Title: My GOD, somebody just kill me!
Post by: yanksfan on July 31, 2007, 07:42:58 AM
Oh! They did!

Again and again, last couple nights i have completely forgotten how to fly!

Haven't flown alot in ma last couple weeks, did some gv'ing and bingo talent, not that i was a killer to begin with but every time I take a little break from the MA I get rusty as all heck.
 This time I have lost it all togeather.  This happen to anyone else? I'm suffering from a complete lack of confidence now. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

HHHHeeellllpppppppppppppp!:cry

Take 5 minutes before logging on and shoot drones off line.  You will be amazed at how your gunnery improves.  Won't help you saddle up, but when you do, at least your rounds will find the mark.

I've been having very little success in the MA's lately.  I'm afraid that my flying style doesn't match up with the way things work in there.

Can't say I'm too disappointed though, I'd be more disappointed if I was very good at (or even enjoyed) HOing, vulching, hording, cherry picking, etc. :)

Wish there were more ppl coming into AvA, I sat in there for an hour last night hoping something would happen.  Bombing sure is different in there ;)

At least we have FSOs and Der Grosse Schlag.  That's going to be awesome.

Should have waded into the MW arena ... the water was nice last night.

I think we missed each other a couple of times last night d0gma

I saw one one (probably you) and logged in, checked the roster, nobody...

I'll be in the AVA tonight around 8:00 CST if anybody wants an easy target that refuses to ho or vulch :D

Typical Muppet banter.    Why is it you Muppets have to spew your "I'm better than all of you" drivel?  

Yes the squad as a whole are top notch sticks but do you really have to smear it all over the BBS?    So your good at a computer game big freaking deal.

Post by: BaldEagl on July 31, 2007, 10:38:06 AM
I haven't landed a kill in 3-4 days now and I'm probably only averaging 1 k/s over that period.

I seem to go in streaks.  It's either all good or all bad.  Lately it's all bad but I'm sure it will change.  It always does.

Funny thing is that when it's all good it doesn't even matter what I fly or how I fly it and when it's all bad it doesn't matter what I fly or how I fly it.

Gotta say, I'm with you Heretic. The Muppet chest pounding has become worn and tired. I've got nothing but respect for an opponent who can kill me in 5 seconds flat but it quickly turns to disdain when the macho man "pwn/own" rhetoric kicks in.

Not to single out the Muppets here, but as of late, you guys seem to be honking your horns pretty loudly.

I get rusty after a couple of weeks off. This is especially bad news for me as my gunnery isn't particularly good to begin with.

i had only played 13 hrs this month all in the first couple days then maybe 10 mins the rest of the month. talk about horrible, but the map that has the 3 air fields in the middle helped. don't really like hanging in the middle just furballing but it did help with the number of targets.

Been there many times (PS the older you get the quicker you'll get rusty and the longer it will take you to get "it" back :D). DON'T get tempted to fly all shy and boring to prevent getting killed, mix it up in big furballs or outnumbered field defense down and dirty, that WILL get your SA and fighting skills up and running in no time.  :aok

Anytime you're feeling poorly about your flying yanks, just ask me to DA... after that you'll think you're the best ever. I can hardly even take off without augering. :)

Mark,

Name isn't Flakbait its Heretic.      

In person you may be a pretty good guy?  You wouldn't remember this but you and I had a long discussion in the DA where you helped me set  up my joystick.  At the time  I thought you were a pretty good guy.  Seems in here that you just like to stir the pot and get crap going.

3 seconds you think?   Maybe maybe not.  Even if it did take 3 seconds what would that prove?   You honestly think I'm going to lose sleep over a DA duel?
If it makes you feel more like a man because you got "mad skillz" then so be it.

Don't drag Dutchie down.  He actually is a nice guy.   1Sads is also another guy who is really good dude.  Him and I dueled and he taught me more in 15 minutes with the Spit 8 than I have learned in 3.5 yrs in game.

How am I going to drag Dutchie down?    

John is a great guy!

By the way, how did those settings work for you?  How is everything with yourself?

Settings work pretty good.  I will just never be one of the elite no matter what stick or settings I use.    Some guys are just born with it and others can develop the skills over time. Then theres the guys who are just mediocre.      

Take care man I appreciate the time you spent with me in the DA.     I said it tounge in cheek about Dutchie.    Just giving ya some crap.      

Take it easy and have a good one

Things are good here and thanks for asking.   Good looking kids you got there in the pic I saw of you.  I'm saying that in a fatherly way because I have kids that age as well.

I am very proud of them, they are great kids.  Daughter, 9, has been on honor roll since she started school, and she also won the local fishing rodeo this year.  After winning(Trophy, zebco 33, pole, tackle box, and tackle) she made a very funny comment to me on the way home.  SHe said, "well...........I never thought my first trophy would be for fishing."  She is a girlie girl with an appetite for adventure.  Here's a pic of her:

Yaaa  um......I think its been over a year (at least) since i've been "in" a spit other than the occassional 14. N1k=Maybe 5 times in the last year.
