JESTER, to settle our argument earlier...
« on: July 13, 2009, 02:06:29 AM »
Here's some pictures from the film that should clearly show that you initiated guns on the merge, not I. :salute
Notice my guns are still cold in these...

Your plane

It's the most, wonderful time, of the year. ;)

No offense but, I don't see the problem...he opens fire, do a little jig and light him up...but then I'm seeing a lot of people here that view HOs as noob tactics...for me it's better than giving the other guy an opportunity to get behind me...

Now when you learn a bit more about flying your plane you'll quit doing that and try to win a fight rather than just get a kill. New folks tend to HO because they know no other way. Once they gain experience then they learn to maneuver their aircraft to actually fight. At that point the real fun starts.

If it's your intent to just shoot someone down, then you have no reason to be upset.  If, on the other hand, it's your intent to have a good fight, then you are justified in being upset.  Getting to dodge a faceful of lead on the initial merge is unfortunately the chance you take when you engage someone you don't know or can't trust.  But then you shouldn't really be flying right at them, should you?

Notwithstanding the pilot involved (this is jester we're talking about!) if a P-40E goes up against a corsair, it's toast. It better HO while it can, because it won't make it very far past the merge.

As I told xtiger last night in the MW arena, it was amazing how quickly his kills stopped when people started to avoid his HO passes.

Hoing from noobs is NEVER an issue! I would say 90% of all successful HOs are from vet pilots who know better!!!and would complain about it if they lost  :rofl

Boxboy is the only one I know who "unabashidly" will HO with gleee, and never complains if it's done to him  :aok At least he'll admit it  :salute
Most of the heros in here use the old "high angle" excuse! Which is like saying "I just HOd him better use the standard excuse" so I can save face   :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl  Ahhh! priceless  :aok
