DOOOOOO ITTTTTT HTC!!!!

last time I was in a car crash I believe both parties had a large bill to pay

So, a HO in a car and he evades and you hit a telephone pole.... Who pays?

I'm asking you too:



You are the P-47. Should you die from this collision?

I think that when two planes collide and only one registers a collision both planes should still receive damage.
Its only fair since that if two planes to collide they should both receive damage from the collision.
IMHO you shouldn't be able to collide with out both planes receiving some sort of damage.

I've been on both sides of it. I've collided and gone down without a wing while the other plane flies away
with no damage at all.  I've also collided and watch the other guy go down while i went on with out damage.

So my wish is that if you collide but the other guy doesn't register a collision that he still comes away damaged
since the planes obviously had to make contact for a collision to register.
Yeah, that's stupid the way it's set up. I go down and the other person doesn't even though we went RIGHT THROUGH EACH OTHER! I blow up or get something knocked off and he's flying perfectly normal like nothing happened to him.  :huh

he pays, he hit the telephone pole

I'm asking you too:

Unfortunately yes, it may be unfair but this is how it was in the war and still is the same last time I checked in real life
when a Japanesse kamikaze'd a ship did the ship sail off with no damage and no crew killed?

and also just to clarify, I don't ram people intentionally

This isn't war or real life.  It is in fact a game and games are meant to be fair much unlike real life war. So you can either adjust your flying and lower your risk of collision or continue whining about the model... cuz it isn't going to change. :P :lol

Ohh and try and kamikaze into a ship in game... lemme know how that works out for you as well. :lol

To be clear, your position is that you should die to people who intentionally ram you without you having any way to avoid it.  You do understand what you are suggesting, yes?

You are suggesting that it should be a valid tactic to ram somebody as it took them 10 minutes to reach your base and only took you 1 minute to reach them and you can't even dodge their ram attempts.
