24 hours played still at over 18 hit% hmmmm....

[Strip]

112 sorties over 24 hours of play?

Thats only roughly 13 minutes per sortie...

You have ADD or something?

If it's someone like Lusche (or whoever it is) who likes to hunt buffs in a 262 it's easy enough to pop around the map looking for mid to low incomers, up, blow em away then land.  He must have actually had to fly or climb to get up to 13 minutes per sortie.  Really, there's no mystery here.

I haven't checked but I'd say half my kills are buffs and I'm running in the 12%'s.

[EDIT]  OK, I checked... 50 of 118.

dam lost what i typed it went something like this,

1) i'll post in any thread i feel like,
2) i have no beef with the almighty SR,
3) buffs can be very predictable,  this one time in band camp 2 bish noobs were attempting to sink a CV quite a way from their base.  They upped ki-67's and didnt even fire at me.  I killed them 3 times over in a corsair and in one run my hit % went through the roof.  Capping a CV is one way of finding bombers,  the other is seeing where an attack is coming from and intercepting them before they get to target.

Your initial post seemed to bring into question another players skills and you thought it was a shade.  Unless you knew it was Lusche already and you wanted to stir something up? 

I'm sure he will be along shortly to explain to you exactly how he can maintain such a high hit %.  I'm surprised someone who knows the game aswell as you do are falling into the "how did he do that" category.  Nothing is impossible.

Sorry is someone boasting here that they kept a 18% hit rate for 24 hours??

gixxer I think SR was questioning snailman of some sort of dweebery relating to his current hit%.

[yanksfan]

112 sorties    18%

You said the check would clear this time

[Gixer]

Really I've seen much worse. My personal favourite is the way score wh*res rack up a few sorties under Fighter in their favourite perk ride at tour start for the lowest Fighter score possible, and/or fly nothing but perk rides every tour. There after the majority % of their sorties are Attack.

This single statistic is common amongst all the score wh*res and makes them stand out as the noobs that they are. That plus 1v1 they are generally some of the easiest kills in the game even in their favourite perk ride.

Of course every single one of them will state "I don't score"

double post..

[Bruv119]

gixer this isnt about score whoring lets not  distract from the case at hand.

SR is on a mission to find out whether this statistic is above board or he wouldnt have posted about it (killing 2nd account/spying etc).  Lets say he is the self appointed judge of all dweebery,  Personally I think it is achievable.  A player who can read the map well, the dar bars etc could locate bombers all day long.  Usually they would get caught out by a decent gunner or a lack of targets I bet snailman didnt have this problem and should be complemented on his kills.

[Gixer]

Yes but 18% is nothing for someone out to game stats/score.

agreed.

I reckon i could top that easily If I gamed fighter mode like a pro.

[moot]

Wetrat used to average 25-30% all tour long, fighters A2A.

easiest way to rack % is to use a tater gun imo.

If someone gets 20%+ with US fighters, respect

Really? Now I might be wrong as I've never bothered to learn the stat/score system but I always thought this shows where the stat for hit % gets screwed up badly. Now All BS aside and only looking at pure A to A against fighters my impression was this..

With the 37mm, I fire a much smaller volume of  rounds at each target, a fighter say on average 5 rounds where 1 hit will kill anything up to Buff size targets instantly. 50cals I could fire 100 rounds or more hit with most and end up with a higher number of hits per kill % compared to the 37mm as I'm firing and hitting with a greater number of rounds to get the kill.

The stat isn't hit/miss it's hit/kill so the 50cal is always going to come out higher since you need a higher volume of rounds to get the job done. If I used the single MG with the 37mm my % would go up. As it stands I never use it, only the 37mm.

Don't get it.  What's the point.  Also, I'm under the weather and more dull than my usual dullness.
