I don't understand the first part of this. as far as the second goes, I would'nt like it because I fly with friends. If I died I wouldn't be able to play with friends for a week? there arent enough servers for this either. 3 deaths and I wouldnt be able to play online for a while...

Hi

No that was a little harsh. I would say that if you had a time out period you could adjust to however long you want it it may make people think twice about deck hugging since altitude is life and you're at a disadvantage low.

No not a week I know but something you can set as a means to bring more realism to those that desire it. Once you're down you're out!

Team A has players low to the grown and soon get swallowed up by fighters for the other side...then their air defenses are gone. Bomb away.

Air supremacy.

When you were shot down and done with you didn't come back during the same mission usually probably never happened ever - and to do it here - shoot someone down and they just spawn again in air or close by and you have to deal with them again is just silly to me.

You want to achieve air supremacy to destroy airfields, infrastructure and all the other cool things that come with dominating your opponents. Not fending off hordes of players you just downed a minute ago again coming at you interfering with all your hard work and planning

What's the point of doing recon and taking photos of bases when you count 20 bombers and 50 fighters on the ground and you plan up a strike on the enemy airfields at 3 locations and hope to destroy them and not be usable again. This happens in the real world. You take it out its broke it doesn't magically get repaired again soon and they're off to go play again.

That is where flight sims and I part ways.
