I tried that once and it told me i had collided with the CV

 

hm I haven't tried it in a while now - maybe it doesn't work anymore, or it's a more complicated matter

kids don't try this at home!

 

if you fly just under the CV deck from behind, you will ditch inside, counts as a properly landed.

 

this one I know of too, but didn't want people flying into CV's and then coming to me saying: "You fucker you said it works and I lost my streak! I'll kill you!" etc.

 

We say this already

 

Just one important detail:

Landing with all engines killed should be counted as ditch.

If plane has at least one engine in good contition, it should be count al proper landing (its for multiple engine planes).
Sure if p38 will land proper with 1 engine killed by some MGFF, dont want host to count him ditch, right ?
Of course for normal ppl it is clear, but, sad to say, delvelopers like to surprise..

 

So mono-engine planes, if ever get a single shot in oil will always ditch.
If i were in such situation i'd bail, not risking to land and be vulched. With your new rule we'll see a lot of chutes making a beautiful sky...

 

I don't understand where's the problem
Host knows if the landed plane had wheels up or down anyway. No need to count killed engines, check if they were killed outright or by leaking out all oil or anything else...

 

i think, it is not possible to discuss with pietas about what is easier to program, until we have evidences. i'm not sure, if i will ever get in good constant contact with a developer. maybe sonar will translate this wish sometimes in the language of the programmer by himself.

 

Speaking of ditching, I would be pleased if the devs would just lower the speed at which a 109 (and all other planes which share that phenomenal ability) can safely ditch! NO god damn plane should ever be able to ditch at 290 mph and certainly not with such ease.

 

no plane does anything with ease until the pilot has had a lot of training.
guys who can high speed ditch 109s have practiced a lot.
I've flown a lot of RPS gold & cant do it.

"NO god damn plane should ever be able to ditch at 290 mph and certainly not with such ease", said the Red Ant as his face turned red "because I am a score whore."

 

Nonsense, remember that thread I made a while back about the ditch speed problem? I could do it easily and I'm not at all an experienced 109 jock.
I mean what skill does it take to gently point your nose toward the ground, watch your vertical velocity indictor so you don't exceed 500 fpm and then just touch the ground? Exactly, none.

 

A score whore? The amount of bullshit leaving your mouth on an average day would suffice to fertilize 80 acres of farmland.

 

LMAO...Now thats funny...

 

That's a fairly conservative estimate there imo

 

Yes, right, if developers will really take care belly landing, they will handle this.
Very good idea, only a bit more complicated, just a bit.

1. Need to check gear damage first.
2. Need to check gear status next.
3. Probably need co count them*.

*What about 1 wheel missing? Tail wheel, or left/right. Ditch?

point : I'm on this too , engine or gear, let developers to decide.

 

I have accidentally ditched at very high speed. Have done it more than twice and prolly less than 100 times. Every time I do it, I am happy.
I don't try and do high speed ditches though.
If I gotta go down there without gear, I usually reduce throttle and yaw like crazy and oscillate wildly hoping to slow down.
And too, I usually shoot at ditchers if they is away from a field. OOPSS:
Well, sorry, I don't usually shoot at them, I always do.
And get cussed at.
I don't cuss people who shoot me ditching. Although I may occasionally let them have both biles barrels, which is not nessesarily cussin, but it is pretty tough to read it. hehe.
Unfortunately, a bullet written by biles into the text buffer thingie does no harm to an airframe and who cares anyway. And most of the players in the MA don't read nor write english anyway. Those that do do not understand the evolved lingo come outta biles.

Any bohunks out there figured out what is meant by 'toilet drinking' yet? For example.

 

You think they listen?

 

New rules here, Jacobe
Some admins talking to us with human language.
Some of them even doing something.

There is a hope
There is a light in tunnel

God, save the admins

 

I'm sure if they will take care, they will handle this easy.
Technically its a piece of cake.
No need to describe hard fm or dm alghoritms
But they should want this modification first.
Relax, i will not cry if they will do nothing with belly landings
But i hope they will change shilkas to small aa-vehicles witch machineguns.
Otherwise there will be still sometimes more ppl on the ground than in air.
Mb webmaster should made another stat, which counts flight time and ground time average at MA
Damn, this game going to be Panzer Commander some
