Nothing wrong with ALT, some people just not patient enough to climb up there.

kazaa has been busy but he posted in our squad forum today saying he is going to knock some rust off and go killing this month.

I'm sure you 2 will run into each other at some point ;)

As far as communication; I think not. Unless it's me or a squaddie saying "Shop or whom ever,  watch Pony diving in" I usually hear nobody say a thing in furballs. I know it's tough to look out the window when trying to steal a kill. :mad:   I think this needs to be worked on in Bishland more than anything. And maybe our K/D as a team :)

I think the only time there is anything wrong with alt, is when the other guy is higher.

There definately are too many people on each country to put it down to one 'stereotype' but from what I've noticed:


Bishops:  Are generally far more 'friendly' guys in that there is a lot more range banter (sometimes very frustrating, but usually a good thing) and far more Country channel nonsense (in a good way).

Bish seem to be great a packing together and organising big hits on bases and also seem to be willing to up and up and up and up again to kill troops or whatever.

I definately agree with the generally lower skill level, which is perhaps why they work so well together on the real-estate side of things... because they're not busy looking for good 1v1s (Of course this is not the case for all)

In summary, the Bish are great fun to fly with and good for the land-grabbing style of play (this is not a bad thing, just a different game aspect)


Rooks: Not as talkative on range or country channel but do communicate far more effectively in multiple-con situations... far better check-six calls and much more willingness (and competence) to help finish a rope or clear your six etc. (not to say that there aren't bish that do this, just not as many)


Perhaps as a result of this ^ the Rooks are, on the whole, far more accomplished fighter pilots (again, there are of course many great sticks on both other sides, i'm not trying to suggest otherwise)


I think that there are more tight-nit squads flying for the rooks, so I suspect that much of the banter on range that is found on the Bish side is done on  closed Squad channels.

Rooks definately seem more interested in finding a good fight rather than taking a base (as I am, fighter combat is more entertaining for me), which is, again, just a different style of play.

As has been said before, those who fly a certain way will join with others who do the same (mostly, at least). So those who recieve no interest from Rooks in taking bases will see bases being porked and steamrolled by the Bish and think "chit, I want to be in that" and will head over that way.... because lets face it, everyone likes to win at least some times :p

Same with fighter pilots who tire of sloppy team-work... they see others doing it effectively and join them....


Knights: I've not flown with enough to make judgement, but they seem to be somewhere in the middle of the Bish and the Rooks. The jacks of all trades, so to speak.

This is how it seems to be during off-peak, Australian times.

The best thing anyone can do is take the time to switch teams for a good length of time, you make new friends, get away from the knobs on the previous country :lol:, meet new ones and learn new things.

It's always good fighting against those you used to fly with, too.

The Bish is the Borg. They do great when their Fuhrers are online to dictate the brainles mob into doing their bidding, but when the great dictators aren't on-line they are clueless to the max.

 The Knits are a timid, shy, sandbag of a country which spends most of its time getting beaten up to a pulp.

 The Rooks, are like someone suffering from a premature ejaculation while having sex. They are invincible when the steam is on... for about 5 minutes.. and then after dumping their load they fizzle down into a slob.

It's quite possible that the guys that enjoy fighting for the fights and ACM have been there and done that in the land grabbing department. I've done my share of it I know.

Every country has its lil differances , but generally they are all pretty close to being the same.

Blanket statements and pretty much not giving credit to SEVERAL squads on the Knight Land Grabbing Company is what I was basically calling out.


And at least you stopped furballing and trying to build your score long enough to post:D
