Why Are People Fussing About 262's?
« on: June 15, 2014, 12:23:56 PM »
What's got everyone up in a bunch about 262's lately? Seems like everyone that even thinks about upping one gets roasted on 200 and in PM's (Which is funny for the most part). Nothing wrong with other guys bringing out the hair dryer if they're paying their $14.95 each month.


I say if you got the perks to up a 262, then go ahead and do as you please with it.  :old:


Don't wanna fight a 262 for long? HO it! That usually ends up with a flaming 262 briquette and some rage PM's.  :banana:


Hate 262's? Don't get shot down by one. Did you know that the leading cause of death in Aces High is by another player attacking you?  :eek:


Lastly, hate the plane not the player. Aint our faults that the darn thing gots a ton of speed!  :bolt:

Where is that 262 pilot flying his plane?
-around a bigarse horde of red? Hes doing it well! Fussing is just the primary reaction of the hordelings.
-in a situation where there arent many red guys? Let him waste his time and land 2-3 kills after flying for 30-35 minutes.

Any questions?  ;)

262s were cheap. There were 2 of them interfering with base taking plans. I launched mine to try and kill them (I failed in that regard). Stumbled across this guy at 15k picking on bombers and unwary fighters. I killed him while I was in a full red out with negative Gs. This was the congratulations I got.

After responding, I got another, more nasty PM.  :)

I'm going to have to test this later today. Wonder if I can convince some fellows to do a 262 raid with me  :devil

Saw some raging on 200 because of you flying a 262 and vulching them. Solution, up a wirb or OST and have a friend as bait  :D

I almost got a good shot at a 262 yesterday in a P39D.  I wonder how many perks that would have gotten me if I could have pulled around just a little quicker.

After upping a 262 the other day, it was only after I got 5 kills that two of the players I killed upped 262's to come get me. :uhoh

But they upped from the base that I was around, and that was rather silly, and they both ended up blowing up! :banana: :banana:

It was a rather fun sortie, I was going for 20 kills but I was HOed by Mossie and had to land 14 kills with some damage instead.  :bhead

I dont fly them but they add excitement to the game and are a good thing.

If your in bombers and you go up against a skilled bomber killer in a 262 you have a serious problem. There seem to be much fewer of those in todays game. Nowdays I see players do all kind of dumb things in 262s.

I LOVE taking out the Deuce!   It's such a different animal that one you master it--then it's addicting.  I've had MORE FUN flying deuces in the last couple of tours than anytime in the last 30 tours. :aok

I even lost one last night.  Most fun I have ever had losing 200 perkies -- and it never bothered me.   :cool:    They'll make more.   :cool:

No more that if you'd shot down a Spit16. They're both 5 ENY if I recall correctly.
