Dumb things
« on: July 19, 2004, 12:59:43 PM »
Ok here's one

Without mentioning names.
whats some of the  dumbest or most rediculous things Youve seen or heard or done in the game Related to the game.
Not channel 1 chatter or argueing.

One of mine is as recent as a week or two ago.

Was on a raid with some people and after we drop we get involved in a dogfight.
I end up with a Jug all over my six that I cant seem to shake tracers flying on either side of me as I jink and juke to narrowly avoid them. So I call for help.
A buddy of mine comes in to help. the jug is now like 3-400 yards out and still all over me.
Does my bud say break right or left, or climb?
No. He said and I quote
"Just hold it nice and steady and Ill blow him away"

 I swear if he were sitting next to me I woulda slapped him lmao

Dont think it would take ya too many guesses

I still remember hearing you laugh over the radio as I was saying to him.
"If I hold it steady he's gonna kill me"

Dunno if ya heard what I said after that as my headset was on the other side of the room.
Was similar to what I said this threads about.
Only laced with some colorful metaphores LOL

Ok here's probably MY dumbest accomplishment.
Was leading the squad on a mission and managed to fly into the side of a mountain.
My squad, Being the loyal type, promptly followed suit.:rofl

Launched a formation of 234s, At the end of the runway with 100%fuel and all the eggs I could carry, Max deflection on the stick and still couldnt get above the trees that the ground crew didnt cut out of the way.

"My drones, Being the loyal type, promptly followed suit."


Colorful words were expressed at myself for not checking the EOR prior to launch.

SYSTEM : Furball landed 2 kills in an AR234 :D

In AH 1 about a yr ago.  I flew a C47 80 miles to make a capture.  Had to clear 10 k ft to get over a hill to.  Everyone was in suspence waiting for my goon to arrive.  Dropped field supplies not troops :eek:

Lets see...

I shelled my own base for god knows how long. Didn't noticed we captured it.

Once I was chatting with a new squaddie via RW and he was on a field ready to take off for another sortie... I was getting ready to land, but was coming in a bit too fast so I decided to make a low level pass over the field inverted (you know... showing off)... well... I rolled over... (forgetting the fact I was in a bomber) and crashed right in front of him.

When GV's were first introduced (after I came back after a break) I jumped into a Panzer and took off toward an NME base. I how no idea how far the base was in relation to me... but I drove for a long time... spotted some white dots that I was sure had to be something at the base... and blasted away... again... and again. Finally... I decided to drive forward and see the destruction I had caused... only to find a flock of sheep surrounded by a bunch of craters. (and shhhh!!! don't tell... I'm a Knight)

Had a good laugh last week when we all upped a mission out of a hangar (by accident on the planner's part) and almost every single plane hit the field gun right in front of us. That was a chuckle.

Me in a FW190A5 with extra guns looking for buffs to kill. A lone cell of higher alt Lancs comes through and I turn under him. Keeping an eye on him (straight up) I begin to climb to work into a range where I can zoom up to blast him to pieces from below with my mighty MG-FF bomber buster cannons.

I must have gotten into the lower edge of his tail guns for when I got to about d600 I was showered with a hail of steel and he splattered my guts all over the sky.

Never again will I try that one.

In AW I made a guy pull the cord at about 45k:)

I think it took him 2 1/2 hours to float down, Just as he got 10 feet from the water I straffed his chute.

In AH I challenged a new guy to fight he took a spit i took a goon and I made him auger:) Proxy kill!!
