Stop dropping FHs....

[Yarbles]

     
     Now when I only have 4 guys on in my squad, and we try to take a base, and I ask for the help of my countrymen and dont get any help, I have to "Bail" from my bomber to bring back what I need to hopefully take that base.  You will NEVER see me bailing out of a plane when there is an enemy on my six or close to me.

   

Then I would say you cant take the base. Anything else is just gameing. Agreed its a fault in the game that you can get away with this kind of thing but it detracts from the whole experience in my opinion. OK its your choice and there will always be someone who has this kind of view in the game.
 
I hope HTC finds a viable way to put a stop to this.

just the title of this thread almost makes one want to drop as many fighter hangars as one can.

 possibly a nice big mission to the front line bases...and drop whatever we can before we get kilt.


i like seeing those cartoon fires. they make it easier for me to navigate my cartoon airplane through the cartoon sky back to my cartoon base, so i can have some cartoon beer with my cartoon crewchief, then re-up in a cartoon fighter to go fly into some cartoon trees. 

Do you have a recipe for that?  All-grain or extract?  Ale or lager?

I would like to brew some.......

Steve....I dont know who the pictures of the fighter is but it is surely not me.

You might be famous, but its like DrDeath famous, nobody likes you

I dont think you are on anyones favorites list either JunkyII from what I hear.  You are just one that likes to point the finger at someone when you dont get your way.  I read another thread posted on the forums and you pointed the finger at Jokers Jokers....so grow up!

some thrive on that.

there's an entire squad that thrives on being disliked.

I foresee 15 - 16 pages on this thread. Any bets?

Glad I didn't.

Glad I didn't.

it hasn't made 15 yet.

So you will kill a fight, whether the guys in the fight want you to or don't want you to?  Do you even check with the crowd before doing so?

First, it isn't like "the group" is an organized group of people all after the same thing, it's not as if one "group" contacted the other "group" and said, let's fight here!  Second, I would say 9 times out of 10, if you ask a group what they want bombed at a base, not a single person will answer.

I really don't know why it's so hard to understand what the point is of this thread.  Like most, you've totally missed it by a mile.

Here is the point of this thread written as simply as possible, hopefully after this people will get the point.

Group A is mad at Group B because Group B is not playing how Group A feels they should.
Group A then flies to where Group B is having fun dogfighting with both sides not making any attempts at a base capture
Group B sees Group A flying towards the fight in bombers and asks Group A repeatedly not bomb the bases where the fight is taking place
Group A ignores the requests of Group B because, after all, Group A knows what's best and only their way of play is allowed in their eyes
Group A destroys the hangers at the bases and the fight ends and Group B's fun is ruined because Group A are a bunch of tools
Group A now proudly proclaims they've killed the fight so now Group B should help them win the war by taking more bases because in Group A's eyes, this is the only way to play
Group B tells Group A to twittle off.

That's the point of this thread, not whether or not you should bomb a base or capture one.  It's all about being cognisant of other player's play style and respecting it and not intentionally going out of ones way to ruin another groups fun just because one group feels that the other group shouldn't play that way.


ack-ack

I see exactly what you're trying to make the point of this thread to be...  However, 1. There is no group A or group B, we're all on the same side, but people get enjoyment out of this game in different ways.  You can't get mad at a bomber pilot enjoying the game just because he doesn't get enjoyment out of it the same way you do.  2. He does not go on a bombing run because he wants to ruin the game for other people, that's just absurd.

Anyway, how often does taking down the FH really kill off a fight?  A bomber usually has to make two passes to take down all the fh, that delay will leave the FH down for around 10 min.  A good back and forth fight between two bases doesn't get killed in 10 min.

This is with all do respect gentlemen. <S>

on your point 2, you're wrong.

there are some that do just that. they will drop a cv, in the midst of a huge furball....then they jump on 200 bragtging about their skillz.

It's usually a pretentious little lager.

Currently, I am set up to brew up to 15 gallons per brew session.

Will the equipment that I have work?

Poor effort.  I'm in the fighter. You were in lancs.  I killed your drones and you bailed from the third plane.

You will NEVER see me bailing out of a plane when there is an enemy on my six or close to me.

I posted film and screen shot of you doing exactly that.

OH Snap!
