Been that way for most for years.  

I think the current crop of 'aces' in the MA took SHawk as their idol.  Makes for some exciting "fights" lemme tell ya.

The MA is about 98% filled with coward pilots at the moment.  Peeps used to say it was newbs, but I see 2 and 3 year vets flying the same way.  They just will not fight or commit to an attack unless 3 or more are engaged with the target.  I do not see it getting any better with the top "ranked" crowd of cowards being the new influence.:rolleyes:

all the best


I've flown the P-40 maybe half @ dozen times in 6 years. It may be a wee bit sluggish but sure is fun to T&B with.

Yep, that one tangle was fun till the other guy jumped in. Oh well, that's life in the war torn skies of Aces High :D

I hear what you'r saying, but I don't think its that simple. While there are a ton of 1 trick ponies (not the plane, if you know what I mean) and pick-n-vulch guys, I'm encouraged to see more simple ACM than I used to.

Where I used to see a stark split between the stick stirring easy kill and the master fighter who reverses and whoops my butt, now its plain old common to see guys do the break turn/ lag roll reversal attempt. Not that its often done well, but its there....and that bodes well, in my book.

I hope its all a matter of developmental stages. I know I went through the "any way I can land multiple kills, I'll do it" period, but that got old for me. SO we had this big influx with the arena changes, and they're moving through those stages. There WILL be cases of arrested development (skill development, I mean -- not talking about 200...although now that I think about it...).  

Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I hope we'll be seeing some ACM disciples too.
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

As to why I care...I am tired of his crap. Not just with me, but other players as well. I just want everyone to know how weak his kung fu really is. :)


Yup...only HO was by fireplug.  Actually good stick work on your part getting on his 6.  Just get him some cheese to go along with his whine!  :cry
