There's going to be alot of P51, F4U, F6F, P47 and Fw190 pilots that are going to be very sad they lied in their after action reports during WW2 saying they were in a dogfight with Spits, Zekes, Ki's, 109s when they actually weren't according to you. :(

Don't confuse fear of Dying, with the fear of Living.

No one wants to die.  However, there are very few people out there who aren't afraid of living.

Whether there is an actual, tangible consequence for dying or not should not alter the the definition of accepted fighter combat dogma. Either E-Fighters are able to, by definition, furball turnfighters in the classic sense employing E fighter tactics or they are not, in real life or in the game. Wether the real pilot dies actually and the simulating pilot only dies theoretically should not change the facts. In another thread I quoted the US Navy's definition of a furball, the US military and RAF sure as hell didn't consider it only a furball if their E-Fighters turnfought the enemies' turnfighters. I guess we had better get the US Dept. of Defense on the phone to inform them that according to the mighty Slapshot, Morpheous and Mars, they are incorrect and need to ammend their fighter combat manuals accordingly. ;)

I can just see the WW2  pilots interviewed after a fight, "Well son did you actually turn with the zeke?"  
"Well no sir, I used my speed and firepower to bleed his E vertically then killed him as he stalled out."
"I'm sorry to hear that my boy, no kill for you, you didn't actually 'fight' him, had you turned your F4 with the zeke it would have been a real fight and you would have got credit for the kill"
"Sir, that makes me very sad, I killed him using my planes attributes to negate his advantages as I was tought"
"That may be but, you are the 15th F4 pilot I've taken AAR's from and none of you turned with any of those 30 Zekes, that was no furball at all! Cowards!"


Give me a break! :rofl

This is a game. There is no fear. There is no cowardice. No bravery. No heroes. Within the confines of the arena, there are no ethics. This is just a game.

There is simply tactics. Not everyone shares your objective. Likewise, they won't share your tactics.

Don't expect for a moment that you can prove your manhood in the arena.

It's a video game. Nothing more.

You remind me of a little kid who doesn't want to hear his mother tell him to go clean his room so puts his hands over his ears shouting Lalalalalalalalalalalala hoping she'll stop telling him something he doesn't want to hear. ;)
