If someone crosses my guns on a high-deflection front quarter shot, I'm gonna take the shot... and if I get a kill, that's a solid kill. That's a difficult shot, much harder than a dead six shot.  To say that it's not a fight is just silly.

What's that got to do with anything?  But since you're dying to know, Sunday January 14th was the last time I was in the MA.  Flew in Orange for a bit and then in Blue and then in MWA when the numbers were up in that arena.  So what is your point?

i thought i clarified a bit more in my apology post to humble, i guess i should try harder to make my points plain enough to prevent you from latching on to one particular sentece throughout the course of a conversation.


maybe i should resort to that tactic but then this would resort to you and i running in circles so allow me to revise and condense for you bronk.


i dont think that the game is improving as much as it has previously. it is my opinion that gameplay has fallen into a slump.


it is not my opinion that the shot shown at the top of this thread is a bad shot, but that the sortie in its whole is a representation of the current trend in gameplay, that i do not think is the best direction for the game. i understand that my opinion is 100% biased and that there are a great many number of reasons for current course within the game.




ack-ack

flying the 38 is not elitist at all but how u present yourself is. to assume that u could dismiss me from the thread for only playing a year is an example of that

Just asking never ever see you in main. Talking smack to others that are active in the game. I was hoping that you weren't becoming a bbs pilot and not playing the game.

Humble i will take that shot every time.

Why would I use a shades account?

Might want to try searching my score under AKAK as that's my in game CPID.


Enjoy.

How was that sortie bad game play?

Humble made a few passes on a better turning ac and disengaged.  He then got to approximately 8k when engaged by a 38. Shot that one down.  Started his ascent but was engaged by yet another 38. Ohh shot that one down too.
Surely must be safe to start going up now?  Nope, alt monkey LaLa. What to do?  I know shoot that one down also.

How was that bad game play?  Because humble didn't keep turn fighting the first con when he lost advantage?
Please explain your reasoning.

I think that was great game play . Humble flew smart , killed a few enemies and had fun.

i agree with kermit. the typical AH dream of being a good stick has died. i've been playing a year and the transition the game has taken in that time has been drastic and for the worse.

For the most part ... the "dream" was already dead before you joined.

I guess your reference to the "dream" must be from what you have read ... rather than experienced.

It's hard to call for turn-fights only with the variation in the planes.  I don't expect a FW190D to turn fight with anyone except perhaps another FW190D in which case the winner would probably get slow and knocked off by a better turn-fighter.

I think we would have to have a less diverse plane set if we want more one-on-one type of turnfights.  If everyone flew the same spit, then everyone can go into a turn fight knowing that they can win it.  I personally like the diversity in the plane set and the diversity in styles.

I do have to admit that it's hard to get in slow turnfights with multiple cons without ack cover.  You are vulnerable and it can be hard to land any kills you get.  I'm very impressed by people who can land kills with slow turn-fight planes when away from their own base and without overwhelming numbers.

As far as HO.  I got HO by a mossie.  I got roped by a bomber!  It was embarassing as I made a stupid mistake trying to "race" others in getting the kill.  That was an example of excellent ACM that did not involve turning and was a front quarter shot.

It's all good.

P.S. Fly a Dora if you want to turn fight.  I'm sure you will get many takers. :aok

the dream lives on in those who let it, and those who let the dream live on dont worry about the rest of the players.



that was a nice shot on the la7, not easy to get good damage on enemy in that shot.....i would only not take that shot if it was the first merge.





for the record, Kermit would destroy 90% of the people in this thread in a one on one fight in almost any planes.


its the more modest players like kermit, who kick arse all day and never get recognition.


anyone who doesnt believe me can ask him to DA.
