bombing GV's at Vbases
« on: December 17, 2009, 03:49:10 PM »
I have noticed the same players over and over towering out when a bomb is headed their way. when you only have 1 bomb this "gaming the game" BS is just that, flaker towers to avoid a bomb only to re-emerge in a flak a second later. why not delay the tower request til AFTER bomb hits the ground and stop the abuse.

Well then that's a bit unfair on the player driving the GV, isn't it.

Seriously, this isn't a big deal at all.  Players (including me, to an extent) who repeatedly bomb GVs are known as 'bomb****s', and with a fairly good reason (yes, I'm VERY proud to be one :P).

EDIT: Also, welcome to the forums!! :)

I have issues with GVs trying to kill my plane. Many times I'm just doing acrobatics to entertain them.

wow...I recognize a few of the "tower out" club who have replied.

 I rest my case.

although it isn't a cheat, certainly it is "gaming the game", I can't remember a single recorded instance in WW II where ANY ground vehicle rolled into a town as the bombs were falling to blink out just before the bomb hit it. I think delaying the "tower out" option still allows legit tankers the option to end flight and keep what they kill.  Stop the BS "tower out" club members from depleting all of the bombs from attackers by using a loophole in the game. I seem to remember HTC fixing the under the bridge bug that made it impossible to kill a GV backed up under a bridge while still allowing them to kill other GV's. It's not a matter of cowardice, it's a loophole that should be fixed like all the other bugs to stop people from taking advantage.

 I really am impressed with the ignorant one liners and the pictorial insults, it really adds to your rebuttals. If you aren't going to make an intelligent point, don't post, it really invalidates the reason for this forum.

this is the best military flight sim there has ever been, HTC has done a great job, with a few minor adjustments it will be even more true to it's intent.

For the kids with the "way cool" one liners, the insults, and the photo insults......go back to your console games and continue to swap cheat codes with your friends.

LOL I bet half the people who posted such replies don't even own a console, I don't. Been a PC gamer since day one.
