I have seen italian Tornado IDS 1995 , using MK 83 AIR x12 to attack / damage enemy air field module, he had 3000 point on 1 attack trip, how its posible ?
Why can this tornado get up to 3000 points using only MK83 AIR bomb / retarded Bomb. Can I also get a lot of points if I use mk83 on the A7E jet thailand / japan tech tree ?
How is it possible? I know that a lot of napalm (something more than 100k damage points and it gives something around 1300-1600 points?) can take out a module in 1 run, but bombs? With 56k damage points?
That does seem very high. Especially given the diminshing returns mechanic.
My only thought is he killed someone on the runway.
Killing on the runway does not give much points. Noticed during the events.
He doesnt kill anybody on the trip, i will show the replay video
Figured it would give the same as killing anyone in the air. Around 600 score
I don’t know if things were changed, I didn’t go to af bomb for events anymore because it’s depressing, but the few times I did I got almost no points for killing airplanes rolling on the runway, more proficient destroying air defense
For sure for af bombing napalm is way better, more damage less trips to destroy a module
IIRC they made killing players on the runway zero points…
Doesn’t stop people but it helps.
I just did a test in my TU-4 which can do 434k damage in one run and full load on an airfield garnered 1888 points… so more than 3000 should be possible I guess… I should have bombed more areas but I was already bored getting there :p
That’s 12 x 272 kg of TNT, and he get from 16,2 to 31,6 tons TNT. Something is wrong 🤔
yeah something is wrong
Mmh guess it’s time put my IDS out of the dust. LOL
I don’t have the Italian Tornado IDS yet, but I have the German Tornado IDS ASSTA 1.
Here is my score with 12x 1000 Lb Mk83 retarded bombs.
That looks to be what I’d expect and line-ups ish with what I found when testing diminishing returns.
This is for ARB not ASB, but shows the quite low rewards for carrying more bombs
Reward for 1x Base kill in ARB
| Bombs | RP | SL | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 4410 | 10540 | 536 |
| 6 | 3901 | 9320 | 473 |
| 7 | 3533 | 8441 | 428 |
| 8 | 3257 | 7781 | 396 |
| 9 | 3045 | 7268 | 369 |
| 10 | 2872 | 6861 | 348 |
| 11 | 2733 | 6523 | 331 |
| 12 | 2616 | 6244 | 317 |
It’s the same as how the reward for destroying a base decreases with higher BR. You can see the multipliers for your current bomb load in the hangar, but the BR- or tier-based multipliers are hidden somewhere in the game’s code
Yeah, gaijins hatred for base bombers is just infuriating
ah i see, i think the italian tornado ids (1995) have some kind of bug or something
Did he do his previous suicide bomb run before he got 3k points with just 1 bomb?
Since there is a known bug which some of the suicide farmers abuse during events for fast score (i’ve seen it done only with napalm though).
EDIT: also you do get score for killing aircraft who are on the runway IF they have taken off earlier (so usually people who have returned for reload/refuell). People who have just spawned / have not yet taken off do not give you score when killed.
I watched the whole replay with that guy. He only did suicide bombing. No planes killed.
He did it 3 times, every time he got more than 3000 points.
I don’t have the Italian Tornado to test it od it’s a bug. But I used German Tornado with identical bombs and you can see my score above.
