I do not think it is fair for a pilot to win a match on cumulative points and being shot down in the same match. If your shot down your dead. Being dead in my book is not winning.
If the pilot is shot down but has more cumulative points he should not given the distinction of best pilot.
The best pilot in a match should not be a dead pilot. Surviving a duel is just as important.
Remember the words of General Patton to his troops, "Your job is not to die for your county." "Your job is to make sure some other poor bastard dies for his."
I don't see how this can happen in duels, a type of game I dislike and generally avoid playing.
I understand it can happen in multiple planes engagements where you could shoot down 3 opponents and being shoot down by the fourth one. At that point who is the better: you with your 3 kills or him with just your head? 
Anyway, as pokerguy has noted, if the campaign rules will be ever, in some way, introduced, you will see that a lot of people will change his gaming attitudes. I think it already happens in squadrons engagements.
Till that moment just accept it.
Anyway it is amusing to read this discussion after the one opened 4 or 5 days ago by anastus on SOGEKING, a player that seems to have the attitude to try to survive a little bit too much.  |
