new type of kill category
« on: March 22, 2009, 10:28:32 AM »
camp kills .. any kill say within 3000 yards of a spawn your defending would be a considered a camp kill.  you get credit for the kill but no perk points would be awarded. and wouldnt way in on any stats you have. air or ground.

No offense but this problem is easily avoided by not spawning at a camped base. He should only get you once at best if your smart about it.

Maybe you should play the game for more than 2 months before continuously spamming the forums with your absurd wishes.  Try going outside and playing with the other kids.

your avatar says enough for you  :lol



Now, back on topic, ehh... No. You could just as easily get a P-47, load it up with bombs, and kill the spawn camper.

That would be the "attack " mode yes?

I think attack mode should be for "ground attack" only.

You don't get kills for shooting anything down in 'bomber" mode.

Why do guys get kills for shooting down planes in attack mode?

I personally use fighter for air to air and attack for attacking ground targets.

I think that might also stop the 3 sortie 18:1 kd ratio you see alot of.

Guys will fly a couple sorties in "fighter" mode and then the rest of the tour in "attack" mode to protect their precious fighter score.

Keep attack scores for ground attack only.

Air to air kills will not be added to your score, just like bomber mode.

I guess I just may have a different perception of what "attack" mode means.

It seems good but it does have some quirks. I know a lot of people that go over drop the VH then fly CAP...it's what most people do, either or kill GVs then CAP. Either way they would lose kills and perks with the idea you have.

No...you get guys that will fly 3 sorties in a target rich environment, usually picking, and they'll get 6-8 kills per sortie then land, and never touch fighter mode again.

No.

I'm sayin some (not all) guys will fly literally a "couple" sorties in fighter mode and get get a fantastic KD, Kph, Kps score and Stop flying in fighter mode the rest of the tour.

To protect that fighter score, they will fly the rest of the tour in "attack" mode.

They will shoot down mostly planes and very few if any ground targets.

If you're gonna shoot down planes, it should be in fighter mode.

Its that way with bombers for example, you only get credit for hitting  ground targets.

There are guys who can take down a formation of bombers in 1 or 2 passes,yet if you're defending said formation and you get lucky enough to shoot one of these guys down you will receive no credit for those kills. Ground only.

Again its just my interpretation of the word "attack" as it is proposed in this game to mean "ground attack", otherwise it just might as well be in fighter mode.

Imho the attack mode is being misused.

Just like in the bombers, if you happen to get a ground kill, yaay! If you happen to shoot down a plane? Tough luck, it doesn't count.

If you should choose to check out the stats, I think you will find quite a few guys with a few "fighter sorties and with correspondingly low scores and their "attack" scores will show 150 air kills and 3 ground kills.

I don't think the "attack" mode is being use as its description might imply.

I don't think I can make it any clearer than that.


No big deal, just sayin.
