P39D
« on: September 07, 2010, 11:45:31 PM »
Flying a P39D, got 1 kill on a P47 and an assist on a 109K, landed and got ZERO points. Can supply film or still shots if need be.

I'm sure a film would be very helpful...

To make if clear for you though... assists don't give any points (I'm assuming you're talking about perk points).

As for the kill, most likely it was a proxy kill.  Basically a plane crashed near you and you got the 'credit' for the kill.  In these cases, no perk points are awarded either.

If you DID in fact land hits on the P47 before it lost a critical part of itself, then this is indeed a bug... however, if the P47 happened to clip a tree, ripping off its right wing and while it was going down you landed hits on it, then it would still be a proxy kill (hits landed on a 'doomed' aircraft do not count).

But yeah, without a film it is simply speculation.

I was afraid of something like that. I did get hits on both.

If two guys HO each other and the friendly explodes but you shot the bandit it looks like you hit him but the kill is a proxie kill you get 0 damage scored and 0 perks.
