K, for those of you who think HOs are easy to avoid.  Lets try it in the DA.  I will try to HO you and you try to get out of the way.  Lets see how easy it is.  

Anyone wants to try?

If you dont make any mistakes (speed and angle wise), most HOs have a pretty good chance of being avoided. Its the repeat of the process and/or the number of HOing enemies that gets me most times.

HO not a problem even for a newbie

In my brief experince so far, I didn't find HO to be a problem.

I found I could avoid it most of the time. It's very easy to do. I allowed some chance hit but I think I could improve on that, too.


HO is not a major problem, I don't think, even for a newbie like me.

I find ACM to be advantageous to wasting time on HO.

typical HO thread. Someone got shot down in a HO and now everyone comes in to talk about how much better, or more honorable, they are than people who HO.

If being better at a computer game makes you feel better as a man (or woman) then...  yay for you?

If the objective for fun is just the ACM and not the shooting down, why not go to the TA where lethality is dialed down? (it is dialed down, right?) You can have your fight and pepper each other without the fight ending right away.

Sheesh, complaining how people fly their virtual planes. Next, people are going to be complaining about the planes people fly... :rofl

you would miss/i would avoid and waste your angles letting me kill you right after 95% of the time. 5% luck factor involved.

i'll happily test that.

People been complaining about HOs and what planes people fly for as long as I've been around this game.  If you look at my registration date, you'll see that's been awhile.

Of course, back then the whining about one particular plane was so thick that said plane got itself perked. Though, the plane was accounting for about 1/4 of the kills in the entire MA, so the whines were not completely unfounded. That's how the C-Hog got it's perk status.  

Point is, the HO "discussion" isn't new. The "discussion" about what people choose to fly isn't new. Even Lazs talking about the "fluffers" isn't new (but he occassionally comes up with new names for them!) Even people like me coming in and saying "don't worry about what the other guy does" isn't new! :D
