If you can't avoid the HO you're right, it's because there is a noskill dweeb involved in the encounter.

Where you are mistaken is which of the two is the noskill dweeb.

2 weeks in here. First thing you notice is WOW the guns. I found after 18 hours or so is that the KILLER guns are an illusion.

Yes they kill very well, but the first couple of days your getting whacked in the middle of evasives. And you say WTF ?? As a bunch here told me, the timing here is different. You think your getting whacked in evasives where your really getting whacked before you initiated them :)

2 weeks in, I'm getting pinged now instead of plastered :D

Well..............I still get plastered, but not with the same frequency ;)

Hardest thing for me to get used too besides the timing, is the enemy con icon disappearing anytime it comes in contact with any part of your plane. Canopy supports etc. Haven't gotten used to that yet, gonna take a WHILE. Fuggin blinkin cons....

Good sticks here too. Lotsa um.

Caught one sleeper in two weeks. God I love those..

hello and welcome 2wktrial:

Dont sweat the HO thing, there is not one single pilot in this game that has not been involed in a Ho, and if any pilot tries to tell you other wise, well they are either lieing or have never flown a plane in here. It is very simple, you see the icon 5 to 6k away, and he see you. you head towards him, he heads towards you, next thing you know, your in a HO. I never worrie about it any more, I try to avoid the Ho as I know what my chances are of coming out of it in one peice are, but some times you Ho and some times you avoid it.

Now as for anybody making comments about other planes, say the Nik/Spit noskill pilot remarks. well now you know what plane this person cant fight against. I my self onnly use the Nik when defending a vulched field, it gets up faster then other planes and can start turning right away. the spit I fly alot. And as what planes anybody else flies, I dont care, I will win or lose, but will not call somebody a noskill pilot or dweeb because of what plane he flies. fly what ever you like and dont worry about remarks from others for what you want to fly.

well once again, welcome to aceshigh, have fun.
