Current 190 pilots
« on: January 19, 2018, 11:53:56 AM »
Timid has a new definition with the current 190 pilot in the game. Its sad that their are a couple 190 pilots that can watch while I kill all their buddies. Couple days ago one bush 190 pilot started harrasing me during my climb out during take off. He would only engage while I was fighting another bad guy. Long story short I killed 9 of his buddies and he vulched me during the landing.

To me it sounds boring to have a 9kd if your kph is .0000013.

With our current 190 guys I have zero fear.....

You guys need to step up your game and get into the fight.

Learn the art of fighting with a disavatage and use the climb rate of the 190 to sucker guys into a vertical scissor fight.

People in this game realllllly are scared to get into a fight. 

Maybe making kills/time a larger factor in score would help.  To fly like that usually tends to be a score potato, and that change in scoring would hit them right in the shorts.  New players probably wont pay $15 a month to chase pansies around.

Guys gotta go full retard a little more.. I can give lessons on it if needed.

190 do seem to be grouping more of late.  When they get greedy though and try to turn with their target, most are easy kills.

Yes the Dora's pretty prevalent now and most only seen hovering around fights or popping back into icon range to check the relative energy states. Must save a lot of tedious learning of ACM to comply to a simple flowchart. I don't see the fun in it but winning isn't especially important to my hobby.

Only thing about penalizing the kills / time thing is the off-peak crowd. I bail half the time after chasing radar bars with no joy.

As I've said for over a year now. The 190D is one of the best planes in the MA because of speed, accel, and roll rate. If you don't feel like actually flying and fighting your way out of trouble, the 190D is perfect for that. It promotes running and ganging because that's the main strengths of the plane.

Eny should be lowered to reduce so much usage. If you look at the overall #s it produces in the MA, you can see that it actually does effect gameplay, and encourages timid flying being that's it's best strength.

Aggressive pilots should be rewarded. Overall quality of the game would go up.

I totally understand that a 190 or 51's need to be flown with some advatage. It's just sad to see these birds without good deadly guys behind the stick.

I try and fight to gain a advantage or beat someone with a wicked reversal or snapshot. It would be hard for me to watch one guy kill my team mates while I sit at 12k looking down.

And yet... many people get bent out of shape when that 12k 190 comes down to help his buddies.

Just can't keep people happy no matter what you do unless everybody breaks off with their assigned dueling partners to fight fairsies.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know EXACTLY which bish 190 pilot you are speaking of either.

And lazer is an expert at going full retard. He has the helmet and drool guard to prove it. He even announces it on vox before he flips the switch.

Quality of player is the reason. Long are the days of the sissor masters of old, gone.

I think you are being a bit JUDGEmental about 190 pilots, I die in my Dora a lot. But then I could care less about my K/D or score. I will say though it is hard to pass up a big hanging target and screaming in and picking them.

I can understand that....from BOTH POVs. Most want the fight on THEIR terms and the Dora is a plane that can dictate its own terms better than most. I cant fault  wanting to stay alive...you are no help if you are on climb out all the time. Seriously though, some of the OTHER players have more to do with Attitudes and Game play styles than a class of aircraft does. Its pretty discouraging for a player who wants to fly as per the strength of his/her plane. You are spammed on 200 or PMed to no end. Want to effect game play, start telling these type to knock it off when they start this crap. We all know who I am talking about as well. Spamming 200 calling players POS, Hos and runners doesnt lend itself to good game play either,IMO  I tend to give what I get, and most of the folk I fly with are like minded. Just saying.
