I still play because now and then the game looks right and all the history I've read over the years sneaks into the cockpit and for those few moments the game sucks me in.  My imagination gets jumbled up with all the stories and it almost feels like I'm there.

Having friends in the game that get that part and at the same time keep it in perspective and have fun makes it worth it.  Nothing like a couple of Headhunter 38s winging up and rolling in to a fight. :aok

I used to play to take bases, found a more competive aspect in the game by using ACM to shoot other planes down :aok Anyone who thinks you cant find any good fights on every sortie, your flying wrong then I normally lurk on the out skirts of hordes to drag a few out to fight them or fly with my sqaud and ask them to stay out if its a good fight.

Wmaker, did seem like you may have been running low on fuel but still a very pathetic show of your flying which I know is better then that....you could have broke off once the other 2 jumped in

I didn't see him do either in the film. I did see him express his disappointment at how the fight went. Then I saw wmaker being rude and trying to bait him into a whinefest, which didn't happen.

He wouldn't have heard a word from me had he stayed silent. There's no need for him to start telling me how to fly. I made the dicisions to engage at any given time. As for the whine fest, this very thread was started to have an opportunity to whine about my flying. Ohh, but snaphook isn't whining...he's just "expressing his dissapointment regarding my flying". :rolleyes:

Bragging about "setting up" a guy in an inferior plane show a lack of virtual stones.

Like I've already said, I was curious if I'd hear from him on Ch200 and he delivered, a whole thread's worth actually. :rofl

Too bad, I really thought our Finnish contingent had more class than this.  :frown:

ohh brother :rolleyes:

Had he come straight after me he would have easily had his fight. Now he decided to convert his speed back to altitude.

I couldn't care less what you or anyone else thinks about my flying. I don't fly for you or anyone else, I fly for myself. I'm not here to please you or anyone else with my flying.

Certainly I could have broke off but saw no reason to do so at that point as all I needed was couple passes. At that point I knew that I could almost glide in for landing.

...and that right there makes you (and the whiney clique of this thread) rather clueless.

I guess I should have just ran myself out of fuel to please the peanut gallery.

Who are you to tell how wmaker or anyone else should fight on MA? You arrogant POS. Wmaker had no obligation to do anything but get another kill for the sortie when the opportunity came. Period.

The only reason the fight lasted as long as it did was because I deliberately held back at beginning not to steal his kill.

easy killer.....I stated an opinion, not telling him he should fly a certain way, if I want to change how people fly all I can do is persuade, WMaker has his mind already set about this arguement so Im just gunna say his flying is weak just like yours.....Are you gunna tell me what I can post in this bbs now? I think only HTC can do that :aok

And by what measurement is our flying 'weak'. I'm 100% sure you wouldn't have walked away from that fight. So basically you're just padding up the other whiner.
