Heh. It only took until AHII beta to see icons below planes feature implemented.

I'm curious as to whether or not this will be implimented for gvs. If so to me it means there will be no icons for any gvs, friendly, or enemy (as the icon will be underground).

it does for deflection shooting and searching for cons.

Like thrila said it makes quite a difference for deflection shooting when you can use the icon to help aiming. Not to mention the hit sprites visible through cockpit which make it even easier to shoot planes that are below the cownling.

the hit sprites are visible thru the cockpit in AH1, so he probably means they are not anymore, and that the icons aren't as visible in lead shots.

I tried to vulch Mane the other night in the Beta. Made it VERY difficult with no icon till he lifted off.

This IS going to make vulching a true art form and is going to make Ground vehicles MUCH more fun.

Good thinking IMO HT, you sneaky ol Bastige! WTG
