Title: Quick question?
Post by: C(Sea)Bass on March 05, 2009, 08:39:04 AM
Does anyone actually fight anymore?

Been 4 days since I last found someone who actually flew the freaking plane. Its getting to be a waste of money just to take off and get HOed by 20 morons in a row. Even the SEA has been invaded by dweebs.

back to topic,

what you need to inspire you cbass is to get some good one on one duels in the DA against someone vastly superior to yourself and give him/her your best ACM  ,  film it, ask questions and hopefully you'll be better for it  ;)

maybe you've hit a wall, where you just don't seem to do as good as you think you should be doing.

I do just fine. Just bored with the pilots here. They all go for HO, then I reverse, they die, no fun.

well thats why i suggested this,

doing just "fine" is your problem.  Sounds to me like you need to up the ante a little and fight someone considerably better than yourself  rather than getting bored beating 95% of the MA pilots.

look out for your squad fights in the SDL too, nothing more fun and interesting getting into 10 vs 10 merges.  ;)

The thing that gets me is there are three P-51s 3k above you and all three HO instead of maneuvering....

There are many out there who still desire a good fight.  It's just discouraging when you have to filter out all the ACM wimps.  Best bet is to pay attention to where the pilots who wish to engage are and fly for the opposing country in that area.

I would like to improve but as he said all you find is massive hordes and hos.When you do find a clean fight you get jumped.That is why I mainly stay on the ground.But even there you cant have a good fight without someone messing it up.I was into a good spawn battle that was pretty even and a blast.So what happens some idiot drops the hangars.Ground guys pretty much feel the same as furballers when a fun fight is ruined

I used to do alot on the ground, but my graphics stink so I am at a big disadvantage because my screen gets so choppy in ground mode.

Hard for me to find anyone to 1 v1 or duel when I don't have text ability too.

Seems to me most players are more interested in getting their name in lights than actually fighting someone. They HO 2 guys then run home.

I PRETTY much suck at gv'ing. but the battles that were fun for me were in tt on that map that has a big island in the middle. each country has a vbase that spawns to near it. trying to get into the town, and sneaking around between the buildings, trying to find the other guy before he finds you is what is a friggin blast...so much more so than spawn battling.
 the other one is when there's an attempted base capture. lots of gv's rolling into the town, and base, trying to do what's needed....and lots of gv's rolling from the base to defend the town. hig hid n seek game there too.

 i do agree...when some schmuck comes and ruins the ground battle in tt, it doew really suck.

I have found I am starting to enjoy it when I am out numbered. It has helped my flying/fighting quite a bit I feel. Yes I die but I get great satisfaction when I can maneuver and cause somebody to auger or kill shoot themselves. The only thing that really gets on my goat is when some con who has just got into the fight zone and steals the kill of the hard working horde I have surrounded :D

I can find a good GV battle 90% of the time, and i dont mean camping.  Every map has its little secret spots where neither side has an advantage, the BIG TT with the large city is my favortie by far though.
