Kills: duke it out or quick and easy?
« on: December 04, 2008, 08:58:07 PM »
I know everyone has their own desire of what they would prefer to have while playing this game. Being that some guys don't care about working for the kill, and others do. I would have this set for poll but because I can't figure out or have the opinion to do it, i'll just do this way. I personally fly the pony (like everyone didn't know that one) so I usually do the whole B/Z but if I can get 1vs1, i'll definetly get down and dirty and work for it.


Would you rather:

Kills quick and easy?

Work for it?

Depends on whats around...1v1 let the fight go where it wants and have some fun. If I know the cavarly is on the way I want it over like now. To many ganglets around looking for a good home.

Most cases I like to duke it out, but on occasion I try to get the fight over with as soon as possible. Just depends on whats going on at the time. I have refused to take some shots to keep the fight going, when in a 1vs1. Even a 2 on 1 I like to keep going a little depending on how things are going.

I always know when it's you too. One of the only pony sticks that will turn with a spit even when they start out with alt.  :salute

Duke it out. 

I'd rather "die" in a good fight then land 10 I didn't work for.

I like to have a good fight then a nice quick kill. I hate it when they just shoot me into little pieces.

Live or die I'd rather have a long drawn out advantage swinging fight without someone budding in. Had a few in the last few years but they are getting rarer by the month.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

It totally depends on the situation and the planes involved. If I come across a lone Jug or Fw190 at 8k in my Typhoon I'd love to have a nice long fight. But, if I'm in a massive and complex engagement with SpitXVI's and Niki's flailing around, spewing cannon rounds like agitated bees, I wanna pop them like the ripe fruit they are as quickly and easily as possible in rapid succession...

Given a choice, duke it out. The MA does not often afford that choice if you want to live long enough to kill the next victim on your list, though. In the parameters of the MA, I try to be an efficient killer but an uninterrupted 1v1 is always a thrill.   :salute

Duke it out, but only with more than 1. In the MA, 1 v 1 are usually pretty quick suprisingly. Someone always comes in with the advantage or knows more ACM than the other person.

If trying to break a cap, cap a base, or in any other situation where it is better to have less of them around I will go for the quick kill, If furballing i wont worry about going for a quick kill.
