Here is a pro tip: Use them for when a light is capping your base on Alpine and save yourself a walk back to your spawn!

So if I airstrike my own base, that's a good thing? Does this not sound ridiculous to anyone else?

[BGrey]

I would say it does sound ridiculous but then I remember that the "base" is a chunk of metal with lasers around it...

I put up a great Youtube clip from Platoon when this question was asked before, but it was moderated, search for "Platoon Scene Airstrike". 38 second clip.

It could have been redacted because of language, or a racial slur that was common at the time.

I agree. It is not very immersive. It's the little things that make (or break) immersion...

I think they are pretty useless atm, high expense and not reliable damage. I would rather take cool shot for a reliable 35 alpha over and aoe that has a hefty delay.

Contract was ta keep them filthy reds from standing too close to that mcguffin factory for too long. Never said anything about keepin it in one piece.

Now seein' as the particular rationale of our arrangement was that me an' my boys pilot 100 ton automatons of destruction, where as you pilot accountin' software... I reckon you best produce payment for services rendered.

Best reply of the day. Shame some mod moved this to patch feedback, this was to discuss things in general. I really have no desire to give feedback to a group that has clearly stated (and proven with actions) my (forum posters) opinion doesn't matter. I wanted a discussion with the COMMUNITY...

Silly mods - chill it. You're worse than this patch.
