Stop Skillplanes Kamikaze

Fair point.

Mind you, in order to make the game more authentic, the skillzplanes should really also attack their own side! ...from the diaries of a young British infantry officer, Peter White, "With the Jocks" (page 148):

...On the morning of 30 January [1945], a visit was paid by a car load of VIPs to look at the front - the General Officer Commanding ('GOC'), Commander of the Royal Artillery, Brigadier, Commanding Officer, and the GOC's Aide de Camp. This coincided with a high-flying formation of American bombers, whose identity was just being discussed by these important people, when the planes released several bomb-loads right around them and slap though the Company and Battalion area, in a volcano sustained ripple of blasting explosions. One 500-pounder recorded a direct hit, but fortunately without casualties, on one of my section billets, making an enormous crater. This accident resulted in a further drop in our cow's milk supply, and we heard, profuse apologies from the air formation concerned to the 'brass hats', though no apology reached to our level...

Replace damage from plane crash with stun effect for both vehicle crew and infantry?

2k+ hours and I've never lost a full squad or vehicle to plane crash

If they let you guys balance the game, the game would became a C&C or an AoE. Then why there is a CoH game? RNG is a big part of this game and it s why I love the game. It is ok to discuss this kind of things but I m bored to see always an e-sports hashtag besides an RNG issue.

It might be possible to code plane crashes so that once the plane is "destroyed" by a flak hit it keeps flying until out of bounds then crashes. That way crashes still exist but won't wreck your entire match because of bad RNG.

God....reading this thread just makes me want to delete my profile on .org.

And to those people who EVER mention "realism" in CoH2, YOU ARE PLAYING THE WRONG GAME.

That was a quick invis
Brace yourselves, flamewars are coming.

Anyone can blob, it's a matter of how easy and effective is to use it.
