hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
when i first started playing this game i was told by a long term player that "if you chose up it expect some else to choose to down it". he stated this in reference to my biotchen about being bombed to pieces after i upped an PT boat in an effort to learn how to launch missiles and aim and fire torpedoes. now where i had chosen to do this was actually over a full sector away from the nearest enemy base or fight. a lone fighter/bomber happened along carrying extra eggs as i was sitting there minding my own business, and pop I'm in the CV P.O.ed that i couldn't be left alone.
my point is that the statement that the long term player made sank in and i realized that this IS a game, that it IS based upon yours/your opponents intended destruction of whatever ride you/your opponent chooses to up. the entire purpose and driving force behind this game is to seek out your adversary in what ever ride he has chosen to take and send him forth with back to the tower to receive his warm cup of coffee and a brandy new nicely polished ride of his choice.
if that is too much for people to handle or understand then those people should return to first person shooters that they can set the difficulty level to wussy on.
had i been in the jeep i would have baited the 262's and hoped to get one of them to auger in while trying to kill me! the bragging rights of killing (not vulching) a 262 while in a jeep would be monumental!! and you could probably make a reasonable bet that that film would definitely have made its way to the BBS.
by the standards alluded to by some in this thread i must call out to enemy bombers on 200 before engaging them, as we all know some of these bomber jockeys will start out 3 sectors back from the lines. what if they have been in the air for more than an hour, should i give them a pass? what about a half hour? how about 15 minutes? is there a reasonable time in which i must engage them after their take off?
you up it ill kill it! i expect the same from anyone who should encounter me out roaming around.
wanna go for a joy ride, well there is a car in the driveway. wanna play a game that is based upon the virtual destruction of you or your opponents ride? well then WELCOME TO ACES HIGH II
