.... Now, when being chased by the horde, ya, I will extend till only one is left or help comes to even the odds a little.
... I ain't stupid though, I won't go round and round against a zeke or anything.
with all due respect....
this is why you will never get good enough to be dangerous...
ego aside...this is not about ego...or who is best or better or whatever...
I am talking about straight up flying a virtual plane..... a fighter plane...... in a fighter game....
I would think one would want to become as good as one can be....yes I know some only play to be around friends and never aspire to be very good....if you are one of those who are like that...then nothing I say will help at all....
if you are a fighter....someone who wants to be the very best he can be....who wants to be known as "dangerous"...in this silly little game....
then you are going about it the wrong way....I hate saying the words "trust me"
but I am here to tell you the only way to become the best you can become is by never running....never RTBing until you have just enough fuel to get home or no ammo....
forget about your score...stop worrying about dieing...(I mean it is kinda silly to worry about dieing in a combat game)
fight every fight that comes your way no matter the numbers...
this will give you SA that is off the wall....it will sharpen up your timing....it will give you HO avoiding skills....will teach you every nuance of the plane you are in...I suggest pick one very capable plane and fly to the biggest red dar there is with the least amount of green...come in between 10-15 k (there most likely will still be higher enemy) fight aggressive..... but smart...watch for the guys that try to climb out and get ALT on you....
I have been flying this way for 10 years....
it never gets stale...every fight is different....the "war" game is the same every time..the buildings never move....when you attack 5-10 people alone and more........the adrenaline rush is truly the only reason I play.....I get that every time I fly...
I have had some pretty awesome complements in my days of AH far more complements then rage pms and accusations of cheating...which have been many hahaha
when you switch to a new country and someone says..."INK damn I am glad you are green"
you know you have been doing it right.
just my thoughts on the matter with all respect
