top 5 worse things that can happen to you
« on: June 29, 2008, 06:25:18 AM »
Here is my top 5 most frustrating situations playing this game. I know most of you can agree, but feel free to add your experiences.

#5) Being 10k from a cv and the auto puffy ack gives you a pilot wound.

#4) Flying bombing missions, assigning targets..and right after your drop, you see someone missed their target and hit yours

#3) You wanna take a base ninja style by shelling the town with the cruiser, then half way into it, someone insists on waking that Field up

#2) that building that pops just as your troops are running
 

And the #1 spot has to be:

Finally got a good fight, 800...600..400 getting ready to shoot...then a huge text window pops onto your screen. "987684766294 wishes to join you".

5-2) Getting Discoed while flying a 262 when perk multiplier is below 1
1) Starting a 262 on a remote AF when suddenly the "War won by xxx" popup appears and the formerly friendly remote AF becomes hostile while still rolling on runway (Happened at least once...  :furious )

Being in a great fight, fighting hard to get a good guns solution..... pull the trigger on your 30mm just in time for some banana to fly across your guns from underneath trying to 'save you' from the enemy con and taking the full 30mm damage from killshooter.

Along that same line: You just touch down on the runway, trying to land a number of kills. You get the "War won by xxx" message and the ack, from what just seconds ago was your field, opens up and shoots you to pieces.

Try .showjoin 0.  It moves those to the text buffer.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Taking off in a 262 and being lazy and not checking how much fuel you took and run out when your over near an enemy field and get a capture.

 :rofl :rofl :rofl on #1

Don't know if I can name 5.

5) You're fighting 3 or more bad guys and you watch your so called wingies fly away.
4) You try to sneak up 9s
3) Some Sorry Sap kills your last troop at the map room
2) Some orator gets on 200 and preaches
1) you get a pilot wound in a GV. (had this happen)

Coming in for a landing in a 262 with 1/2 a wing, 40 feet from the runway, all smoothed out, and the 262 flops over on you while you're about to land.

Making it back to base all beat up with plenty of kills but have had to many blackouts due to pilot wounds. Just as you touch down your back into another one and waiting for the end sortie button to appear before it's to late.......then POP! your dead.

Pilot wound blackouts in general while landing.
 

#1 worst thing

 It's taken you 15-20 min to get in position and EVERYONE is counting on you to drop troops. Instead you resupply the enemy vehicles.   






First comes :confused: confused, then  :uhoh oh SHt then the embarrassment of it all :o (somebody just shoot me :pray:rolleyes:

5.Trying to shoot someone down and they warp as soon as you get a shot, or if they're 2.0K off your six and warp 400 off and kill you.

4. Having to stay 4.0K away from every single con because they don't want to come out of the cv ack (but you can't get too far away or cv ack is 100% accurate!)

3. Watching as the lone 190 (or La or Pony) dives through 20 friendlies just to vulch the field with all ack still up and radar.

2. Loosing a wing to cv ack that you can barley see on the horizon while you're finally in a good 1 on 1 fight.

1. Watch 7-10 enemy La-7's, Spit 16's and Pony-D's get on your six when there are 10-15 other targets (and many of them closer or lower)
