if your Kill/time ratio is poor ie u need alot of flying time to get kills, it will affect your fighter rank. Same applies for GV and attack rank.

well i dunno about getting into the top 50, but i did check some "top" contest participants...200+ hours. :confused:  That equates to a full time job with overtime. Wow. I'll take my highly volatile but inconsistent ;)  score I guess.

No, it's saying that he's so terrible that he can't. You don't need to be good at all.

N8 has a low k/d, lower k/t, even lower k/s, and low hit %. All signs point to wuss pilot. Oh, and he has 0 attack sorties.. rank well? not a chance.

Dedicated time is important factor, but not a single.

This is true. I ranked about 5th in January(?.. maybe Feb), and flew about 40 hours.. that's not a whole lot of time online. You don't need to fly all day to rank, you just need to be a dedicated wuss.

40 hours? An hour a day, maybe 2 hours on Sundays.

Thats my point.  Well acually, if your kill/time ratio is really, really poor then chances are so is your hit%, k/d and k/s.....which kinda precludes this whole argument.  Anyway, on with my point.



See, if pilot A can fly 20 hours, get a 10:1 k/d ratio, 10 kills a sortie, 25% hit ratio and 10 kills per hour, thats 200 kills.

Pilot B could fly 200 hours, get a 5:1 k/d ratio, 5 kills a sortie, a 12% hit ratio and 5 kills per hour, thats 1000 kills.




Who would say flew better and deserves the higher rank?  And if pilot B then why?

     Well you Golly-geen moron, if you noticed I said I wasnt very high in rank, and that my best was 75th. As fer wuss pilot, hmmm big dog you are talkin behind a computer, If I had a lower rank than you in this game then it would mean I have less of a life than you. Go ahead and act big and bad and when ur grandkids ask about what you accomplished in your life you can tell them that you had a better rank than N8DOG in this stupid little sim called Aces High. That should really impress them. Hell, you might even want to put that on your resume.

lol N8.

Hypocrite.  You accuse him of playing a 'stupid little sim' yet you play the same game?  Funny!  

Your attempt at mocking and/or controling others' time in AH is pathetic and isn't constructive and certainly isn't necessary.

Don't waste your energy getting mad at your score as wetrat pointed out... as you indicated earlier before editing your post, score means nothing right?  

So carry on, have fun, and stop complaining.
