Good to see ya back around, Animl!
Agent360 had some great detailed posts, dedalos and Shane on the 2nd page of this thread summed it up pretty good.......
Animl, find the films, if you want to have any credibility around here, since most think you are some new beginner.....
and anytime ya see me online, Animl, give me a shout and I'll go to the DA or TA with ya to help you knock all that rust off......
fellow AH'ers Animl is a Good Fella....he been in flight sims a lot longer than most and probably before 1/2 these players today were born ( joking )...he just been out of play for a good long while...... give him some time to adjust......
( don't forget...... post the films
)
( you would classify Animl,to the likes of Spatula, Dok, Brooke, Fencer, Murdr, Hammer, Widewing, Badboy, Rolex...etc...... in how he carried himself and how much effort he put into helping the fellow flight sim community....... I think some misdjudged his opening post, and to add he may have exagerated a lil much about certian other game players ......it all plays
)
TY Sir. <S>
TY for the compliments as well.
>GREAT!< to be back.
This will get cleared up. I have a few post to read, preferably Agent's
But I am going to use this reply to cover a few things. There is no way I will respond to dweebery.
I don't know if getting discoed while recording from sortie to sortie has anything to do with it, but basically 2 days of films seem to be MIA. Call me what you must, only the dweebs and seals would do it anyway. I have no hidden reason to ask about these things.
Which quite frankly the films seem irrelevant at this point as Agent (and others) knows EXACTLY what I am talking about without them. When some *demand* a film to prove what I see exist, even though it's *somewhat* common knowledge to some to exist, (or someone wouldn't be able to explain it like Agent), better yet, 90% of the people asking for the film use the maneuver on a regular basis.
I didn't realize you had to have a film to talk about anything and everything in here. If I were talking to HT or Pyro about it, it would never be without a film. If I thought it were that important or a KNEW for fact something was funky I would NOT have posted here, it would have been a nice silent email fired off with quiet films and names attached directly to HT, Pyro and Skuzzy. Why would I ask robbers if they robbed a bank?
Some, (Moot, Scotch, SkyRock and a few others) in here are trying to take two different situations and mix them into one for the masses, show and attension.
A dogfight and a post. They think I'm posting this because of who won a dogfight. Which is pure ego gone mad dog crazy. I think they are int e habit of harrassing people who give a .... The only thing it has to do with the Muppets is because they are best known to use the moves, yet stand here acting stupid about it. Even if there were no errors in the game, they don't want you to know how to use it on them. <wild giggle> Sad part is SkyRock wasn't even involved in any way. <G> He likes placing himself in the spotlight. <shrug>
*SkyRock*, (and Moot and Scotch) is a PRO at both moves, why doesn't he chime in with anything but fruitless threats to "own" me? I find that a little ironic. Why he (they) doesn't comment on his favorite moves. You know how they respond when it's brought up to them, "where's the film". Ironic they need a film of themselves from someone else to know what they do all the time. They will talk about anything BUT. Denying it exist openly when you actually use it,.. maybe there's something there>?
>>>SO that leaves us with, *exactly as you stated*. Is there something in the game itself that does not allow the chaser to see the flip in real time? If not my answer to my question is no.
I understand the flat snap stall (placing chaser as target), what I don't understand is how fast it restores E to do it yet again in the game, within a certain time frame. Is there a flaw in drag and\or stick response?
In the Rope,..If you have enough E and SEE the flip you still have the option to move out of his way. If you don't see it, you will *unknowingly* pose for the HO. Now IF said pile-it knows the chaser won't see him flip in real time, then I would call that a soft bug exploitation to the pile-it's advantage and score, and unduly detrimental to mine.
That said; I'm going to split hairs here...
While it may show up in film that is NO guarantee it will show up in *Real Time*. And I *am* speaking Real Time. A film can *easily* capture what you don't see, *especially* if it has to do with Lag or FPS (unless HT steps in and says I am wrong that's what I believe). I have NO issues with FPS, they scream,... Would I bet on losing a the same packets at the same point of of a specific move over and over? NO< not placing that bet.
I don't care if he can actually do it or not, I care if I can see it happen real time so it's MY decision to move or die, not his.
Now I will view Agents info and films since he's one of the few who responded intelligently.
If I am wrong I am wrong, (not sure how wrong is defined here), but I'm not going to be afraid to ask questions on the BB and be afraid of the attacking seals. <shrug>
Thanks again for the welcome.
