Suicidal pilots; should they be in Planetside 2?

[Whoknowswhat1]

No one has posted this yet, so i guess i will...

In recent weeks (and really forever) players have been using vehicles from the air support certification (galaxy, loadstar, liberator, and even a GGS or two) to suicide into a group of people in order to kill them. this can be both very effective and annoying when trying to assault a base. With the announcement of the Gal a few months back, i began to wonder wether or not they would add this tactic in PS2... it does seem fitting that a ship/ vehicles the size of the gal make a huge explosion, but i would like the opinion of the community. Should this be in Planetside 2?

I don't see why not.

This.

If someone finds crashing a lodestar into a base fun and/or rewarding, then let them.

Ahhh, remember the days of the Ant Bombs? Good times.

I figure if someone wants to kamikaze, then they should be allowed to. One of my beefs is that the aircraft timers are too short, and I spend most of my game time in a Reaver. (But thats another conversation I guess) Being able to spam 1 kamikaze attack after another is not something I think anyone wants.

I sure love them and they should be in the game. Recently i had a 13 kill Gal Bomb. The feeling I got was sure enjoyment. Alot of people gave me tells after that and stated it was a broken mechanic and I am abusing it.

I recorded this one awhile ago lol

I think my 8 kill one with a mosquito at an AMS beats all those considering the explosion radius is smaller .

I would never get the kills for those things... always said they team killed each other.

You know what's even better? Logging into my VS or NC alt and volunteering my services as a Galaxy pilot and then crashing the whole fucking thing in the ocean. And before I splashdown, saying "I'm actually a Terran terrorist."

It's a valid tactic, but one that should cause a significant drain on resources. You don't see American Soldiers going into a fight with a C-130 and fly it into a hillside in Afghanistan to take out a bunker of snipers.
