The new bomb fuzing needs to be an option.

Rofl Yappers can't even do takeoffs and especially landings right


Edit: The word "Yapper" refers to typical fighter pilot. I can only imagine how a voice echoes in their head "ME MUST SHOOT STUFF NOW ME GO NOW ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME MY STATS MY STATS ME ME ME ME ME ME ME MY STATS ME ME ME ME". They know nothing of team work and imagine air warfare is like in some µ$ Aces High or whatever shitty sim where they can shoot in ez mode 10 - 20 planes down each mission and feel they are aces.

@ElAurens
Me? condescending?
Man, you have a chip on your shoulder the size of Manhattan
I stated that it takes minimal, additional training to cope with that delay.
I really don't understand the reason for you, to get so agitated about something so minor.

Oh boy, that comment gave me the very best laughs this a week or even maybe a month

It was your comment about fighter pilots robtec.

I mostly fly bombers and fighter/bomber types these days, but I've seen this argument used a lot and never understood where it comes from.

Chip on my shoulder? Not really. I just don't understand the need for this change, especially with so many other things that I would have prioritized ahead of bomb fusing. And the fact that it really is poorly implemented, in my opinion, and in the opinion of many many folks that I know that fly the sim.

It's all a balance between enjoyment and difficulty. Make it too difficult and it becomes a job, and hence less enjoyable.

Like I said, I do this for fun. If it becomes no fun then why do it? I love ground pounding, but if it becomes a job, well, then I'll just go back to fighters.


I've also noted that high altitude bombing accuracy seems significantly degraded in 4.10. Any reason for that?

Wind now affects bombs.

@ElAurens

You didn't quote the smileys -> ironic
also it is "common knowledge" (again: ironic) that the attitude of fighter pilots is "up in the wild blue yonder"
and: "fighter pilots do movies, bomber pilots make history" and so on and on...

and its robtek, with a "k".

biggest prob imho. I wonder if fighter jocks still go for a casual bombing run on the servers, just for a bit variety.

let's hope online bombers dont become an endagered breed thanks to 4.10
