Score & Rank: Completely useless info

People who only HO can have a high Kills per Hour because they never waste time in combat and never waste time rtb because they die in the HO and get back to the tower faster to up another bird to HO again.

But they won't get a high K/D and high K/T at the same time this way. HO's are simply too dangerous even for skilled pilots.

I fly to kill and only RTB for ammo or fuel I think my KD is around 3 and my KS about 2. Another thing to look at is thier Hit %.
The overall score means nothing because most scorepotatos have really low bomber GV and attack ranks and have crappy fighter. Or fighter and attack swiched.
Only reason I ever try to keep good a good rank is to keep fleets outa retard hands.
(like the ones that try to take a little field with a box around it):rolleyes:


I agree with yah Larry... I tend to stick around too long with kills and end up dying in the process.  I try to rtb for ammo but am pretty decent at conserving ammo and end up dying with 400 plus cannon rounds left in my A8 holding 4 or 5 kills... :rofl   Damn that greed!!:t
And like yo said with low scores in bomber and attack is sitting in the EW and MW when no enemy are around to defend.  Milk the attack, bomber and gv capture's.:rolleyes:

What i do agree with is the EW and MW milk running. HT needs to role back to one main.

I disagree, because some folks do actually like to fight there.
Just score each arena seperate.

Good idea..

I have not had a fight in EW our MW for a long time. I do jump around arena's to see if their is a nice small furball but in EW and MW you never see a fight.

Well, actually most of the time (at least when I'm on) the pattern is:
Country with highest number of players attacking country with lowest number. Force ratios often go 8-1 or worse that way. Many tries for easy sneak captures, preferably by GVs. There are "squads" solely aiming at resetting the arena as often as possible. But jumping to the outnumbered and defending a base against them can be fun.

I had some chump calling me a newb because I'm in the 2900s, after he tried to HO me in a Niki. Of course, my score is high because I haven't done any Bomber, Attack, or GVing this tour. And of course, he wouldn't come to the DA... sigh.

Below is a list of CUrrent Top 10 Pile-itz...  Observe:

Game ID

1-slayr1
2-SHawk
3-BiPoLaR2
4-pacerr
5-Lusche
6-Dextur
7-AXER
8-shreck
9-Zip5389
10-AKDogg


I see ONLY 1 person on this list capable of puting a good fight..and thats AKdogg.... and He's 10th. I cant see any of the rest winning a 1v1 fight with lets say Skyrock, Stang, Dedalos, Dolfo, Wetrat, lev, bighorn, Fester, FX1 or any other good stick.

Face it RankTardlings will be just that... Its all they have to make themselves feel all nice and fuzzy inside to know they have a nice high shiney rank...
