I, flying a B24, shot down an enemy at distance of 400 and it didn't count at the time, so I took a screenie as I re-upped.

I waited 24 hours to see if it would eventually turn up, but still nothing

I have had this issue with a number of victories but only when in buffs. Question is, Is this a bug, or is there a secret to being credited with victories in buffs? Must I land victories to have them count?

Basically, no kills in bombers do "count" for score anyway. (Only damage vs structures, hit % with ordnance and field captures do)
But your kill isn't lost either - look at the your pilot stats page on HTC website. Your kills are recorded and can be found there.

Only ground kills in buffs are listed on the in-game score sheet. The weird thing (and this has been for as long as I can remember) is that on the pilot stats page, ground kills don't show up and air kills do. When you click on the kills tab, any ground kills in a bomber show up as kills not counted towards rank. The air to air kills are counted though. :huh

They do appear on that statistical part of the score sheet, but they do not count towards rank in any way.

Maybe not, but they are listed as "counting". If none of them count, it seems strange that the A2A kills are not included as "kills not counting towards rank"

Notice that 3 kills don't count - the same # as in Field Gun.

It's just called "Kill Stats for late War Tour 135", the sub line "not counted for rank" is misleading ;)
This is the only part that determines bomber score and rank:

That makes sense. HTC should make both the in-game and online stat sheets work the same way. All bomber kills should be displayed instead of the current setup. And fix the A2A kills showing up under "kills counting towards rank" too.

Thanks guys for the helps :aok...and erm... Thanks for showing my terrible stats to all :o
(It's the loss of my x52 pro that's made it so bad, the CyborgX F.L.Y5 backup i'm using is awful :mad:)
Anywho... It would be better if all victories at least show up, I only use the ingame stats to nosey at, so ir's very misleading.

You ask for things in the wrong way........... Here, try this:
Defending your buff's is sometimes a far more important characteristic then the bombing itself.... Afterall, you do need to reach your target.
Defensive kills currently do not count towards your score, only perk points.
Please add another Bomber Scoring Cat:
Defensive Kills
Make it not as valuable as bombing kills but they should count nonetheless.
Because when it comes right down to it.......
Myself & 999000 are going to reach their target and bomb successfully, even with four or five enemy fighter 2k away, whereas many times the buff pilot never makes it to target.
Unless you want to totally get rid of score, why shouldn't it be included as it may just be the most important part about bombing.
The Buff has to reach target and that should be a rankable quality.

In a way it already is. If you do not reach your target, two out of your five scoring categories will suffer directly, and one indirectly. If successfully bomb your target, but can not make it home, there is still one scoring category that will suffer.
