You choose not to take certain shots.  That's completely up to you and more power to you.  Just don't expect the same from others in a combat arena or server.  The same goes for 'ganging'.   Mutual support of a fellow countryman should be expected from the opposition.

Or climbing over and gaining positional advantage.   But yes, you are correct.   :aok
trust me I understand it's part of the game...that's why i dont just sit there and take it (I manuever in order to avoid them and merge)....still tell them they shouldn't anyway...one because lame and two because it's not smart...again IMO

LOL That is what we called spits in H2H. We put new folks in them to get some confidence as that plane is so forgiving when you make a mistake.

So funny you should say that..... or do you remember?

The way I look at it...HO's are like playing first person shooters and you are not allowed to shoot unless you are in the other persons scope....just doesn't make sense.

But I do HO...when outnumbered, and someone willingly flies into my gunsight...I shoot:)   When we have numbers and one of us Ho's..well..Darwinism at work IMO. Why give them a shot they should never have.

There are so many good shooters in this game, I try not to make it easier on them.

I don't mind when someone tries to HO me.  It's an opportunity to turn the tables in the fight.  Quick last second climb over and you are in the advantage. 

It's a bit like bullfighting.



But just like bullfighting, bad things happen if you mistime your move.



Ouch.  :uhoh

If you can out-turn or out-fly the bandit the head on shot is the only one they get. Telling them not to take it makes for an easier fight.

Then they should learn not to depend on it....they will find IMO the best aspect of Aces High which is a white knuckle dogfight.

Shaming them for the shot doesn't help them stay long enough to learn anything.

"No need to HO"...my normal response via 200...if you consider that shaming then you are too soft to be playing a Combat simulator IMO.

Aren't you assuming that the HO was successful?
