Re: bombing with the jet

Usually if u press your defult once only one bomb will drop, sometimes it doesnt. I just click twice really fast when bombing to make sure both are released. Unless I'm in an F-15 or Su-34, in which case all 5 will drop just by pressing it once. Its odd really that sometimes one and two will drop. To be on the safe just click twice really fast.

It has to do with how many bombs you reload.

When you fly over the airstrip and reload, sometimes you reload all but one bomb. Then when you bomb all but the empty one will drop. And when you go to reload drops one bomb instead of all.

To fix, drop all your bombs and fly slowly over the airstrip until all the bombs are reloaded.

Re: bombing with the jet

There is a MUCH MUCH better way to do this!!

Drop bombs, then switch to missles to interrupt it, so you only drop one. Then go back, and drop the other one. Then go an rearm for two bombs. They will then come out one at a time.

It means you have to go back and rearm, then go and reengage a target repeatedly. Thats consumes a lot of time!

But then don't forget, 1 bomb will drop completely different from 2 bombs.

no need for a test. He is dead on, that's exactly why it happens.

Re: bombing with the jet

Since the search function apparently doesn't work... here's how you fix the one bomb drop. Drop the one bomb, don't drop the other four. Reload back to five and the next time you drop, you will drop all five. The same process works for fighters if you don't want to drop one bomb.

As some have mentioned this happens when you press the button quickly and only the first drops (less frequent) or when you are playing the maps where you have to fly slow in order to get a full reload. If you fly normal speed, it will only load 4 bombs (noobs may not notice until the 1 bomb drop starts happening). Main thing, keep your eye on your bomb count. If you don't fully reload, make another pass over the runway and load up.
