What bugs me the most about auto puffy is the fact that the microsecond you pass above 3000, you get hit by ack.  Amazing psychic skill of the gunners to know when and where you'll pass above that threshold.

discussed untill disgusted.  Auto ack is the most unrealistic part of this game.  It shoots through mountains and is totaly based on the size of the target.  

Fighters get hit more because the "box" is focused on a small taget.

Bombers that make up 4 times the size of a fighter rarely get a scratch and there is three "most of the time"

The auto ack can hit a fighter diving at 450 MPH but cant hit a level 280 mph foot ball field flying in a staight line.

They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

Oh yeah, and a fighter maneuvering miles and miles away is still likely to get hit, I'd like to see a change in how that is done.

For my whine ....   I like a good Pinot Noir -- preferably from Oregon.  All the best Pinots come from Oregon.     :D

hmm....... you must not be from around the Foot Hills of NC or know of Boone or North Wilkesboro and other places in NC.... those up there near the Tennessee River claim theirs is the best too.... comes close to even at times, but most times is just a close second <grin>

If we tweak the ack settings, MANaWAR won't get a kill ever again.

Nerfed or not, I wanna be shot down by a real person, not a random number generator that assesses I'm 10 miles away cruising at 15K in my P51--- first barrage of puff ack and I'm chillin in the tower.

<S> Computer, Nice shot!

it is nerfed but there are times when puffy is just beyond annoying... let the poofs kill bombers more often and harder for fighters OR in my opinion ill take full realism with it :ahand
