I may be speaking out of place here, but when a plane is 100 feet off the runway and you shoot him out of the air, how does he get a ditch? Does this mean that some actually believe that a pilot would live through this? If so, why does a player die when he falls off a CV at 1/10th the speed, and into water no less.
What is the use of shooting a plane down if you dont get credit for shooting it down? It probably wouldn't bother me if it was a rare occurance, but it's ridiculously constsnt and totally unrealistic, not to mention that one of the main objectives of the game is to shoot them down. And to make matters worse bailing out of an untouched airplane will give the closest opponent the kill even if he never saw you, but shooting them down often gets you nothing. Makes sense, ha! I guess that, according to the game, if an allied pilot blew a plane out of the air and it was witnessed and confirmed, he sometimes got no kill credit for it. Are y'all sure about that?
To win a dogfight, allbeit at low speeds, and to get nothing for it is frustrating to say the least.
