i feel like i failed to mention that I'm talking about the furball lake, not dueling. dueling i get your point. but i feel the furball lake is a competitive area, and i care about my own k/d because i feel like it is an important stat. i also feel like a bunch of MA people are making negative comments about the DA. you don't play there why the hell do you care. all these unwritten rules, why don't they post an arena message so that we all get a clue, maybe us DAers would learn a lession. If you high and mighty MA guys hate the DA so much don't go!
p.s. this is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.
Dude.....there have sooooo many threads on furball lake. They ALL end up like this thread. That should tell you something about what the "community" thinks about it. I personally have spent endless hours in the furball area trying talk sense into those dweebs. Especially Spacy and some of the others. They don't care. They don't fly to win anything. They could care less about "dog fighting". They fly to "shoot stuff". Their idea is to fly in a hord and gang every single contact. To them it is fun to do that and see who can get the kill first. Their mentality is that of a child who plays an arcade game.
Furball lake IS NOT a "competitve area" as you might think. There is no skill involved in flying off a mountain at 5k and entering the fight with endless energy and calling out on radio...help I got somebody on my six...then having 5 or more guys come in from 10 k and pick you to death. That is not competition.
It is more of a "Gladiator areana" where there is a GANG who rome around and as soon as they see some guy in the corner duking it out they run over and all 10 of them beat up one guy. Then chant "we are the champions"...like the accomplished something.
Now furball lake is what it is. I agree don't go there unless you are up to getting ganged. But that doesn't change the fact that it is filled with skilless gang tards. The ONLY reason I go there is to practice reversals. To me it doesn't matter that I get ganged. I just practice reversing all of them one after the other. So its good for one thing to me....simple practice against drones.
OH and you won't get any of them to do a private dual. Don't even ask. All you will get is a bunch of "1v1 proves nothing..thats not real fighting...etc..."
Here is what happens when I go there
Agent ups from field flys in at 5k...trolls around looking for a merge....2 turns later the guy is dead.
Now over on rook side the radio goes:
Agent is here...OMG....Oh S. .....in the k4..he is knit. Lets all gang him cause he is one of those MA guys who thinks we are dweebs.
I up again fly over at 5k. I can see them coming. ALL of them. So I end up fighting zeeks and diving temps. I get killed almost immediatly.
This repeats a few times.
No I up and stay off the sides looking for a 1/2/3 vs me fight. No takers. I get close enough to bait one out. The min he looses his gang tard friends icons he turns and flys back. Now they won't fight at all unless they can all gang one player.
Now I have two choices...get a dweeb ride like a temp or niki. Fly to 20k and spend my time BZ picking.....BOOOORRRRIIIINNNN
GGGG.
or
Fly in my friendly hord and fight for kills in the gang........BOOOORRRIIINNNGGG and STUUPPPPPIDDDD
I have NEVER heard anyone say on the radio....back off I got this guy...with only a few exceptions of players who know me. I have NEVER seen anyone take it upon them self to fly high over a fight and GUARD the 1v1 against the pickers.
