Personal Vendetta - Specific Planes
« on: February 08, 2012, 04:15:21 AM »
Might be weird to ask but thought it might be an interesting topic.

I'm not a very good fighter pilot and I know it but I have learned with time and experience and help of others and improved. For the longest time I was easily getting smoked by specific planes and didn't matter what I did. I had not figured out how to handle the different situations,certain planes abilities and how to counter them to at least give myself a chance. During that time I swear I have developed a personal vendetta against certain planes that drove me up a wall!
  • F6F - Drove me up a wall and I called them "flap tards". Annoyed the heck out of me. Tossing their flaps. I always blew it. Didn't matter. I figured the guy was sitting there saying 'look at me - I'm a big ole fat plane and I can turn and loop and blah blah I'm like a butterfly!' Hate them!
  • Yak - No idea why I have it out for them but I think I just dislike the name. Or someone drove me up a wall one night and now I have this desire to hunt them down when I see them.

Just two for me. I'm not including the planes the are used a lot to HO or BnZ and runaway. To me its a certain plane that I see and will skip and easy kill (or what looks like one) and I rather go after these two.

My question does anyone else have it out for a specific plane? Just can't stand it? Why? (Outside of the typical HOtard and BnZ run away people)

109K-4. Because 109 is the main enemy of a Spitfire and a K-4 because it is the 109 equivalent of a Spit14. Another reason why I love shooting them down is because they give me the most trouble.

Brewster

The good thing about the Brewster is that you can just ignore them and they'll never catch you. Don't even have to run, just cruise to your original destination looking for less annoying targets.

If you concentrate on things the way you say... your going to killed going for the F6F who might not be as dangerous as one of the other planes. Determine first which one is most dangerous to you and kill him first unless the situation dictates otherwise (like goon killing).

Personally I could care less if a base gets taken. Three lanc kills are worth more to me than a base but if I can kill the goon and still get three lancs...

That said:

262s are always saying "hey look at me!" Shoot them. HO them. Whatever shot you have. They deserve it. No exceptions.

Bombers that get "gamey" and try to warp their drones into a collision... they have to die. Warping drones suck. Its like bombing the indestructible to mask manned acks. You do that you deserve whats coming. It should be an arena rule to pig pile warping drone pilots. No exceptions.

Spit 14s because aside from my wingman no one knows what they are doing in a Spit14 and they deserve to ride a wingless plane down. No exceptions.

The situation does matter and I won't chase a F6F that is 5k away when I have lower cons near me that could take me out. If I had a choice between an F6F, Pony or 190 I'm going after that F6F most likely. Not like I fly around hunting them and them alone.

Brewsters - flying weedwacker with guns. Bzzz Bzzz Bzzz - lol.

P-51Ds because they are by far the most common fighter in the MA, yet the plane whiners persistently give it a free pass.  Also it is worth gobs of perks when you're in a Mossie.

Sound advice unless you're fighting other planes.
