when you land (if scoring as an attacker) it shows the damage you caused in the text scroller.......
I do alot of bomber/attacker work and would be nice if my name went up in lights

I think it would be a good thing, thought of something similar after RTBing and landing a few kills but thinking "yeah, but what about the two ords bunker, radar, VH and half the town that I deacked between that first kill and last?".
It would add some distinguishment, so long as the threshhold isnt so low that everyone who strafed down only 4/5 field acks and then vulched more than two kills gets extra praise every time for doing so. Also would show group efforts much better when successful (a very good thing to praise) when a group lands together with pilots recording kills and damage or just damage (as they may have chosen or been directed to prioritise).

+1 to this idea I like it

Spend less time running after you drop your bombs and more time fighting and you will see your name in lights.

Why do u care about getting your name in lights because you killed targets that do not move?

More junk in the text buffer.

I agree, can you imagine how cluttered the text buffer would be with all the attacks showing up. Major -1 to this idea. :furious

Your arguement seems more in line that there should be nothing in lights at all. Off topic, but I'd listen to your arguements for all or for nothing in lights, seems interesting.
But, don't know if it was intentional, you're come off like a dick Perdue to the community (or any individual within) when soundin like you're trying to place responcibility or blame diretly upon them with your ludicrous idea that they are the one(s) who planned, designed, constructed and installed the light board that they also, by the way, have no control over.... I don't think anyone of the people who do has even touched this thread.

Too bad you don't play anymore (but have always acted like you do), or you'd know of this new upgraded ingame chat window feature we've had at our disposal for a long time now, with it you can utilise filters and generate multiple tabs of filtered chat buffer goodness (so if you're complaining about reading and seeing it all the time, why don't you make a chat tab that has it all filtered then?... BOING!)

(see above responce)
"Major" welcome back? :rofl :lol :aok

Perhaps put the damage scored as a PM to self?
-
Why not? I still think there should be a 2 perk threshold for attaboys to the limit the number "minor" achievements that get attaboys. But quality damage inflicted in any ride should gets its due acclaim IMO.
-
I'd like to see that as well. More so for the Mossi's, 110's, and other specified attack or ground pounder' aircraft.

More toolshedder fanny-slapping?
I'll save you the trouble of contemplation, I'm intentionally coming across as a dick.
SYSTEM: DigBick blew up 2 toolsheds and 3 acks before he ran like hell back to base to get his name in lights

Hey look at me! I did 4800 damage to static targets! YAY ME!
No thanks -1

I don't see it being any different than when bombers land damage...

Don't think that should be included either :huh

Why did HTC decide to have names show up for landing X damage with bombers? :headscratch:

It was requested because the bombers guys got no glory. I don't have a problem with the attack scores getting you on the the board, but like the fighter limits (need 2 kills to get your name in lights) I think both the bombers and attacks should have limits. This way those that get 250 points in damage don't get their name in lights. Like fighter kills, make them "earn" the right to get your name in lights.
I personally hate to see guys getting their name in lights landing their 200-1200 points. You know all they did was dive bomb with a lanc and hoped for the best.

Ah. So would 2500 be a good starting point for bombers? I would say 5k, but that may be a little heavy handed. I do admit it's funny when I fly 17's and land like 300 damage. :lol But if they upped the minimum, would not bother me one bit. :aok

I go and crash to save myself the embarrassment.

The problem with screwing with this is that area targets are worth SOOOOO much more than point targets.... porking towns would receive accolades, whereas a tactical bomber rolling Ki-67s to support the war effort would not.

You mean like this?

I hit what I was aiming at, only the intended victims never spawned in.

That's more like it. Who said bombing stuff wasn't combat? ;)

Two out of three ain't bad. Think I was in a Ki-67 this time.

Try and beat this uber skoar!
Vulching from the heavens. :angel:

This would be ok ONLY if the threshold for getting credit is set high.

I think at the very least this would be a nice addition. +1
