Ok, so through my 2 1/2 year career as an Aces High player (started in April of '06) I have seen a lot of the different types of players in the game. I'll just list them and see if you agree/disagree, think I forgot something etc.

1. Ranker

He/she will do anything for his name to be up in lights on the Aces High webpage. They pick there fights (usually BnZ type players), and usually milk run empty fields/undefended strat targets etc. Many people don't like the way this player plays and think its silly.

Enemies:
All groups.

2. The Fighter

He/she will do anything for a fight, whether it be a duel, furball fight etc etc. Most do not care for rank, and most will switch sides looking for a good fight. They sometimes start fights and sometime pick there fights. Many of the most talented and respected players fall into this category.

Enemies:
Warmonger, Armchair General and Ranker.

3. The Bomber

He/she flies almost purely Bomber/Attack aircraft. Level bombing, dive bombing etc. Destroying things is the name of the game for them. Many extremely talented and respected players occupy this group.

Enemies:
Fighter (more of a rivalry), Ranker, and Armchair General.

4. The Gv'er

He/she almost purely fights in tanks. Wether it be a tank fight, spawn camp, destroying a town etc etc, they do it all. The furball normally doesn't matter to them. Once again, many talented and respected players fall into this group.

Enemies:
The Bomber (more of a rivalry), Ranker, Armchair General.

5. The "I wanna have fun" guy

These players do anything to have fun. They normally come home from work/school and just want to get away from life for an hour or two. They normally log on and will do whatever is needed (pork a base, bring in troops, join a mission etc etc). Many players, from all groups, fall into this.

Enemies:
None.

6. Warmonger

Most of these types are strictly one sided and are the "I wanna win the war" type of guys/gals. Highly respected by many players on there country. They usually lead missions, pork bases, and try to capture fields. Most are very open to idea's.

Enemies:
Armchair General, Ranker, Fighter.

7. Armchair General

This is a Warmonger, taken to the extreme. This type sits in the tower/hanger/O'club etc. and order players around, wether it be to pork a base or capture one, they simply will not do anything, which is the big difference between a Warmonger and a Armchair General.

Enemies:
All groups.

8. The New guy

Usually on his/her 2 week trial, many will ask question after question regarding the game. Many other players dislike them/tired of them after a short while. Everybody started out this way, wether it be in this game or another.

Enemies:
None.

9. The "Jerk"

These types are split into 3 sub-groups: The cocky player (who does anything to show off his skills), The "piss anyone off" player (who usually targets new guys and so on), and types that fit into both. Disliked greatly by most other groups, these types usually fit into the "Ranker" group as well.

Enemies:
Everyone but the Ranker.


Does this seem relatively accurate?

This is just a re-written copy of the one Murdr created way back in Air Warrior.  His version was far better too.

Ok, to break it down.
I'm a Fighter, I absolutley love to fight. I don't do it for rank, and probably never will, but I enjoy getting those 1v1s and having fun doing it. The way I see it, you can tell alot by how someone fights 1v1.

I'm a Warmonger, I have chosen a squad that likes to take bases and win the War, so I have to be the guy that likes to take bases and win wars.

And the best one I'm good at, being the Jerk, I love to start fights on 200 just for the hell of it, to see what people can do to back up the watermelon talk. I realy love doing it to Tripl5, he can say as much as he wants but he can never, absolutly never, back his talk up. So when he fights me, thats it enough making him mad, although on a second thought, I just might rag on him for as long as I or he plays AH. I love to try and show off the skill,  I know I'm good, not as good as others, but I still know I'm good. Most fights I can win with a realy unbalanced fight, such as E and Alt. I usualy get them down and they die pretty quick. I like to fight guys who are much better than me, I know the only way I'm going to get much better than I already am, is to fight some of the best sticks in the game.

Thats me!

Nuff said.

Ive only been playing about 5-6 months, no  particular style of player really annoys me except for one:

    The almighty "Prosecutor".

This is the guy that records every single frigging sortie that he/she flies. And God forbid that you are the person that shoots down the "Prosecutor". For if you do, soon after the "you shot down <player id> #1. You receive a message similar to this:

 Dogfight:
 "I emptied my guns into you and nothing-u hit me once and i died."
 "I recorded the whole thing and i'm sending it to HTC"

GV:
 "15 direct turret shots and nothing"
 "u hit me once and i died"
 "I recorded the whole thing and i'm sending it to HTC"
 
The "Prosecutor" will also take screenshot after screenshot of any and all smacktalk, regardless of to whom it is directed.

Have a nice day everyone.

One of the best things I've ever read on these forums.





Yes, I'm drunk,

Boner

[BillyD]

THE DRUNK player that plays wasted and (       ) at you for an hour for turning a carrier that you never had control of. Often found singing songs and slurring on F12 range channel

Sometimes mistakingly taken for a #9

Although a #9 is oft times mistaken for "THE DRUNK"

I am in the bomber catagory without a doubt.  However, me and my squadies like to take a break every now and then to try our hand at furballing.  <S> To all you fighter jocks that have it together.  I feel out of my element in a fighter. (for the time being)
