ridley,

Just as a point of order, this technically constitutes a B-29 request itself.

Or a "sticky" to stop the stickies for stickies to stop the B-29 requests.  :aok

I disagree.  Maybe what I should have said, or requested  a sticky saying "X piece of machinery is not planned to be introduced because....."

There, by generalization, I have discarded the stigma of requesting  said bomber.

I think.

You're just giving him crap, right?  Because otherwise I disagree.

B29 is not an "instant-action" plane for the masses. Most would have too little patience to fly it right.

I second the idea for a B29 Sticky!!!  (a plane which is already built btw)

No Nook, not ever.... :confused:

I wouldn't put it past the HTC staff to have created some planes such as the B-29 in their very limited free time, and are withholding it, just to bug us, and because they haven't heard an efective way of implementing it into the game.



And you know what ridely1? I wish we would stop trying to get thread types banned, or to get people to stop posting threads. It's NOT going to happen. Most people agree that there shoud be no nuke, if that is what your worried about. And to be honest, I bet a lot of people who oppose the B-29, oppose it because it will decrease their KTD ratio if they attack it. I'm a lousy shot, but I can take out the bombers we have with a P-51B, so I think other planes with cannons can deal with the B-29.

It's more like people oppose the B-29 because they really don't want to see a very late-war bomber aircraft turned into a bloated suicide-jabo by a typical MA gamin'-the-game-dork, flying 500ft over enemy airfireld to drop hangars, or go headlong smack in the middle of a CV taskforce and KO it, before getting blown back to the tower.

Seems like a pretty big waste to me. I'm sorry but whoever does that doesn't deserve his bomber.

Wise words from someone who has a grand total of 1 B-series bomber kill on line, in an La 7.

WHAT!!!! Are you serious? I'm guarantee I have shot down a B-24 with a P-51B. Damn, that sucks. Let me check to see what else I lost.

'Lost'? The scores and stats record all kills and deaths that happen. Nothing's 'lost'.

The point I'm trying to make is that you should stop commenting/pontificating on what is proper game play and what it's like, how easy it is to do things etc. when you have so little experience doing much of anything yourself.

No, no, no. I mean like got it stolen or he made it back, or I only got an assist. I lost that P-51b kill, lost a Bf110 kill, 2 gunship or field gunner kills, and a B-26kill. However, It also shows I was killed less times than is true by an A20, Bf110, and one less death by a Spit16.

I'm not saying killing a B-29 will be easy. In fact, I'm betting it will be challanging. What I'm saying is this: If a player who has, for all practical pourposes, just started playing, can kill a B-25 in a P-52B with 4x .50's, then a player more expirenced than I, should be able to kill a B-29 with a P-38, or a Fw-190, or a Yak-9U.

They may not be lost, but they might not be displaying properly. The scores have been encountering some difficulties after each tour rotation during the past few months.

As I said previously, several kills didn't register, but neither did several deaths, so I'm not complaining.



Yea Ace, I wasn't lazy enough not to use the spell check today. Also, I was feeling kinda nit picky yesterday.
