Urchin  your rooks sent 40+ suicides into cv. You were trying to pick offf just taking off planes you died. Game worked exactly how it shouldv'e.   But I do agree that There should be no puffy ack AI only manned ack.

Do you just make **** up off the top of your head or what?  There was one Spitfire, one friendly and me.  

The Spitfire and the friendly Spit got into a fight, the enemy Spit won.  I engaged the enemy Spitfire, we got into a nice scissors then some polesmoking newb on the CV hops in a queer-ack and holds the trigger down till I blow up.  We were a good ways from the CV, in any case.

If you suck to bad/don't have the balls to get in a fighter that is fine, but you should at least have to work a teensy itsy bitsy little bit to "win", not just hold down the trigger till you get lucky.  That is horse**** newb coddling I guess HTC stuck in once they realized the general MA public couldn't find their own bellybutton with both hands and a candle.

Dipping my oar in the water again :D

Why ? do people who want to Furball do it near a Battle Group? and then complain about all the gunners trying to make thier life miserable.

Wake up folks, this is in part a WWII simulation styled game, with all the good and bad that goes with it and that includes those NASTY Chicken@@@@ Gunners and thier trusty 5 inch guns.

The radar ranging was available to the 5 inchers in WWII and so it is here, if you are getting your tail feathers singed repeatedly...KILL THE B)(*(( BATTLE GROUP...... or better yet have the range Icons be readable at 3 thousands yards instead of 6.

If the Furballers who aren't willing to adapt or who get so fixated on thier intended victim make the foolish descision to get into gunnery range of a Battle Group, then the same rules apply as if they did not check thier six THEY WILL GET SHOT DOWN.

Set up the killshooter on the ack guns? Then you might as well remove the guns from the Battle Group since when ever a JABO or bomber comes a calling there is always at least one friendly attempting to shoot down the bomber/JABO and guess what? The gunner gets booted and since a blind pilot with a bomb can now sink the Battle Group, there goes your Furball.

What next? I shudder to think.

Truly amazing bull****.  

For chrissakes, I thought this was supposed to be a FLYING game, not a ****ing AAA simulator for numb ****s to ****ty to even master the easymode planes.
 Did you have like 100 kills are something? :-/

Pretty pathetic idea, like lets make the CVs a mush target.??:rolleyes:

I think CV's are way to easy to kill as it is, and now you want to take away their primary defense?  

Or was this just meant to be a whine??

Play the game as it is and learn to enjoy it, even with it's faults.

You will have a lot more fun :aok

They've got plenty of defense.  I don't even have a problem with losers that are to scared to up in a fighter to "defend" their precious CV manning the AAA guns to actually defend their CV.  

What I do have a problem with is losers that are to scared to up a fighter lobbing 1 near miss kill shells into a FIGHT that isn't taking place anywhere near their CV.  

Improve the AI puffy ack so it no longer has a hardon for small planes actively manuevering, and instead goes after large, lumbering slow planes trying to drop small explosive objects on said CV.

Make the manned ack actually have to HIT to kill someone, take away the auto-aim,  take away icons for fighters, or all 3.  

Hell, even up the number of regular AA guns, as opposed to the 10 KM instakill guns.. then if 25 people wanted to defend their CV from suicide lancs they could... but they couldn't lob one near miss instakill shells into the fight going on 5 miles away.

I'm just tired of all this silly bull**** interfering with air to air fighting, which used to be what this game was supposed to be about.  Now I guess it is a AA/GV simulator with real live players as the targets.

Urchin, you could have extended away from the CV, but since you didn't, you just feel victim to a lucky shot.

Look at the plus side, at least it didn't crash your computer or make you pay extra.

You DON"T have to fight near CVs, but when you're near them, theres that chance. Its like going off roading in your truck. Theres a chance you can snap a spring or blow a tire, but that happens. Its BS but hey, you were able to up again to kill right?


And I'm not a foreign student, but I will be one next summer to Ireland.

It's the game, it's just a game, and a very fine one if you ask me.

Would you like to go back to the old days of lazer guided ack?  I mean you flew near a CV you died. Period.  No Lancs could have made a successful low alt attack on a CV.

You can get angry, or you can adapt, improvise, and overcome.

When I fly fighter, I usually avoid fights near CV's. When I defend a CV, I take a 5"gun.  Sorry that I don't up a fighter at the CV to get swarmed by attackers who come in with alt.  I don't up on vulched fields either.  I adapt to the game rather than demand the game adapt to me.

Ack is part of the game, I hate it as much as I do GV's.  But I don't tell people not to defend a field with Flack Panzers or M16's.  They play their way, I play mine.  I rarely attack GV's as I don't carry bombs or rockets.  I don't like to JABO, but I don't call guys who JABO a less of a player than I am.

My style is that I am a fighter pilot, I consider all other planes to be targets. I fly a 190A8. I fly high, fast, and attack only when I have the advantage. Most people would find that type of flying boring.  But it is how I like to play this game, and I couldn't care spit if others don't like it.  In fact I kind of like being the AK "Bad Boy", have been for almost 7 years now :)   I am a low-life-snake in the grass, razor-toting scumbag, and I wouldn't play any other way.  But I also couldn't care less how you play.  Don't listen for me on channel 200, I don't go there. :)

As I said, all other planes are targets :aok
