this is for you guys to tell us all how you enjoy AH the most.

are you a mad for it furballer?

are you a p-51 dive n' extend, ultimate realism type?

are you an avid bomber?

are you a GV nut?

do you care if you die?

does score matter to you?

nobody will be flamed (current audience pending)

just let us know how AH makes you feel and why it is you spend hour after hour of your life flying the virtual game of games.

My way.

I love furballs like nothing else. I live for the 'catagory 5' fights.

i very much enjoy being outnumbered and low and slow.

i love landing kills, and i love being shot down by superior skills.

I love camping in a pnsr on the edge of an enemy runway

I just love serving up death, and gulping down punishment on a monumental plate.

with gravy and trimmings.

its your money and your time, how do you play?

all

I like a bit of everything, especially defending a base vs. CV aircraft.

I'm no score potato, but i like to keep a relatively low score for use on CV's if necessary.

The quicker paced the action the better as far as i'm concerned.

I dont mind dying, its how i die that bothers me. BS puffy ack, collisions that kill me and not them etc.

Hmm, I've never seen anyone stick stir a GV...

Anyhow, heres my deal

My main skill is bombing I don't like the new calibration because now anyone can be good at it... It used to be a skill. I'm a wicked gunner too.

I like to furball but I really prefer to have at least one squadmate there to give and get six calls and such.

I tend to mostly keep high E and handle the plane as would be done in real life (yup, I'm a runner) but I don't usually use 51s or La7s, so its still work.

Depending on the day, I do just about everything. I can be the most evil vulching bastard or the most honorable dogfighter. It depends on my mood and to a lesser degree my blood alcohol level. And no matter who doesn't like it, vulching (more to the point, strafing aircraft) was a common and encouraged practice... There are miles of gun camera video to prove it.

I like flying La7s,

blowing up toolsheds to get my attack rank up,

divebombing in buffs and vulching the field afterwards,

spawncamping,

playing alt monkey and running away if someone is higher,

and killing my 2nd account: righty2.

i think i love you righty!!

honesty to yourself is what earns my respect.

not that anyone should ever crave my respect.

LtPillur · « **Reply #7 on:** November 14, 2004, 01:21:15 PM »

I like to attack. Then see how many seconds I stay alive. My record is ten! I ain't a real good shooter.
I like GV's but find spawn camping is about as much fun as fishing in a stocked pound. Yeah I get my fish but what's the point.
I like high altitude bombing. 20K or so. I can put it on autoclimb, go eat, do the dishes, then come back in time to line up, sight and drop. Then I can tell my wife "no I wasn't on the sim ALL night!"
I get iinto furballs with the intention of learning, for i know I will surely die quickly.
Most importantly I have fun. If it isn't I log off and do something else.
Peace

i fly what i feel like flying on the day and 1 day il fly a hog then the next il fly a hurr-1
as long as the fighter can fight il enjoy flying it thats why i hate the 190D-9 because it cant fight heck the ME262 is a better turner

some times il jump into a GV
i only like flying a heavy bomber if im with a group of bombers thats great fun

i enjoy hunting bombers alot
i enjoy hunting Gv's from the air alot

most of the time i ether E fight or Turn fight it depends on the plane im flying

i do care if i die but not because of Score i just hate to die and hate that awful sound when you hit the ground

im awful at shooting in fighters i get almost all my kills at 200 or less

400 and farther i almost never even hit them

EN4CER · « **Reply #9 on:** November 14, 2004, 05:08:20 PM »

My favorite plane is the 190 (Any Type). I prefer to pick off furball stragglers with it or jump un escorted bombers. If I'm forced to defend a base I will fly an LA-7. You can't beat LA-7 for Base Defense - Its got the ability to Turn & Burn and Boom & Zoom - Best of Both Worlds almost.

My current choice of bombers is B17s / B25s. A bomber sortie is boring without a fighter or two to shoot at.

GVs - although I enjoy a good camp I actually like to hit and fade with them. I'll get a field kill and move so that hopefully the same person will come back looking for me in the previous spot.

I prefer to be offensive but when necessary I will defend. Don't mind handling supply chores when its my turn either.

I fly goon quite a bit and will often auger a fighter or bomber if I hear that some of our guys need vehicle supplies.

I get a really twisted joy out of killing vulchers. I will continuously take off from a heavily capped field and will still consider it a victory even if I am shot down twenty times before I get one of them. Should I know that the buzzard took a half dozen of my pelts down with him the taste is even sweeter.

I will build up just enough perks to loose them trying to fly a ME262 inverted through a hanger.

I have spent entire evenings attempting to get kills in Kates and Vals.

In the game, as in life, I take precious little too seriously.

I like shooting down airplanes

TexMurphy · « **Reply #12 on:** November 15, 2004, 07:30:51 AM »

I fly fighter planes exclusivly. Im a fighter pilot period.

I like to use equipment that isnt state of the art when I play PvP games. I try to always find my nitche.

The plane I fly 90% of the time is the Yak9U. Im complementing this with some La5FN time. Basicly I just fly russian planes. Only expcetion is when a carrier needs help then I have to choose something else, as there are no russian carrier planes in AH. I fly the Seafire in this situation.

Ive flown the new Ki84 a bit as well but thats mostly because I wanted to feel out the new toy.

When it comes to the fights I prefer its smaller engagments or base defense when it comes to bigger engagments.

Though its sometimes hard to find the smaller fights so I do furball as well but dont like it as much.

My current goal is to win my first 1v2 engagment.

I do care about the stats a bit. I do wana have a kill/death over 1.0. Not because I think it makes me a better pilot but because I wana land kills and return to base. Im not a fan of "rush n spawn" game play. To avoid getting sucked into it I do have the goal of rtbing on as many sorties as I can.

Though I will never let a friendly pilot hang. I hate letting others die to save my skin.

Well thats me...
Tex.

I just like giving good fights to everyone.

If someone thinks they can kill me in 5 seconds and it actually takes them 10 . . . Then that’s a victory in my book!

streetstang · « **Reply #14 on:** November 15, 2004, 08:05:25 AM »

Um, I just log in and play.

I stick to mainly GV's tho. I like to drive them. I wear my helmut when I drive.
