I wouldn't think so. And the bugs forum isn't really the place to ask a question which your text implied without the ?

Attack captures were when you dropped troops for the capture, then respawned with an attack sortie selected. A rather gamey way of artificially inflating your score.

No, that bug was fixed the day after it became a bug.  Captures are back to normal

I don't think you can do that anymore.  They changed it so if you drop troops or bombs...bail..respawn your troops/bombs disappear.  I am not sure but there is no way to get an attack capture anymore.

There was a bug with one of the last few patches where bombers were scoring in the attack sortie, at least with captures.  It was fixed the next day.

After the latest change in strats there was a short period where goons scored in attack mode and it should be fixed now. Not sure why it hasnt been fixed in the ranks.

Not everything requires a patch to fix, hence why it isn't listed in a readme. It was a host-side fix.

You know I never could figure out why there was even a catagory of attack captures to begin with unless Dale wanted the game to be gamed.
