I would like to.see one sever dedicated to only bombing missions. In this server if zup could.set it up you can't drop your bomb until you've reached a point close to the base or ship this way the people that want to carry can fly with people that want to carry. Either that or the droppers should freaking learn to defend themselves with a bomb and stop jumping into a game that has been going on for an hour where everyone has been carrying and ruining it if we have been there for an hour we so not want or need someone to come and say hey you need fighter cover if we wanted fighter cover we wouldn't be in a bombing mission giving it our best shot at head.to head combat with each other

Hey Darrax,

What do you say though to dropping in order to reach a high flying target in a BTC mission. I was outnumbered and dropped to reach a high flyer.
I SHALL RETURN!







The Congress has declared war on Dogfight. Watch out... Congress is in Session!!

You're getting predictable, guys. You can do better, right?

Ok I'm fine with lowering the ceiling. Almost every dedicated carrier doesn't go sneaking and we still.have the side to fly in

I think the answer lies in ignoring physics. Remove the performance penalty for carrying & no one will have to drop. I personally don't like the idea, but I also don't like droppers. I don't necessarily buy the war argument that dictates escorts, because this is a game, not war. If it were war rules, I'd kill you on the runway at every opportunity. Heck, I'd bomb you as you slept in your barracks & not give you the chance to fly. Playability & fairness dictate otherwise in a game. Unfortunately, more skilled players are dropping ("MORAFs" even...why does a MORAF need cheap kills?) & you don't stand a chance if you keep your bomb.

I consider this game a team game.....the strategy of the team some fighters some bombers all working together for the common goal to win the game.....I dont "drop" except to drop a bomb on a hangar or carrier in those missions cause I'm a better bomber....but I see the value in teamwork and having fighters and bombers working together is perfect....I dislike the idea of not being able to drop bomb....

I'm all for strategy.....except for spawnkilling

It seems everyone wants to take the strategy out of the game...Zuperman doesnt like having strategy minimized I know that for sure.
