Other than the HQ
« on: February 22, 2015, 09:18:05 AM »
I had a pretty good time. For the first time in years I flew a perked plane the C-Hog. Wow that will spoil you. I didn't get a ridiculous amount of kills, say like Rud3boi, in but when you hit them they knew it. I did lose one when I lost control, darn it! Seemed I forgot to let off the rudder pedals in the excitement.

Most of the night, between supplying HQ, Rude and I winged or were at least in the same vicinity. I tell you that was fun. I cannot describe it any better than that. The conversations, the headsup, and the oh so many kills Rude had. Many of them he didn't land, greedy rascal. But they were up there. As for me 2 per sortie seemed to be it for the night. We landed at I think 59 and were rearming, in comes a p47. You know it looks like he was targeting me. He's 5 k out, 4k, 3k, 2k, where's that clipboard! click, I'm outie. I saw thought that rockets would nail me before could get my shaky cursor on the exit. Rude was landing too. He quickly exits with 20 kills. He said a spit was about to vulch him. Wow I didn't even see the spit. He wanted to rearm!

Earlier the Rook defense had died down a bit and I was sitting in the tower wondering what to do. What the heck I'll drive an m3 with troops to 59. Many laughs from Rud3boi. However he rallies the countrymen and lets them know I am on my way. They start tearing down the town. I'm still coming folks! ITrollu asks if I want to hear what his wife is saying. Sure, "Tell him to stop making excuses" We all laugh at that. Well I'm pedaling as fast as I can.

When the Rooks see the town go down they panic. What lose a base?! so they start upping. Well that is what Knights want. Those guys never even got close to the town. Waystin nails one or two gvs with his b25 and then strafed the town. Finally I'm there and not a Rook near me. We get the base!

Late and late in the day, we head to 132 to see what the Bishops are up to. After nailing a couple of 26s I head to Rud3boi who seems to be heading my way. Well it seems a couple of guys he killed wanted revenge oh lordie were they after them, a K4 and an La 7. Sad to say all I could do was distract them a wee bit but a couple of other countrymen came to the rescue. I don't know how he survived that but he did. They had him front and back. You know he has a way of ticking off the red guys.

We land a few kills and then the HQ goes down. After resupplying HQ I call it a night.

68Zoom When HTC made the maps they didn't think dweebs like the 49'ers would keep hitting HQ. I hope next update something is done. BTW Sabot and I had a great time beating up the rooks. After the fight died on the rooks ended, I decided to check out the bishops. I came across a couple great fights there, one fight i killed sawzaw. This guy doesn't like to accept dying, so he comes back with an LA7 friend and tried to gang me but they failed horribly and got shot to pieces. I Rtb to my base and called it a night since retards like the 49'ers kept hitting our HQ. It sure annoyed the crap outa me but I can imagine how boring it was for them flying 6 sectors to 30K then bailing after. They kept repeating it over and over.

HQ and DAR not really needed to find a good fight. Just look at the map and you'll find clues.

At prime time yes.
During off hours, when often most enemies are tanks tring to kill a town, or high altitude bombers, hardly.
When you have only like 20 active players total and see bases flashing here and there without any vis, or suddenly have a factory being bombed, the situation is much different.

No, DAR is only for those that need to have their hands held.  The amount of crying over this is amazing.

Hope to be back on soon

...and the ignorance to the end affect it will have on the number of players is even more amazing.   

The real crying will start when there is no game to play because people quit on principle.  SMH

Pretty soon, you'll want Playstation arrows directing you how to climb, dive and fire your guns too...... :lol

The same people that will say the world/country sucks "because people have everything handed to them and don't have to work for anything" .....just so happen to be the same people crying over DAR in a game, because they don't want to "work" for their experience. 

Overcome.  Adapt.  This game is not one dimensional... and everyone who seems to be arguing about radar is making it so.

It is easy to find a fight in any aircraft, with any loadout, in any arena with any amount of players,  WITHOUT a bright red arrow pointing you to one.  But, it may take an extra 5 minutes... I guess the HDD kicks in for so many of you.

Cheers!

And when was the last time you played?

So this is where you ask to see my credentials, Fugitive?  Because the fact that I've been around since Air Warrior paying by the hour, through all the iterations of AH  has any effect whatsoever upon the topic?  Really?  That's your angle?  Ad hominem much?

So now every poster has to pull out their little AH card, stamped, to make a point? C'mon man, you don't need to be that guy.

It seems all the "fighter guys" just want to cry about the MA not being a bigger DA, but that's my opinion. You are free to disagree at will.  IMO radar is just another tool.  Have it or not, it doesn't ruin any of the fun that is this game.  All these folks claiming they're gonna quit because of not having pretty little dots to run after are acting like children whining about not getting the good swing at recess.   :salute
