it doesn't take a genius to read a map,  dar bars / flashing etc. 

I can smell a Bish goon from 2 grids away with nothing but a pencil and compass.

If someone wants to shell out $30 for a video game that cost $15 just to watch a map all day, so be it - they are funding the new toys the rest of us are getting in game while their skill level still sucks since they can only kill shades.

Me and Waystin get that same feeling, more of a dead hamster in a gym sock smell, sometimes it's just real obvious where the goons are coming from.

I admit with the squadies we have its one reason we are successful at tanking, you won't see just one of us, its all or none.
Lets be honest though, you just like hiding behind Hooter and snipe his kills :D

I've been watching Butcher's squad out of pure boredom of gameplay this past month. They seem to get together with the same mindset of reading the spawns. Setting up or possibly working for the advantage. Running supplies,scouting,spotting, and using the buddy system on bathroom breaks. Kudos to the experten camper always prepared. As for the look at me I'm uber from a 10yr player Really! <cookie pic>

#1funny thing about that fight, i was there for most of it and as there were a few guys who bombed gvs none came often.
#2 if your dumb enough to up from a camped spawn that has a 2nd spawn into the vary same field then you are asking to die. (they were spawning into our runway and had 2 spawns to choose from but vary few used the 2nd spawn point)
#3 later after our 2 guys landed there 100+ kills, no less than 7 sets of B17's at 14,000ft with several escorts (including a 262 or more) bombed every hanger on the SMALL field and the town, then launched a massive M3 run for the next 20min. we almost lost the field, but didnt.

imo it was a good job tankng, whith the 5second delay that we have of GV's spawning in, some tanks can get almost 2 shots off befor you are allowed to see them from your view. in retrospect if somone got 100 air to air kills you wouldnt ask or inquire "how many were joblow vs how many were Bruv" nor would you ask "how many were vulches from a deacked field with the VH down and no werbles out"

Furthermore The guy was sitting in the same spot in a tank for clearly a good amount of time. the fact he didnt get killed by bomb is amazing, and anyone who thinks its easy to do please post it to show us.

I say job well done! :aok and in another month or so it will be harder for you cuz ill be on the other side and i always carry a bomb with rockets  :devil
