seen it in H2H maps, some of the most godawful un-creative maps ever, i think you will get more out of this game if you play it like Chess and less like Quake.

BTW, when Quake came out i was one of the highest ranking players in our local area, and had a "clan"  but I dont play AH like I did quake. nad its funner that way...actually if you want to play AH like ANY FPS, play it like You would play Rogue Spear.

TheWobble, you do understand my reply was meant to be sardonic and sarcastic.

LOL! <S> Wobble.  (Image removed from quote.) I've seen people do a 180 on here before. Actually I think it's a bit like Monopoly. We acquire realestate thru hostile take over. Very much keeping with the times.  (Image removed from quote.)

I enjoy reading the boards from time to time.  The discussions never change (lol).
Sometimes ya need to take a break from the game to cool off, I know I have before. Bottom line if you are paying like me do whatever flying or dweebing tactics you want to.  The disagreements are so broad here it proves this game offers something for everyone. Some nites I fly like a handsomehunk quaker but most the time I would be called a runstang dweeb, agian to each his own.  The only thing that I despise are the alleged limp dick, insecure gotta hack to win morons that are out there, oh again to each his own stick with the game it is a safe addiction.

well... leaving mustangs out of the equation... the truth is that AH players are some of the most timid I have ever seen.  Way too many never engage unless they have a distinct advantage and then run the second they lose it.  Gutless and unrealistic.  Plus... they will limit their ability to learn.  I know several pilots who try to appear at a disadvantage simply to get a fight.  they are glad to have the alt disadvantage feeling that the guy has to come down to kill em.   Still... It's frustrating when someone is so timid that they spend 5 minutes making "smart" attack on you from an advantage and then bug out the second you are at co E or better.

I think we all have more respect for the pilot who gives a good account of himself and dies than the one with the high K/D ratio that never engages except in absolute safety...

 surely we could put up with a couple of these girly men but AH seems to be rife with em lately.   Something is making people behave this way... It needs to be adjusted.

I don't know where you guys have been playing but if you want the "Furball 'O' Matic" it is on here. What the are you guys talking about really. Every time someone tries to take a base there is a fur ball over it. Sometime BIG BIG ones with no way of avoiding a fight. It sounds like what you don't like is not having the advantage and having the guy get away. Oh no that's terrible. If your talking about individual encounters one on one then that's life on AH sorry. Go up at that field that's getting attacked and jump into the middle of it. I really like to see a guy fly a plane to it's fullest even if that means he wins or gets away. I salute them. Great fight. You flew your plane smart and well. Anyone that has fought me can tell you I'm not afraid of getting into the middle of it. Just ask Weave, BUG322, Sundog or any number of others. But I tell you what I will try to get the BIGGEST advantage I can before I start. I don't like getting shot down I like to win. The thing that drives me into a disadvantage dogfight usually is boredom. I get tired of waiting for the advantage and say screw it. Some people don't. Oh Well!
