Wirbelwind under furballs

[Scotch]

Oakranger I'm a trainer, and yet I enjoy doing exactly what is being complained about at times.
Going to call me a no skill dweeb too?

Yeah.

[gpwurzel]

Ok, I admit it, I actually like upping a wirble, and going causing chaos with it.

Well, I think if one is blind enough to let a WW get that close to his base, they deserve to get shot

I had 'Medium Vis Range' enabled to help with my FR on the deck in a furball, so I didn't see the wirble until it was too late. I was slow, flaps out and on the verge of stall.

Just some skilless ppl that cant get kills the hard way.

Another way of stating: "It's disgusting you choose to spend $15 your way."

I got bagged by a wirble the other night... I was in the middle of an awesome fight with B4Buster.

Luckily B4 had already shot me up a lot so he got the kill and not the spazz in the weeble wobble.

Not to get pissy about it, I 'died'..... big deal. Just annoys me seeing people avacadoting about in GVs in a flight sim.

Ok, I have seen this so much that I'm flat out tired of it.  Not just directed to you Xasthur, but all of the ones who say it.  Let's make this bold for everybody to read it just in case they have trouble.  This is not just a flight sim  It may have started that way, and it is primarily used that way, but here's what you do.
1.  Go to www.flyaceshigh.com
2.  Look right below the top banner and the pretty little picture in the Main Body of the page with the P-51 in it.
3.  Read and I quote "Welcome to the Internet's Premier WWII Combat Experience"
4.  Did you see, "Welcome to the Internet's Premier WWII Air Combat Experience"?  Nope you didn't
5.  Look to the right on the picture and read, I quote again "Engage in air, land, and sea combat"
6.  Oh, you mean it didn't say, "Engage in air and air only combat"???  Nope, it didn't

So, everyone that keeps thinking and/or saying this is just a flight sim needs some remedial reading classes.  You boys and girls can think what you want, if it's a flight sim to you, so be it, but it's not to a lot of the people here.  Is it primarily used as a flight sim, yes, but that's not what the HTC team has developed it as.  If they ment for it to be one aspect, it will be.  Until you go and develop your own WWII flight sim, quit whining that not everybody is using it as one.  Ok, I'm done.

  Yeah what gives us the right!!

[Anaxogoras]

Yeah xasthur, I'm also a medium-vis-range guy.  I don't see gv's unless I use shift-f4.  In the fight I was having there were no gv's around, and then all of a sudden, magically, 3 wirbels manifested into existence (I think guys who had just been shot down) and began to snipe at the fight.  It wouldn't be half the issue if there were no spawn points.

The fidelity of gv and maritime modeling in the game makes this argument suspect, imo.  I think they both have a place in the game, but it's pretty clear that they're intentionally not up to the standard of the aircraft.

 ...who cares

[bmwgs]

Feeling a little guilty and had to get that off your chest  ehh?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH BRONK------I see your back to trolling again.  OH WAIT!!!!!!!!!  You never stopped.

THose folks can do what they want, but it's still a lamer way to kill time, and somewhat of a griefer way to do it as well.  "Hey, there are a load of fellas that are fighting each other in planes....lets go take some WW's over there an  shoot at planes that are already fighting other enemies!"   It's their 15 bucks, but is also about as lame and dweeby as one can get....like taking GV's to vulch planes at airbase....perfectly legal, but tardish as all get out.

It just seems to get better and better everyday

I should probably qualify my remark, by causing chaos, I mean running to towns etc intent on mischief - I cant help it, boredom gets me doing strange things to provoke reactions.

I dont up one and crawl under furballs, but if your on a base take, I'll up one and defend (if I can)

One thing I cant stand is seeing only wirbels or ostis rolling into a town to kill it. I would like to see is their guns made so they do little damage to town building and other hard objects. This way when you see a GV raid on a base its not a conga line of flacks with one or two tanks to protect the flacks from other tanks while they take the town down in about two minutes.

Whats the difference between some punkstang diving in from 20k into a low furball and zooming back up to rinse and repeat and a Gv doing it from below?
