Guess I'm gonna have to take a break
« on: March 06, 2022, 08:15:05 PM »
I havent really been playing that much.. to much work going on. When I get to play. I get maps like BowlMA that take up the whole weekend with slow long boring asss fights. I fly a 20 minute sortie only to instantly die twice to ack tonight from 1 bullet. I get 3 miles from the ship going 335 mph doing evasives, and instantly blow up. The 20k p51D that dives on me gets the kill as im dodging him near the field and the ack isnta blows me up. I cant continue to waste my time. Maps like bowl MA are completely a waste of time. Thats why only 100 players are on this weekend. It's not worth my time to fight ack more than the damn players. Maps like bowlMA and crater are destroying what is fun about this game. When bases are 25 miles away it's a total buzz kill, what do you expect people to do during the time it takes to get to a base? Sing kuumbiahh together, only to die instantly to ack from 3k away going 350 mph. Then the other time it's gang 4 on 1 when ever possible and people wonder why people only fly P51s and run.... I'm not going to spend 20 minutes to fly 25 miles to a base to instantly die to stupid bellybutton ack. Just not fun. When only 100 players fly on the weekend, it's because of the stupid bellybutton maps. I'm just wasting the short amount of time I have to play video games flying to a base. It's too damn slow on these big maps. Really not having fun playing video games anymore. Too much insta death after I plug a plane with 20 20mm in a cross shot and only get their gear. in other games I got poeple shooting me in the back every time I get a spot. Same crap where I shoot them 49 times and they don't die. Idk, I'm just not having fun playing video games right now because my efforts get short circuited with BS that pisses me off. I'm gonna have to take a break because it's just wasting my time and pissing me off with this dumb crap.

Lets get this straight, there is never one ship, its either 3 or 6 ships. And those ships are covered in a bewildering amount of guns whos singular job is to destroy aircraft.

And yet you are surprised that when you get within 3 miles of said ships you die?

It's a massive shame, 15 minutes of hitechs time could really make the game a whole lot more enjoyable for us. Fuggin guy doesn't give a dang anymore. Shameful.

You should let Violator show you how to fly a fighter

In the meantime you can stfu

Ack is overkill here to give those who can't fight a place to hide

That's where the most fun is Bopgun. Wish there was fights like this all of the time I could join in when I don't have long to play. Really bored of flying far distances and getting alt for maybe 3-4 sky high P51s or the gang mob when it takes 20 minutes of my time and dont really have other friendlies around. These huge maps don't bring the fights in the off hours. There is no choke point and everything is scattered. I cannot go across the map to fight because it's 10 sectors. I've already switched for the night to help the bish getting double teamed, then the rooks finally decide to attack the knights and the bish are left hanging with no one to fight.

I am just frustrated with video games, it's not just AH. I guess I'm just not patient enough to sit around, and am too competitive which makes it stressful when BS kills me and they should have died. It seems like my  bullets don't register and I'm left asking "how did this guy not die" and when I spend too much time floating around or not getting the kills I think I should get, and die too easily on top of it. I get frustrated and feel like it's just a loss for me.

More fights/kills there in an hour than all week in MA

I'd love to guys, but unfortunately Mondays are a tough night for me to fly.

I know it's hell of fun and definitely one of the best parts of the game. I'm glad you guys have kept it going.

I don't have much trouble dealing to either of you. But I guess that's because my panties aren't bunched up in my crack ;)

I mean before you go you can coordinate with me and I will get you some great fights started. I'll get a base push working and we will invite on 200... That's always one way to get the fights going....
