Guess you never played a max with AA then lol.
PLay Max most of all, you can take a good 60% off if you see him at distance, but you cant shoot him down with the single starter burster. Fighters you can just about do it but of course they can manoeuvre better. Downloading it now, lets see.
The problem is the number of AA units on the field, it may be frustrating when its just you but if you could solo bombers then when there were 5 or 10 AA units out of the potentially hundreds of players around you any combat area would become a complete no fly zone. Have you tried flying a bomber? I assure you when one or 2 AA maxes open up on you it doesn't feel very unfair you get absolutely torn to pieces.

As far as I remember AMD switched to quaterly updates for anything older than the 5000 series.
I know, but still. Vista is pap!
Anyway as for your 'Outfit' remark. Most, if not all outfits have their own VOIP (Mumble/TS3).
This game is so much more fun when you're in a group and on comms.
Vista was pretty dire when it release in 2006 with poor driver support. Now it is a perfectly usable OS - no need for the 'HERP DERP VISTA IS BAD' nowadays I guess. However, XP needs to be killed with fire and nuked from orbit for good measure.
But thats the thing, you shouldnt be flying low enough for AA to be an issue otherwise those things are overpowered. Still im far more worried about the warping at the moment, its ridiculous.
Bombers cant bomb from above a certain height. Its intentional otherwise they would float around above the AA ceiling raining death down and youd get even more frustrated.
Not played yet, but isn't that where fighters would come in handy?
I suppose theyre thinking of the 'everyone must be able to play everything' scenario, but youre right, having effective low level AA would surely force the bombers higher and have them start organising as groups to protect themselves from fighters, who would then start organising as groups... but meh.
Its organised chaos at the moment, and whilst thats fun i dont see them wanting to change that.
The game is absolutely astounding when you get outfit ops that do things like that but the unfortunate reality is that as you say the game is often just organised chaos and unless vehicles have a degree of flexibility people just wont use them.
Like and like
They don't come up till 2pm
