Title: Is it just me or......
Post by: Flayed1 on April 15, 2006, 04:02:12 PM
Do the Auto acks on fields seem more accurate when you fly over in a perk bird than when you fly over in a non perk ride???     I can fly all over a field in an F4U D and just take pings and fly away with a few holes in my wings and what not rarely do I get blown out of the air.

 But the past 3 times I get an F4U-4 in the same situation and boom ack round right into the pilot, no other hits just boom blood and dead. Seems like the F4U-4 would be a harder target as I am zooming through much faster usually than the Dhog.  Maybe it's true, speed kills and I'm ramming the ack rounds :)

no, you just care more when you get hit in a perk ride and remember it :)

I remember  barely over shooting the runway in a 262, figured " no problem, I'll just turn it around here in the grass and roll back onto the runway" well turning around was no problem, but apparently there was a 2 foot tall curb on the runway, an the 262 couldnt get over it without blowing up. Never had any trouble like that in the free planes.

The ACK squad is the best squad in AH and they take real pride in getting all those perks back.  HTC gives them a monthly bonus if they hit thier target and that target is .......YOU :D

I dont even dare fly near cvs with a jet as every time get near a cv puff ack gets me.  Ive flown over my own base and a cv that is 6k off the coast will get me with its puff ack.  This is every time I fly near a cv in a jet, not once do I live in a jet near a cv.
