Before this becomes a ho thread let me say this I personally love the fights to be clean and let acm do the talking.  Most of the time I win and some I lose.  Tonight I met a guy named Jumper and everytime he hoed/rammed you with his hurri 2c.  If you tried to break he'd push his stick down left or right and spray.  This happen on 3 consc. sorties and he hoed/rammed squaddie's as well.  I had to get off to go to bed anyway but it leaves me disguested with the game.  You have so many to put up a good clean fight and some that ruins the game. 

Is it his $15 dollars - Yes

he can do what he wants - I know

Is he and some others destroying the game - Yes

I get my butt handed to me back some a lot in duels.  Tonight me and TJ done some duels in the DA and I lost 90% of them and I love that as it helps me to learn. 


I guess my point in this thread is why do some pay $15 dollars a month to up a plane to ram, then up another plane to ho/ram again.  Is there a point in the game to do this if you have no concept of getting better/improving in the game.  What's the reason if there is no room for improvement why would you even play?


Answer this question only and I'm going to start it off

To make me ask questions - Yes  :lol


There are a lot of motivations in the MA. A fair fight is not always near the top of the list for many folks. This guy could have been vulched 7 times in a row and he just wants to see something blow up other than himself, so he will do what ever it takes to get a kill, revenge, piss someone else off, etc... 

I love the fair play, pass head-on so both planes start equal, Dueling-arena, kind of fights. Many in the MA will engage in that, but 50%-70% of the time you will get HO-ed. The issue is that with a fake "war", vulching, picking, scorers, base taking, carrier hiding, etc, all going on the MA it's not the best place to expect fair fights and honor code. Nice when it happens but you just can't count on it. The rule of the MA is there are no rules.

I know you spend time in the DA at Furball lake. Perhaps you could organize some of those folks over to one of the DA fields for rolling 1v1s, 2v2s etc. since this option is available I've found I complain less about the MA antics because HTC has given us the tools to create our own environments where we can play by any rules we choose. It's easy to take off in the MA and hope you find players like you, but hope is not a plan. Planning takes a little more effort, but it's probably worth the investment if the MA ho-baggers won't let you have fun.  I'd be happy to join a DA group anytime. Send me a message if you see me online.  :aok

:salute

I dont think some people get what you were saying TN but as you know i hate being deliberately hoed or rammed lol and i always say summat about it hehe but anyway my bug is that even the good sticks resort to lame tactics especially in the da, But the most annoying part is that when theyve been lame they then open up with the "easy" or "pwned" lol that just makes me fall off the chair laughing hehe.
I would love to have H2H back so that serious duellers can get in there and have some proper fun like trying for 5 mins to get on each others tails or looking for the illusive kill shot.
Of course then you would also have the ability to rmove those who think just killing is enough and have no concept of the "sport" of comabt flying, Anyways im off but ill be in the da later moaning and whining and crying etc etc because im just an easily pwned noob  :joystick:

Have fun all  :salute

When I die bury me in a P38.

I watch day after day, week after week, tour after tour, the Bishops and Rooks take bases and win maps while the Knights stand there with their thumbs stuck in their butts. It's just pathetic!
