If you're going to run away...
« on: March 08, 2009, 11:36:41 AM »
... then just friken run away.  I don't mean gaining a little extension for a re-set.  I mean running away.

If you are then don't turn back as soon as I've got my tail turned to you.  I've already acknowledged that your faster and and are a waste of my time.  The only thing that's going to happen when you turn back is that you're going to end up running away again.  This is a complete waste of both our time.  If you feel you're overmatched then go find another fight and allow me to do the same.

Thank you.

I think your missing the point. There are guys who run away and as soon as you indicate that you are breaking off pursuit they come right back at ya.

Then they miss their HO shot and wind up running in the opposite direction.

They are not extending they just want to HO then run. Extending usually involves gaining both vertical and horizontal separation...... these types are always co-alt, guns blazing, then dive away.

I always fool the noobs that do this because I make it look like im turning away, but stop half way and head back at them, by then they are coming back at me and get a face full of my bullets.

Perhaps the answer lies in your not turning back into them, give them your 6 sucker em in and kill em.

Just a thought.

Funny, I used that exact trick against you in FSO when you were running away in your P-51.  I made a fake turn as if I were breaking off, and you immediately went into an immelman to re-engage...but I was expecting it, and shot you down not long afterward. :D

     Be sure and get permission from your opponent before performing any sort of manuver, as they may
squawk and moan and stomp their feet if you don't make it easy on them. :rolleyes:

It's a valid move when there's not enough room to reverse.. But running for sectors or to 5K out and returning only when the chaser is engaged..

It's quite tricky! But damn if I can't fly that P51 after 4 kills of BnZing and running and all the good stuff. Anything for a kill in FSO  :lol

I just don't chase them. I'd rather have them chasing me. That way they're forced to play my game. :salute
