i thought when i first started playing ah that my experiance level and overall fighting ability would continue to rise, and for the first couple months it seemed to do that, but then i started going through dry spells, where i cant get a kill to save my life.

then ill have a good week, but then go back to haveing a horible time getting kills.

mabey i need to just get into the training arena and get back to basics.

also im haveing a really bad time with my stick, ever since i bought it!

really sucks when i have to recalibrate every 2 minutes

i dont know?

mabey the players im coming up against are getting better or im just getting worse, if there is such a thing as getting worse?

Stale maybe. Worst no. Bad decisions maybe. Pressing to hard maybe.

Stick issues,,Saitek X45. No trouble with it at all.

Can't help you with your stick. As for hitting a plateau, I think we all do. Ever so often I die alot more than usual, can't hit anything, etc... When that happens I usually fly a different plane for awhile or take a few days off. Good luck.

Take a friend and go into the DA for a few fights to keep yourself sharp.

what you all have against logitec sticks?? i learned on one, and if they made a HOTAS i'd buy it in a second. comfortable, and smooth action just the right resistance for me personally.
I don't know what to put here yet.

Who doesn`t like to get their hands on a HOTAS? :D
  Hands On Throttle And Stick. Check Saitek, CH, Thrustmaster, etc.

Yet one more example of the "superior quality" of Logitech. Logitech makes a poor product. By a cheap Saitek. You'll be glad you did.
