When I started this game, for the first couple of flights I flew Hurri 1's and Spit 1's exclusively, thinking that this is the closest representation of a 'Level 1' in the game.

I died a lot.

I did the same thing, because I thought "man these things carry a lot more ammo, why would anyone wanna fly a plane with only 200 rounds?"  :lol

Well, I had a head start on the two of you, I had found out cannons did more damage than MG's am .50's did more than .303's, or 7.62mm. When I first saw those my reaction was "Who the hell puts 8 303's on a fighter?"

Priceless moment...

Going in to vulch a base, I decide "hey, I have bombs, let's try these!" Only issue, I was unaware that your own bombs could kill you if you don't pull up. ;)

I had too many issues with ordy... ;)

But, onto fighters, was in a decent sized furball in a, now I know, P-51, when I look around and see I'm the only "good guy" left, of course, I've shot about 3/4 of my ammo without a single hit, and over range, I hear "Trig, what plane you in?" I, at this time didn't know you could choose your plane, so I of course reply with "How do you find that out?"

Needless to say, I was esentially tared and feathered.

Asking for a Gunner, and receiving a reply from 83249220. Who promptly started emptying my guns, before I reached 3k. The "Hey WTF are you doing, HEY stop that, HEY, Hey you little bastage, WTF, Hey stop that", had no avail. I don't take joy riders now. :mad:

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

My favorite was:

On the VOX "Changeup...PLEASE STOP SHOOTING THE GREEN GUYS....SHOOT THE RED ONES, NOT THE GREEN ONES"

<PAUSE>

On the VOX "Geezus....why do we get all the newbs?....what a smokepole....."

On the VOX "I know man....doesn't he know he will shoot himself down?"

On the VOX "He doesnt have to worry about it...he's at 200 and still hasn't hit anything"

"Really??  lol.....maybe he will reload"

"He doesn't know what a reload pad is!"

VOX lights up with thunderous laughter and applause....

The game, by default, tunes you to channel 101.  And whether I did it or not (not knowing how at this point) I had squad highlight on.  So I was shooting at people on the VOX channel 101.

Lol, had the same thing happen to me when I was on an HQ raid. Only differenc was he started shooting about halfway there, and wouldn't stop. I'm guessing he was a spy looking for HQ raiders, and try and get em' killed since he left as soon as he depleted my nose gun. He basicly made that entire 1hr flight pointless since I didn't make it.

I did that alot too. I figured since their was 3 teams and i saw green for my side that red and orange would distinguish the other two. Many killshoots later I figured it out. :D

Lol first time I was in a squad, I was escorting. The con color changed and I mistook him for a knit and damn near blew his wing off.
