Title: scoring system
Post by: phentop on April 03, 2002, 04:50:43 PM

Do you only get a confirmed kill when you land successfuly??
If so the question goes no further..If not then theirs something
very wrong in this last patch...
last night logged on and had 3 kills and 3 successfull lands- by the end of the night I had taken off 4 times and had 5 kills
tonight I logged on and had 3 kills and 4 successfull lands
whats up with this picture????

and your point is? :)

confirmed kill is when you see "kill message" on text buffer. you don't need to land after that (but it's nice to land all stories ;))

still, i can't see anything wrong here...

i think he is saying when he logged off he had 4 landings and 5 kills and when he logged back in he only had 3 landings and 4 kills

yea the way I wrote it is not too clear

logged in had  3 kills and 3 lands
durring that log in I took off 4 times and had a total of
5 confirmed kills. landed one safely.
now my math that = 4 safe lands and 8 confirmed kills

logged off

next day logged on and had 3 confirmed kills and 4 safe lands

The system did not record any of my kills?????

I was starting to think It was just me... Did it agian last night
I'm starting to think it is a bug.. Was in ground vehicle
shot down and was CONFIRMED "7".  
My stats before entering combat for the night

7 kills     11 successfull lands

AFTER AN HOUR OF FIGHTING I RACKED UP ANOTHER
7 (AND IT SHOWED THEY WERE CONFIRMED) KILLS
AND 3 MORE SUCCESSFULL LANDINGS

LOGGED OUT FOR AN HOUR CAME BACK AND MY STATS WERE

TOATAL : 7 KILLS
               14 LANDS

WTF?????

I have also seen some flaky things going on ...

Last night while flying, I ripped the wings off of at least 5 planes, watched them go into the ground and never saw the "kill" message and didn't get credit/perks for the kills.

During one flight, the first plane I shot down, I received the "kill" message, I then proceeded to shoot down two more planes and never received the kill message on those 2 planes.

Also, over the weekend when the knights won the war, I never received the 20 perk points (I was logged on), rather I had 20 perk points deducted (net -40 perk points).

Yep, I'm seeing the same thing....  Should this thread be sent over to the bug report forum....

Go to the stats page, not the scoring summary page and look at how the numbers look there.  Typically the number of kills you have on the stats page is a bit higher than on the scoring summary page.  I forget the reason for this but I think it has something to do with kills on GV's (maybe PT's, dunno).

The scenario I've seen this on is when you kill GV's with bombers, or with fighters set to "fighter" and not "attack".  If you want to hunt GV's then make sure you do it with the toggle set to attack.

Or something like that.  I forget, someone explained it once somewhere but has been a while.
