3 second wait to land after firing.

[haggerty]

I request a 3 second delay before you are able to land after firing your guns.

[Ack-Ack]

Why?

[Wiley]

  This appears to be a GV thing...  But why does firing your guns have anything to do with it?  The usual grump is give them a few seconds delay so they can't tower out under a bomb.

I think it should be 3.14159265359 seconds so there is time to eat pie.

[haggerty]

Because Air Defense GV's are able to fire at a plane until the very last second, towering just before bombs land in their turret.  For some reason proxy kills dont take into consideration of nearby aircraft when ditching a GV.  If the GV is unable to blow you up then he just towers to avoid losing the fight.

They do, but only on hostile turf. At home, you can ditch a GV all the time as long as you are undamaged.

Yeah, if that was fixed then a 3 second delay wouldnt be needed.  Far too many people fire freely into the sky and just ditch when you go to fight them.  I avoid wirbles that sit on concrete because I already know there is a 99% chance they will just land if you point your plane in their direction and reup and repeat.

If they can re-up (VH up), killing them is useless anyway.

Killing the enemy is never useless, and some vbases are indestructible, you need to kill them to get m3 in

You mean all the times you put an egg in my skillet... I could've towered out? 

I used to do this... long ago... then I figured... "What is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander."

Don't see the need for this. 

From the perspective of base capture, forcing them to "land" or killing them is basically the same result, so long as the VH are up.  All your suggestion achieves is giving you more kills.  Instead of changing the rules, become more skillful. 

[Wiley]

I've got to ask...  What skill does he need to develop to allow him to kill people who tower out under his bombs?

Probably wants me to be more skillful in running into his bullets so he gets a kill before he towers.

[atlau]

Id rather see some kind of delay instituted instead of the magic instafix gv sups. Too gamey.
