Title: More lethal puffy ack over strats.
Post by: StokesAk on December 12, 2009, 05:03:40 PM

We have all seen the massive bomber formations that go into the strats at 30k and bomb it.

I think that the puffy ack isnt strong enough over the strat, it doesnt do that much damage to the 30+ bombers that are flying together.

My wish is to increase it so it gives the strat more defensive power.

Hey Hey Hey!!!

Ack is plenty lethal over the strats. When the 71 sgn  did our buff mission to the new city 1 of the 18 B17's we had lost an engine, and another lost his top turret. Thats some heavy damage if I do say so myself.

(Not to mention that we had about 14 mossies escorting us and most went down to the AAA)

You're doing it wrong...
If you want to get hit, don't fly in a formation of 30+ bombers flying straight and steady at 200 mph, take 2-3 fighters at 500+ mph jinking through the air. You'll be killed instantly  :banana:

The Puffy ack  in this game is a Joke.  Fly through it in buffs and no damage. Taking a fighter into it a death sentence everytime.

IDEA! If im ever flying over a CV or strat, I think im going to fly in a straight line at 200mph and pretend im a bomber. Maybe the AAA wont notice me and leave me alone.

I flew a heavy jug to the strat, I was hit within 10 seconds of first seeing puffy ack. Left wing gone. As I spiraled down I was hit again. Seems lethal enough to me

I want to see a happy medium between how bombers get hit and fighters get hit.  Bombers don't get hit enough, fighters get hit too easily.  Large fleets hit box's should be the size of the fleet as well, that way all the empty space is filled with flak! :cool:
