Drop a single bomb?

[PBAsydney]

In a fighter, i randomly drop a single bomb instead of both, that is very handy, since dropping 2 bombs is no use, so you can aim carefully and take a tank, since it wont die in 1 you can loop and take it from above.

Ive tried finding out how to do it, but whatever i do, it wont work, happens randomly, is it maybe a bug?

tap the "bomb drop button" as quick as possible but only do it once. Its tricky and it only works about 2/3 of the time

i think its a bug, especially on operation clean sweep it sometimes wont even let you rearm your bombers with just one fly by, like 2 or 3.

This happens whenever i just tap the button, I try not to do it though because im not that good with the bombs so i usually need 2 at least.

This was talked about a long time ago, it happens when you do a partial reload on your bombs. Say for instance you have 3 left, then if you reload it will only drop one at a time. If this happens to you, make sure that your bombs are all dropped before your next reload, then you will be able to mass bomb again.

Go reload, but get only 1 bomb. Drop that bomb, and go back and get 2 bombs. From then on, you will only drop 1 bomb at a time. That is, until you repeat the process to set it back to normal.

It can be done with bombers as well, though I find that to be more annoying than useful.

I wonder what would happen if you released your bombs while inverted?

i don't mean on the bombers, i mean fighters, i just my joy_2 button quickly, jet both bombs drop. Whenever it drops one, its much better, since you will be able to loop around and dive kill the ones who survived with another bomb.

i hate it because it always happens when i dont need it to. For example one day i was on gulf of oman and i saw the following: 2 apcs, tanks, dpvs, and a guy on the stinger and this PIECE OF **** ****ing plane only dropped one ONLY damaging them AND FFS THEY ALL SCATTERED AND I DIDNT GET ALL THE KILLS!!!!!

I've just gotten in the habit to hold the button down if I want them all. If in single-drop mode, it will keep dropping if the button is still down.
