This whole thing is too funny.
I get killed by wirbs a lot, and I do my fair share dishing it back. Realistic or not, it's getting the job done that it exists in the game for. Is it too effective? Maps keep rolling along...Bases keep getting captured...
They are easily turreted, and they die to bombs even easier. What's the real reason with the discontent? What would perking it do? How much of a perk?
It functions just fine, ain't broke don't fix it - jus cause someone ran to one to have their 6 cleared and now the cleared is angry with the clearee.
Many things aren't realistic, is there any example of a ftr flying through his own base's hangar to out maneuver his enemy. I doubt it, should we not be able to fly through hangars...?
It's a game and it's more than a game, but there must be certain aspects of it to keep it balanced and have the ability to find a fair fight. Is the Star Wars like ack that bursts at you in quad groups at 8.5k realistic? It has its function of keeping you vulturing ppl though doesn't it?
I still love the thread, who is wirblegawd anyway?
