bravery or cowardness

[SKYGUNS]

I always Hoe on the first merge, people will insult me for it but i rather Hoe than avoid it allowing you on my six. I consider it a great act of bravery and courage along with making it a bit personal (which always causes him to up again). Its YOUR fault if you decide to head on a 110.




As for colliding i do it all the time when outta ammo/fuel, your not gonna make it might as well take one with you....

I wouldn't call Hoing on the merge brave or cowardly, rather what Oleg said.  I can understand it's use in circumstances when you're at a disadvantage, but as your primary method of attack it's rather foolish.  Unless of course one enjoys dying... a lot.

Knob attitude, Skyguns.

There is no such thing as bravery in a computer game, kid.

Whilst there is no courage or bravery in Aces High there is lameness and by the sound of it.... you're awesome at that. 

Fail.

Seems you'd have more fun learning to fly the aircraft of your choice. That way you could actually dogfight in it.

When someone HO's me on the first merge, the first thing i think is "this is gunna be a easy kill". If you want to win the fight you won't HO. So by all means keep HO'n me.

See Rules #4, #5

I always like to get below my target if we're going Head-On, and avoid. That way I can climb up and swing my plane around from stalling, while they're diving down after trying to HO and picking up speed (therefore they can't turn as tight).

However, If I'm in a 109 with 30mm cannon and I see you're going to HO me with a Hurri 1, then I'll HO back.

I consider it a great act of bravery and courage

It would be if your risk to die was REAL; given the circustances of a game like AH its an unnecessary act of silliness

Ho'ing on the merge is like lining up with your opponent in the boxing ring to tap gloves before the match only to poke him in the eyes with your out-stretched middle and forefinger then throw a heavy right cross to his chops. When he goes down in a crumpled heap you exclaim joyously to the crowd with arms raised triumphantly, "I am a brave hero, the new Heavyweight Boxing Champion of the World!"...

It may be a "valid" tactic in an air combat game, but it's not sportsmanlike or "brave" by any stretch of the imagination.
