So I tried to do bombing in sim for points in the winter grindfest slog. my air is mostly Britain (I have everything but the aardvark and new F/A-18s). I don’t have a good rocket spammer so I take my buccaneers out for heavy bombing.
I have to watch 2 hours of random youtube tutorials on even setting up the damn CCRP but not a single one lines up with the HUD/Visuals that the buccaneer has. I grasp selecting a target (Preferring to middle-mouse something on the map) and setting my sights to bomb mode (auto). People talk about trying to stay level but the buccaneer uses a circular crosshair that has nothing to do with being level to the target and also marks the target with a dot but no one else does this in any tutorial so idk why it does this as it has no bearing on if I’m aiming correctly. The crosshair even slowly disappears when you get close to the target and I thought maybe this was it telling me I’m getting into the right position to bomb but nope it has no bearing on if I’m in the right spot to bomb or not, idk why it does that at all.
In the end I’ve spent hours doing nothing. Most of the time it’s not clear when my bombs have permission to drop, I barely get a single point of score. One match I got 5.5 tons of registered base damage from bombs and still only 700 mission score. What am I doing wrong?
