a surgeon using a scalpal.
Oh dont worry, we have some Rooks who owe their score and rank mostly to vulching. One guy, an actual Vulch Queen, is always landing numerous kills in his C-hog from vulching. Vulching a capped base takes no skill of any kind no matter how you try and portray it.
Its true the vulchees can up at a nearby base but most are either to lazy, dont care, or are trying to stay up long enough to kill troops and prevent a capture. I myself like to up IL2s and face shoot vulchers out of sheer spite. But none of that has anything to do with that fact that flying up and down capped runways, killing taxi'ing airplanes, takes no skill. Ive seen these things go on for 1/2 hour without the nearby town even being touched.

Rich....
Your last post just plays up the best reasons in the world (real or virtual) to ignore score/rank. While you may not care about it for yourself, you obviously care about other people and their scores. The game, actually, becomes a lot more fun when you stop worrying about score/rank (yours and everyone else's).
BTW, well done on your apology to BE. You might want to re-read what AkAk posted and do the same with him. (btw, when reading his post....put on your super-secret sarcasm decoder goggles...they will be very helpful) :D

Well, you directed your comment at Akak, and I know the two of us routienly land high number sorties just tooling around air to air. You should have heard HiTech and Pyro talking about vulching doing similar stuff like spawn-camping in other games. Not only is it a part of the game, but it is fun. I've even managed to catch HiTech rolling down the runway in a P-38 once :) And when there are 20 vulchers around, it does take a bit of skill to swipe the vulch out from under them :lol

I have no issues with not understanding what you posted, after all you did directly quote me. It seems that you just couldn't quite understand that I was answering a question that was posed by you. I'm sorry if you couldn't grasp that yourself.

You should get zero credit for shooting a plane that has its wheels on concrete. No perks, no points, no name in lights, nothing. Many a time I've been flying in the area of a capped base when a bomber from my own team comes over and levels the FHs. The whines of the score mongers make my ears bleed.

Or maybe those players are upset that some toolshed rainbow warrior destroyed the only fight in the area because he had to take down those fighter hangers. Naw, that couldn't be it at all :rolleyes:

Ask Hooch (Fringe) how he felt when a vulched him twice in a row with a 1,000lb bomb? I know what he'll say. He'd laugh his arse off, just like we do to this day about it. He upped, granted I was meaner than most, but the two of us understand, when the other's name comes up, it is all good.
THAT is the problem most fail to grasp. They make it "personal" in a negative way.
I KNOW who the "good sticks" are in this game. Ask any of them, Rank......Rank means squat.
-
I'll be the first to cry when a good furball is ruined. I'm a fighter jock who cares little about score. Vulching a base, however, is not a good fight or even a furball. Too many people do it for nothing other than perk farming or score padding. I'm not saying that you can't vulch. It's virtual a requirement to take any base in AHII. I just don't think you should get credit for a "kill" in any fashion if the plane has its wheels on the runway. It takes no skill and is abused far too often.
-

But the best do it because it's fun and it pisses off the other guy, same reason why I love to shoot chutes. The whines it generates and the fun it brings make it all worthwhile.

First off nobody was really talking to you girlfriend. You ought to mind your own business and just shaddupp. But obviously you care about what other people are saying to each other and like to give advice. Really this was between Eagle and I, and maybe, the ack kid. I guess thats the difference between me and a lot of people. I wouldnt allow anyone to take my side, or fight my battles. In life, or on a forum.
If I cared about rank I'd be one of those guys running my C-Hog over a capped base or flying my Lancs at 30,000' exactly 10 times a month when theres 40 people in the MA. Any of you who rank high all do it to some extant. Sorry but there it is. If your in the top 20 then to varying degrees you game the game, and probably the top 50. Or maybe higher.
An example is eagle, who upp bombers this month, so far, 30 times, landed 22, ditched 1, captured 3 times,3 deaths, no discos, and 0 kills. And hes ranked 17'th for bombers :D
The last month before he upp 40 times, landed 32, was captured 3 times, 5 deaths, only killed 1 con, and was ranked #6 of all bomber sticks.
How do you up all those times and only get 1 kill in almost 2 months?
So obviously a lot of guys care about rank an awful more then I do. Eagle cares so much about it he upps bombers, fly to a high alt, bombs cities, avoids all contact, and runs back to base. All to improve his overall score. This is a pattern you'll see in all the highly ranked guys, as is vulching. Really the only exception to this ive seen is Lynx. All run their meaningless bomb runs, against meaningless targets, avoiding all contact.
I KNOW who the "good sticks" are in this game. Ask any of them, Rank......Rank means squat.
Some say it. And some say it and still game the game.
Ack Ive read that post again and theres no way you should have thought I was talking about you. If I was I would have named ya, like I named "bomber Eagle". Dont worry, I aint shy. So no apologies to you. Leech.

My primary goal for the last 15 years I've been playing games like AH has always been to have fun. If I piss off someone while in pursuit of my goal, all the better. If you find that offensive, maybe a PvP centric game isn't for you and you should check out Hello Kitty Online Adventures with the other care bears.

Have you ever tried to run down AR234's at 16,000 feet? That's about all I ever fly as bombers along with a handful of Stuka and Boston flights and, of course, Goons for base captures which is where all my deaths come from. Hi-Tech allowed us one bomber perk option and with thousands of bomber perks I decided I'd try to get good in that one option.
I fly AR234's over the biggest red dar bars on the map during prime time evenings. The fact is, no one can catch me. Is dying every sortie some sort of heroic thing? I call it stupid.
I'm not a hanger banger. I like playing the descimate the strat game. Sorry if that doesn't meet with your standards of play but if the enemy strats are up in an area the Bish are working and I have the time I'm going to go put them out of commission which sometimes requires multiple sorties.
Just because someone plays smarter/better than you doesn't nessesarily mean they're gaming the game. Anything else you'de like to bring up detective Rich?

Not really. My earlier apology was quite sincere. You should have accepted it.
I have found the best way to bow out of threads starting to heat up is to simply leave them.
I fly AR234s too. I upp them to 8,000 to 10,000' and fly towards the biggest , hairiest furball bases I can find. Only once, in all these months, have I lost a bomber. I learned how to take them off without RATOs yasee? If I was a guy who really cared about score I'd probably climb to 16,000' and drop the 3 eggs on towns or cities. Or a strat. Bombing like that ups you hit score. :D
Your post dribbles with inconsistencies. You say you fly ARs thru heavy red bars but still only bomb strat targets. Well what if the red bars and the strats dont line up? What then? You only have so much fuel in those things.
Dieing is never heroic but dont you get bored never having to fire a gun or engage a con? Oh I forget, your "decimating the strat game" right? With the 3 puny eggs on the 234 exactly what are you decimating? Its hard enough with a formation of Lancs.
Methinks you are upping 234s to an invulnerable alt and bombing worthless targets, the kinda targets that give the best bang for the buck for scoring. And the ditches, et al, are from landing the things. Your simply a scoe 'hoe in AR234s, which is original. I'll give you that.
I have far more respect for hangar bangers who are at least helping their teams, while bombing meaningful targets, and almost always shooting their guns.

Yaknow Ack I know its only a cartoon game but for some reason I cant bring myself to shoot chutes for no reason. I guess Ive just seen to many people spitting out the last of their lives on dirty city sidewalks. Whatever it is I cant bring myself to do it. And I think anyone who would should part time as an "edited by me for lack of taste"
Not that I want to start another round here. :devil

Your appology was meaningless as you simply traded one "score ho" insult for another.

Don't be stupid (or can't you help it?). I obviously don't go out of my way JUST to fly over a big red dar bar. I'm just pointing out that my targets often make it the case that I have to.
Dieing is never heroic but dont you get bored never having to fire a gun or engage a con?
I get hundreds of kills per month in fighters, attack planes and GV's. My couple of hours a week on buff runs are my "unwind" time.
Oh I forget, your "decimating the strat game" right? With the 3 puny eggs on the 234 exactly what are you decimating? Its hard enough with a formation of Lancs.
I can take out 30% of a city in one pass at full speed (415 mph) and take it to under 40% on a second sortie. That leaves me with one bomb to hit another strat target.
On regular strats I can take three of them to ~35% on two sorties.
Obviously you're not as good a bomber as you think you are.

First of all, I never fail to land all my 234's. It sounds like you need some more TA time to learn how to land.
I used to play the hanger game. For what? They're down for 15 minutes. If I can drop the strats below service levels I can negatively affect play for my opponents for hours.

Haha, yeah sure you can. Your a God is what you is. A 234 holds 3 1,000lb class bombs remember?

I never said I couldnt land them so dont start going ga-ga on me. Thing about the hangar game is people actually shoot at you, thus preventing a high bomber rank cause getting shot down in a bomber doesnt do much good for you rank. Believe me I know.
Tellay what gaga-googoo. I have a little time so lets examine your bomber activity and see if we have a pattern.

Its actually a fact of life that most guys who rank high are also very good. A few, like Lynx, are so good with bombers they are always flying into heavy action, taking targets out, and killing numerous cons. AND still earning high ranks. However almost all the highly ranked bomber sticks simply fly enough safe milkruns a month to help their overall rank.
And Eagle is an obvious milk runner in bombers. And its his right to do so. Anyone in this game who wants to play just for score and rank has as much right to play anyway they want as I do. Im just sick of Eagle and his ego and this is between him and I. Now you want to pose as Jimmy Doolittle when the simple fact is you milkrun bombers for your score.
This thread is going nowhere so Im going to bow out.

Yaknow Ack I know its only a cartoon game but for some reason I cant bring myself to shoot chutes for no reason. I guess Ive just seen to many people spitting out the last of their lives on dirty city sidewalks. Whatever it is I cant bring myself to do it. And I think anyone who would should part time as an "edited by me for lack of taste"
Not that I want to start another round here. :devil
One of the fun things about shooting chutes is coming to the forums and reading comments such as yours. I love the melodramatic moral high ground example you used, though you could used a wee bit more melodrama such as, "watching the crimson blood flow down the gutter as they spit out the last of their lives on a dirty, grimy city sidewalk."
So go ahead and start another round, you're just as easy to shoot down in the forums as you are in game.

I have a little time so lets examine your bomber activity and see if we have a pattern.
I had a little time too and checked your bomber activity over the past three months. I'll summerize:
You sucked
You sucked
You sucked
Man, I REALLY want to be more like you :rolleyes:
For all your talk about bravery and killing people you've got a grand total of 9 kills over three months on 139 sorties :confused: 999 does that in one sortie if you want to admire someone GOOD at this.
I thought you were the great BombRich, feared by all buff hunters. You've landed 85 sorties so you've been killed six times for every con that you've shot down.
If we examine those numbers a little closer we can see that you are still landing over 60% of your sorties. I think you might be exagerrating in your "I fly right into the teeth of the enemy" comments. It looks more like you fly safely at some altitude with your little hoard but occasionally get caught and can't aim worth s**t right?
You haven't even cracked the top 300 in bomber score over that time and this is your best catagory. In fact your bomber rank keeps declining, your kill count is in decline and your scores are in decline while your sorties are not. And yet you have the gumption to assume how others fly and at what skill level.
This started out, if you remember, with me commenting that people being vulched were not helpless. You started with the derogotory comments and my references to my abilities were only brought up in self defense when you went on a witch hunt. I can do exactly what I stated. You simply can't believe it because you can't.
Anything else?

My primary goal for the last 15 years I've been playing games like AH has always been to have fun. If I piss off someone while in pursuit of my goal, all the better. If you find that offensive, maybe a PvP centric game isn't for you and you should check out Hello Kitty Online Adventures with the other care bears.

I love how people draw assumptions on message boards. At what point did I say being vulched pisses me off or offensive? All I said is that you shouldn't get credit (as in score and points ect.) for it if you do. I'm not trying to eliminate vulching or saying that you can't do it in the persuit of fun if that's what you find entertaining. My last question was simply to see where you're comming from.
You said in the beginning of this thread that it takes no skill to sink a ship so why should you get your name in lights. As I see it, I'm applying the same logic to vulching. No skill = No name in lights.

Never said you were offended, just said that if you were offended, there are care bear games out there that may be more to your liking.
