The whines and angry tirades over open channel make it so worth it.  Honestly, if you're not pissing off the other guy you're not doing your job right.

I dont shoot chutes. Nothing to be gained in pissing off people you dont know for no reason.

If they get pissed off by me killing their cartoon pilot, then they are precisely the people i know that i love to piss off.  If they are not pissed off by me killing them, we can both see the funny side of it.

Killing chutes is a win win situation.

Shoot, I shoot chutes and if you shoot my chute while I’m drifting down smoking my cheroot then give your horn a toot.  I don’t give a hoot.   :salute <---pronounce what that guy is doing for another oot...   :D

Or so says the little voice in your head.

The truth is you have no idea what the other guys is thinking so why sink to the silly infantile act of shooting him in his chute and rubbing in the fact you just shot him down? Why waste such an opportunity?

I shoot them because, well, how else would you find out that you could .ef?  :rofl  Not to mention that the chutes usually put up better fights than the people that are hanging from them :rofl

I am an equal opportunities chute shooter.  I shoot the chutes of anyone, not just people i have shot down.  Maybe i am just a silly infant?

If chutes were never intended to be shot then they wouldn't have such a spectacular explosion effects.  The explosion is far larger and more colorful than a plane's.  Why would they go through so much trouble adding such a glorious effect if they didn't intend it to be seen?

The truth is you have no idea what the other guys is thinking so why sink to the silly infantile act of shooting him in his chute and rubbing in the fact you just shot him down? Why waste such an opportunity?

What is silly and infantile are those that get so offended about shooting chutes in a game and post over the top, melodramatic posts crying about other people shooting chutes.

Yaknow Ack I know its only a cartoon game but for some reason I cant bring myself to shoot chutes for no reason. I guess Ive just seen to many people spitting out the last of their lives on dirty city sidewalks. Whatever it is I cant bring myself to do it. And I think anyone who would should part time as an "edited by me for lack of taste"

Not that I want to start another round here. :devil

I guess it's safe to say that you won't be bailing out around any P-38s in the near future.

  Why shoot the chute? Let him float down helplessly from 25k and let him get what he deserves to be an alt monkey... It's more fun watching him whine "Please! Some one shoot me" then hearing him say "Don't shoot me! I'm harmless up here!"

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.
