The state of bomber gameplay

The bomb thing was implemented over 7 years ago…
If the rework is related to damage models, that requires a new modeling system be developed.
Arguments, decisions, standards set, then actioned on, and after it starts they have to manually produce hundreds of damage models based on the new standard set.
Setting that standard will be the most difficult part.

Patience is needed.
Until they finish their work, push your BR ideas in the BR change announcement topics, as well as the primary balance topic.

they desperately need a structural/survival buff or something.
They still are effective though.

sorry but this can’t be true - I never had dropped bombs exploding or bombers simply pop up by a few gun hits prev. one year ago - I am sure there was a devblog about rewards for “ammo hitted” in the last 6 months
removing this stupid mechanic would be a simple first step in making bomber gameplay a little better

Mabe these guys?

Rewards yes, but the feature has been a thing for well over 7 years.
& no, there’s no reason to remove it.

Proof?

Announcements pages.
Bomber PVE game mode [still only announcements].
Nuclear Thunder.
Infantry.
Advance.

& the announcement for bomber damage model rework has been repeated a few times by CMs + announcements.
A reminder that the only way to make damage models actually better is to compartmentalize skin & spar sections of aircraft so damage doesn’t destroy entire sections when it’s only harming 10 - 100cm of area, and that’ll take a new DM standard.

B57s and and other 8.3 bombers would like to chime in on mentioning those fucking f84 users

Alvis, I honestly can not consider that anything close to a legit citation. That is straight up hand waving.

it’d be sick if air players weren’t miserable people and at least let bombers get the pity points during this event but you people are SO DESPERATE for a kill that waiting a little bit is just unacceptable
