Bleh. Some of the comments in this thread are pure garbage. They were in the MA, not in the DA. Sure VNE tanks his opportunity badly. It's not like he then nosed to the deck and ran. He continues, and sets up his opponent with a drag. Every last one of you in this thread have dragged before. The 47 then blows it as well. VNE reverses, but so what? Maybe he felt Mole(the 47) was outclassed and needed help. Maybe Mole even asked. This is in the MA, not the DA. It is foolhardy to expect everyone to pair off in 200 or so nice little 1v1's.
VNE has been around for a while sure, but it's not like he's a stone cold killer in the game. Watch the film, no offense to VNE, he's not a ringer pilot or shot.
Yes, if it were me dragging I would have inquired if Mole needed help before rejoining the fray, unless the 109(Junky) needed to be dead quickly(other cons coming). No doubt many of you O-so-noble guys would have done the same. But in the MA it is unreasonable to expect average players, in the middle of a fight, to do this.
Additionally, we are not mind readers. We only saw a snippet of a fight. Was Mole low on gas? Did VNE want revenge? Did VNE have cramps and was in a bad mood? Maybe VNE had been getting thumped for an hour or so and desperately wanted a kill.
Lastly, Junky, what could you have done differently. There are two scenarios which caused you to be dragged to the 47.
1: you really wanted to fight the 38 and didn't care if you died. If this is the case you shouldn't have bothered to post this film. You got jumped and knew it was probably coming.
2: You didn't see the 47 and got jumped due to poor SA. If this is the case you shouldn't have bothered to post the film. Your SA failed you and you died......happens.
