:mad: :confused:
-
Uh, I'm no computer expert by any means. But, do you think that sharing a connection like that "might" have something to do with it?
-
Of course not estes. It's everyone's fault but his own.
-
so??? you arnt the first person to lose a 262 and you wont be the last...quite whining and earn back those perks
-
If you play two multi-player games, online, at the same time. All bets are off, especially if you are using a home class router.
Most FPS games don't care if you drop a packet or two. Aces High does and for good reason. By the way, the server did not crash, or everyone would have gotten dumped.

Don't be silly, anyone with his command of the english language MUST be right!
-
Finally, a funny thread. I was starting to wonder.

if you can't afford the perkies, get out of the hanger

170 perks? that's all you lost?
sheesh. and I thought it was going to be some kind of tragedy...:rolleyes:

I like this thread... I feel it could benefit by the addition of my most recent ME-262 experience. After flying around for about 15 minutes, I was lucky to get one kill, then I died at the hands of a Niki who was surrounded at our field by about 8 of my teammates. I RULE! :d
Here I am thinking "maybe the HO ISN'T such a good idea, PULL UP!"

That was a close one!

Ahh, avoided the collision.

Buh bye...man the film viewer is awsome. Yeah, I'm just now figuring this out.
(http://www.matthoffman.us/dl/262-4.jpg)
There he goes, safely away and not a threat.

It was about a half of a second after this that the back half of my jet falls off and I explode. I only know this because of the film viewer. Online, I blacked out pulling up at the last minute 'cause I was about to run into him. I thought we collided...he must've dropped some rounds into me on his FE. Oh well, back to the Mossie, I'll have another jet to destroy in no time! :D

Don't fly a perked plane If you can't afford to lose the points.
-
Nice sequence SOB. My last 262 ride ended much the same as yours; i had buzzed around killing 2 or three unsuspecting planes then found buffs. As i closed on a 17, I lined up, steadied then pulled the trigger; closure rate was fast, way fast. I expected the 17 to explode, but something wasn't right, my guns had gone quiet. I quickly checked the ammo indicator, it was now zero and a split second later i rammed into the buff. pieces parts was the end of that run!
-
Used to be that a disco = half perk points lost.
Haven't seen anything to the contrary. Quit whining, it's only a game.
-
If they haven't changed it it was disco with no damage = 1/2 points. If you had any damage you lost 'em all.

Thats a good point.
If you only lose 1/2 points with no damage then why should you lose any?
-
:rolleyes: :lol :p
My take on perk points...don't need more than 100 to fly my F4U-1C and F4U-4. :D
Jets are for wannabes so stop whining about lost perks. :aok

Because the program can't tell whether it was a true disconnect or you pulled a griefer move by pulling the plug on your modem to avoid getting killed.
Jump in a Spit V or a Hurri IIc and you will have more than enough perks, in a short amount of time, to roll another 262 out of the hanger.
-
Yea, I did what bocko did recently...turned a nice Me262 into an air-to-air missile. Ammo goes quick in that ride
After a few days of C205 flying, I had enough for another.
-
Hell I lost 3 or so in the last month or so to CTD's (which thankfully I have sorted out now by adjusting RAM voltage). At least you got to see action :)
Fly an ENY 40 plane for the smallest country and you will have all the perks you ever need.
-
Hey i fly them and i crash them. no big deal just earn them back.
