LMAO By all i meant All countries not all pilots each and every one of them :D 

Also IRL i would not do it as for almost every war we have had Except ww2 i would rather spend 10 years in jail even hard labour than kill people i don't know and only know them by what my government has told me.

When you say that all "countries" did it, you mean that there were rules of engagement issued by military or political leaders that ordered or encouraged killing bailed out enemy pilots? That is simply not true. It has been pointed out countless times that in western countries it was actually the other way around. Japanese "bushido" was different, though.

If you feel personally insulted by being killed in your chute or killed at all in the game.

 

There is medication and shock therapy for mental disorders like that

 

 

I know of people wanting to misunderstand a post, and you are apparently one of them, I simply do not got there myself. Read my post again, it is not that bad English

Another question for those who say they would not chutekill: If you were in a tank, and you just destroyed the other guy's tank, but he managed to get out and was running to another tank he could get in and come after you with, would you pump a shell right into him while he was running or would you wait until he was in the tank?

 

I'm not saying I have the right answers to any of this. I'm merely investigating the question.

But it is so easy. THIS IS NOT REALITY. Shooting someone on a chute is just slapping him in the face without him being able to do anything against it. And he will come back whether you shoot him or not. So why would anybody do that? I just don't get it...

What difference does it make in MP if you do or do not kill the guy in his chute? Is there a loss of points or ability to fly again?

There is no penalty

it only insults the person you kill
and only people who care much about that are those below canada and above mexico
they have a deep need for revenge and when they can't get it ...
they cry.

Excuse me, I meant to the person who got shot in the chute. Does he lose points or have to wait longer to rejoin or anything like that?

It does not make any difference to anybody, stats or points wise.

Some think they should do it to prevent the people hanging on the chute from continuing to talk to their folks on teamspeak, thats the only reason in terms of gameplay I am aware of.

Ahhh, okay. Thank you for the info.

 

The way I thought it was mentioned before, the person in the chute suffered an additional in-game consequence of some sort if "chute shot". If that is not the case, Let 'em float, or not. No diff.

 

Certainly not anything for anyone to get worked up about. :popcorm:

It doesn't matter, if in real life or in simulated combat - for me it's a "no go"! It's a question about fairness and fair play...

 

Just to think about it - even in a combat flight simulator - is absolutely primitive and I guess those considering this as "OK"

should better play COD, DOOM or whatever just to shoot something...

"Primitive"? Indeed.

 

One might wonder as to the primitive mindset of anyone wishing to play make believe war; shooting virtual bullets into virtual people, dropping virtual bombs on virtual things, and generally acting in such a way as to cause maximum virtual destruction as a form of entertainment with real hardware and real software bought with real dollars.

 

Your line in the sand is... interesting.

There are people who think engaging in virtual violence, or re-enacting conflicts that killed millions of people, is an odd and unenlightened form of entertainment. They might wonder why "we" don't just take a walk in the woods, or play the piano, or read a book.

Iaint getting worked up on chute killing, it happened to me on only one occation, and that was on a server there is no difference wether you live or die. What I get worked up over is people in here sayng I am worked up because of chutekilling. My point of view is based on that person doing it, I say f**k him, do not like him , that is all

The developer have work on the code and the animation, I think it would be disrespectful not to look at and appreciate the beautiful work and the art behind it. This is a game

So here is my aircraft after being shot down. What do you think about someone doing strafing runs on the aircraft just to kill the crew onboard because that's exactly what happened.

 

Just curious what you guys think?  Personally I think it sucks just like chute killing.

I would absolutely not strafe your plane.

 

I might however dump two 500 kg bombs on it and, as King Henry said, "break it all to pieces".

 

War is all hell. ;)

Shooting up someone in a chute or strafing (or bombing) the hell out of a downed aircraft has the equivalency of tea bagging your opponent, just like the sort of behaviour you get in any number of FPS.

I would make you a cup of tea, but I would not tea bag you.

 

As for your downed He-111...

 

What is it then to me, if impious War,

Arrayed in flames like to the prince of fiends,

Do with his smirch’d complexion all fell feats

Enlink’d to waste and desolation?

 

:bye:

Well this is probably the reason I lost interest in combat flight sims in general. The integrity and fair play attitude is a gonner. Old days in IL 2 there where a great atmosphere with strict rules. There where more than enough people flying, so you could afford having rules and ban people. Now public servers are like comments  on a news feed , a few intolerable people that have no guts to stand up for themselves in other places than in inter web, sadly they take a lot of space and are very visible .

I am not talking about BOS in special, this attitude you find in all public servers in all games

Only virtual manhood to be found here, my brother.

Actually, WoL is really good about banning people that act poorly

I don't get why though. In my experience, gunners are far more dangerous on crash landed planes. Plane is stationary, no engine sound to mask approaching fighters, no need for the player to pay attention to anything else than manning a gun, etc.

Posted

Well I find shooting down 109 in the gunner position on a PE 2 remarkable easy, bonus is when you got sniper gunner in the chat afterward. 

I have to admit, in BOS this is really easy, COD a bit more difficult since the guns are less effective there. 

You are not smart if you strafe a downed aircraft in the harms way of the gunners anyway

Pure tactical victories can not be guaranteed... In war, participants are going to hurt and kill one another, thus equivalent retaliation is going to happen. If sides respect some rules for mutual benefit, it is great news! If not, like in a total warfare, then they really have to kill their enemies, including parachuting pilots, given every opportunity.

I suppose. I guess it would be the same kind you get playing Super Mario Brothers or Donkey Kong.

Okay, but this is a game, not a war.

The same principles apply.

 

We mutually agree to servers' rules and the victory conditions don't include strafing bailed pilots. We have in the game sort of war convention, effectively.

War the playground for psychopaths. Before I shoot someone in the parachute, i rather would shoot myself. Even if i saw him killing someone of my mates in the chute.

I am a human being not a war criminal.

But guess the definition of psychopath(in a philosophic way) includes "doing" everything for the win

 

No - a psychopath is someone who just doesn't feel emotions or empathy. It does not mean a psychopath must have murdering urges.

 

If your survival, or your close ones, would depend on the victory, then you would kill without much remorse, too. Or would you rather watch your close ones being raped, or murdered?

Posted

But what does any of that have to do with playing a video game? It's just some pixel animations on a screen.

 

I like to load up a quick mission with 8 Ju52s full of paratroopers then shoot them all down. You get a whole new game afterward of weaving through this sky full of parachutes trying to shoot down as many as you can before they land.

Posted

The geneva convention allows you to shoot armed paratroopers whilst in their parachutes... they are going to try and kill you when they are on the ground...
