Hoards
« on: August 12, 2009, 12:30:34 AM »
I saw the most disgusting hoard tonight I have ever seen playing this game. Tonight there were two bases close together. Usually, with close bases, you get some guys that fly low and start things off. Then, you get your next vertical layer another 5k up from that. Then, you get another vertical layer 5k above that. Etc etc, until you got morons flying above the clouds, then diving down looking for little black dots. Anyway, tonight, these two close bases had hoards each to their own and with only their "own" country men. Neither would venture to to the next closest base, just a few miles away. Let me explain again.

There were 20 green guys flying at their base, and 20 red guys flying at their base, but not a single one of them would venture forth to engage a fight. Each group of 20 flew over their base for at least a half hour, waiting for one single sucker to fly into their so well built hoard bee hive. Out of 40 people, meaning the two bases of 20 each, I was just about the only one who had the nerve to fly into the hoard and try and drag one out. Hell, I went into the hoard and tried to fight 5 or 6 of them at the same time. Everybody else just flew around over their own base and grabbed more E. Cowards. Nothing but cowards.

40 Fighters and I am the only fighting. Well, me and the other 5 or 6 guys chasing me. But then, actually, that really is just me fighting, isn't it? Cowards, nothing but cowards. Disgusting.

Bit of advice for everyone if there is a hoard over a base don't go there, we all all know which squads are doing this.
It funny,they are not going to score potato using me.
If someone is warping I do the same and go somewhere else.

There are no pies stored in this plane overnight

I guess it's time for me to log back in, and show you all how to take on the horde. It's pretty simple really.

 Step 1. Fly really fast into horde
 step 2 don't look behind you.
 step 3. burn all your E chasing a low set of Lancs
 step 4. pop flaps and spin in circles while multiple morons overshoot and auger trying to kill you
 step 5. return to tower, rethink your tactics, then repeat steps 1-4 because it's fun.

 :uhoh

Im assuming 90% of the people pictured above are having a hard time just staying airborne.  Probably a pretty easy crew to run through.

I gotta give them cred.  They found a place to dominate.  At least when the 14th guy comes into the fight they can honestly say, " I didnt call them in!"

Pretty standard operating procedure on Tuesdays.  Too many planes in small areas.  I don't know if it's worse for game play or my frame rates.  Probably frame rates though, yikes!

Sounds like a grade school dance.

Wasn't us.


Rooks had the ultimate hoard going to 122 last night. Wish I would have taken a screenshot. Wave after wave of the little buggers.

You're telling me that's the first time you've ever seen this?
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
