Some useful tips to newer GVers out there, but all in all...I laughed

A few things, why insist on doing it in the MA? why not the TWO ideal areas already designed

• The Aces High Training Arena Ground Vehicle Practice Area
• The Aces High Dueling Arena Ground Vehicle Practice Area

Ok I Gv ALOT and most people would say i'm a camper lol and they would be right.  But if anyone is interested I can give you advice on becoming more accurate, and getting your round off accurately while being quicker than the other guy.  I'm in main arena almost everyday PM if you whanna work on your gv'ing.

then you still say you want to do it 1 on 1 in the Main arena again?

I agree pictures would be helpful but i'd rather get some 1 on 1 time with people, but i'll mention a few tips here and go more in depth in main arena.

it is all well and good, and everyone appreciates others stepping up to help.....but if I did not know better was you going to set there in the MA and let unknowing noobs practice zeroing in on you? or was you hoping to wax as many as you could all the while telling them how wrong they were doing it?

I was glad to see you open up and actually give some pointers on the Help & Training Forum Boards.....instead of insisting it be done only in the Main arenas........ ( TC's own personal observation of the 1st 2 post by Belial......not meant as a Flame by no means )



Banshee7, your less than 2 cents worth was not even worth the wasted time you took to type your post.......
....pointe blank....


Belial, and all other gv'ers  do a search for  Ground Vehicles and the username horn  also, do a search for the LTAR squadrons post on Ground Vehicles......and whels is another username to search for....all these longtime players have absolute amounts of knowledge regarding GV's, sighting/targeting, tips & tricks and what have you........

I look forward to reading more Gving tips from ya Belial.....keep at it

Yeah tequilachaser I see where your coming from, what I meant is you will get more hands on training if you want in the main arena.  Take for instance I take a guy under my wing and we roll onto a vbase, I can direct him where to sit and what angles to utilize.



Oh yeah and I typed in the keywords Horn, LTAR, and Whels none of which came back with any hits except this thread.

Maybe a better approach would be to host a clinic for 5-10 people in the TA.  After working with them for awhile on sighting etc, move into the MA and assault a V Base as a group, trying to put into action the principles that you were discussing in the TA.

Just a thought.

I see what your saying, the odds of getting 5-10 people in at a time are pretty slim though, I'll give it a try.

I dont feel obligated to help anyone I thought it was a nice gesture.

I'll bet you get more people show up then you think.  Post it in here ahead of time.  Maybe include your lesson outline so folks know what you are going to talk about.  The important thing is to plan it out ahead of time so the lesson can be as organized and direct as possible.  Nobody wants to go to a clinic and waste a bunch of time because the instructor isn't organized.  When conducting the clinic, I would suggest that you choose a VoX channel to use rather then range.  Get out away from the more commonly used areas so as not to be interrupted by non class related chatter.  Etc etc, you probably don't need me telling you any of this...  I just know I have been to good and bad training clinics. 

 It is more then a nice gesture in my opinion.  If you have the time and willingness to help others improve, that's waaaaaaay better then simply posting whines about things like some people choose.

That's alot better description of what you had in mind.......it'll help GV'ers understand your intentions better, I think

[Belial]

Yeah i've seen those links before there helpful for learning the basics.

[Banshee7]

Edited...not worth arguing with a trainer.  They always win only because they have "authority"

Ok how about shooting overhills when no one can see you.

Position your tank so you can only see over hill with pintle gun..... Line your barrel up with pintle gun.... Now fire....Switch back to pintle gun real quick...once u see where your bullet lands you can sight with curser..Normally only works if the nme is far enough away.....
