i use auto take-off too... what's the big deal? it's not like i *can't* take off manually...

read up on BB's thoughts about "nuisance realism."  as a "old-time AW vet" you should know who and what i'm referring to.

as for loyalty...    how can one "applaud loyalty" and refuse to recognize other "online traits" such as no honor or cowardance?  always amuses me when people say it's just a game and how can there be "honor" or "bravery?" is it the same as real life? no... but it's still there, or lacking.

loyalty to a chess piece i find even more amusing.

i'm only loyal to the action.

Watching squaddies die is one of the highlights in the game for me.  I love to see them die right before I shoot the guy that got them.  The other great thing is stealing their kills.

We are bastards for a reason.

Auto-take if good for when you're playing your guitar between fights. Less wear are your pedals too.

You can turn auto-takeoff OFF !?!?!?!?

I use auto-takeoff ... :(  

I guess your not a real genuwine virtual pilot if you use auto-takeoff. Another sleepless night worrying about what other dweebs think of me.

I can't take too much more of this peer pressure. I'm gonna lose it soon.

I use auto take off as well Slapshot. Nothings easier than hitting the runway, then instantly walking to the fridge to grab a cold one. ;)

i have never once used auto take off, although i am not against it.
could some one tell me how to engage it?:)

As for those of you wondering where the loyalty/bravery/honour comes into it i have one thing to say:

You get from life what you put in.

i find bravery, honour and loyalty in many of the patrons of AH every day.

i also find the bastards.

take the rough with the smooth and let it be.


PS: 'AH vetran' is another term for dweebs that couldnt give up  :p

I never used auto takeoff, then i realized it was dumb not to, the only difference between the 2 is that you have to hold the stick for an extra 10 seconds (least in AH1), i to use that auto takeoff time for more important things. Cant fight in combat if you gotta take a leak.:aok

simplest feature to implement in game already.

simply push stick forward, the more you push the faster you'll auto-land.

The Cactus Air Force is Celibrating its 10th Aniversary this year.  

Most of our foundings memeber are still with us.   A few have gone MIA and A few have gone on to form squads like The JG27 and the Flying Circus.  

Expect a Good showing of CAF at AH CON this year.  We will be gathering nearby for our 10th Aniversary party/BBQ in addition to the CON.  

Looking forward to seeing you all in Texas!
