I play a lot and almost never killshoot myself. Here is something to think about...If you have your tracers off and someone "zooms" in front of you dont be mad you got killshot.

I think it is great and works to make enemy fighters or you get a clear shot.

Twice in 3 years.  Stop pray and praying in a crowd, especially when the guy is already going down.  :D

Since we have changed to AH2, almost never.  The target area presented by the new FM is much smaller for both bogeys and friendlies, also the damage you can do to yourself by accidentally hitting a friendly is much less than in AH1.

All in all a marked improvement IMHO :)

Maybe a dozen times in my entire AH career, at the most.  That doesn't include intentional killshootings, of course. ;)
Three Times One Minus One.  Dayum!

Lost 4 262's in one night... 3 of them were kill shots. Didnt mind a bit really. My bads... All three Kill shots where from me clearing Bombers' 6's with that Magic tater ripping on through and hitting the friendly Buff. But I killed the fighter that was after the buff's all three times. hehe :)

Sure, I was PO'd a bit. But what can you do? Its the way the game is. I've since decided not to go after cons who are going after friendly buffs. :)

Thats the most I've ever Kill shot myself ever. Not just in one tour.

Mostly kill shot  twice a month, But most of those are guys shooting tanks with spits, while i'm dropping bombs. This is cause most know he who fires bullets gets kill over guy dropping bomb to kill. I have been damaged by guys flying in front 1once a month i would think.



 Every Bishop can tell you if i 'm going by guy on cons 6 i always say on range careful coming by. I never cut in fron if friendly catching. .



  Mwreaper and myself & some others would. Try to kill shoot guys porking bases when you use to be able to really pork a base. we would ask them to stop if they didn't we would cut in front of them or dive under thier bombs. You Would be surprised how fast porking stops :)

Dunno flying hours out of head, but about 800 sorties a month or so.

I'd say between 10-15 times spanning 3 years. Hasn't happened in a long time though.

Yeah... the old "get bombs on the town, we have troops here!"  Well, it turns out that the troops are in the middle of the town in an M3 while I'm at 6k in a formation of 17s ;)   Quick trip to the tower for that one.

Other than in bombers, maybe twice in my time in AH... but then I don't shoulder shoot like some :rolleyes:  (I know, I know, net lag, his FE, blah, blah, blah)

I think I've shot kill myself about 6~7 times since beginning AH. I've never felt KS was a problem at all.

 As for the second question, I like KS. Personally I think it was a very smart idea whoever came up with it. Forces you to watch your shots and be aware of friendlies nearby, and vice versa.

I killed myself one time.  I learned from that.

I like the killshooter because it keeps people from shooting over my shoulder and because without it, enemy players would be logging on to our side and shooting us at the base... It prevents an exploit.  I'm surprised people don't seem to realize this.

I have once or twice had someone tell me that they killed themselves because I "Dropped in on them".   Well, it wasn't intentional, I didn't know they were there... But I doubt they are being honest also, since I have never accidentally shot someone who dropped in on me... And it happens alot.  You just let go of the trigger.  

Some folks would rather risk it I guess.
