no ammo? no problem
« on: January 11, 2009, 07:51:37 PM »
Situation:  Temp in's on my lala, I reverse, ping (smoke him) and watch him flee.  Being curious I turn on film to ID him if he got away.

I sprayed my last few rounds trying to make something happen.  Now ammo-less and still in pursuit and closing around 600 yds.  I decide to see if I can get him to collide with me by flying under him and coming up in front, risking myself in front of the 4 hizookas.

It worked - he ran smack into my "tow-target-self."  Shows one minor flaw of the collsion code, but then again he could have avoided me, right?

It occurs at 3:30-3:40.   For bonus footage you can see me basically own a niki  right after - hoping to fly him into the ground, but, meh...

saw you going at it with him on 200... thought it was funny. I knew exactly what the situation was. No ammo ect... I seem to remember a film similar to this one you threw up probably 3-4 years ago now.

Cause that's what people used to do a long time ago in AH. Saddly there's just a few left who realize that even with out ammo, you can still "beat" the other guy even if you dont shoot him down. Oh yeah and the cool thing about getting shot down, you get a pretty new plane right away.

I thought intentional ramming was frowned on.

me in a p39 vs a p38..i was trying to kill a panzer(which apparently a p39 isn't good for?), when he inned on me. at first, he kept his alt and speed. next ya know, we're in a nice turnfight. i got a few hits on him, but nothing fatal...i think i smoked one of his engines. i ran outta ammo, and was well within range of my base to run away......but it was just soooo much fun trying to simply stay saddled up on him. i still don't know if he ever realized i was empty.....but it was a blast.
