Title: Honor in AH
Post by: ink on May 26, 2011, 02:18:24 PM
yes it is still here  :salute

some seriously awesome fights last night....people staying out letting 1vs1 continue,  letting me RTB when Bingo....

one of the best nights I have had in a long time.

 :salute to all that I got in my guns and put me in theirs.




and a special  :salute goes to Lepape for some insanely sweet 47/190 flying......you made me work my KI like never before :salute

 I would word it good gameplay  ;) Glad you boys had fun. I need a night like that. :cheers:


I don't think I have it in me, just to let you rtb Ink. Maybe, just maybe if we're on the same side it would be considered. :devil

Its extremely rare, it still does happen, I forget who but someone got banged up few nights ago and said person was out of ammo, instead of picking the easy kill I let the person go home, think he was more curious why I did that then just shoot him down.

However its not all honorable, had someone whine on 200 to why I was running home rather then fight from taking ords down from a base, whine after whine when I had pretty much half a plane missing. I would of gladly obligated to dogfight with a fresh one, but some people's EGO just get the best of themselves.

Pure shame, sadly I found nicer people in the DA arena after a good duel then in the main arena where every excuse in the books listed to why someone got flamed.

I ran into ya last night Ink and you clearly could of had me a few times, only sorry I wasn't anywhere co-alt to engage ya, but you dented my paint and I will find your KI some day :D

Yeah! Had lots of fun yesterday too!  :lol
Toward the end we almost ended up having a bostonIII party in tank town with Juggler, trooper2 and me. I really felt you had quite some fun INK so in no way I would try to ruin that  :salute
Yes, honor is still there but only as long as you know who flies the enemy plane. It exists too in the DA but only if not a single Tempest is around.

Doesn't take much to get to that point, other then remembering you aren't fighting a real enemy, and it's just a game :)

Good to hear you had a good time :aok

2 days ago...Thing was in a hellcat, and Dolby in a spit8 they were battling it out for 5-8 minutes. And people who got near the fight got a nasty range transmission from me to stay out.  :lol


O and INK, it was funny watching u do some flybys in your ki84  :)

good game play may be another way of saying it..but....I think it went way beyond that...and some will say "good game play" is killing all nme cons with out any "fair fights"

which I obviously disagree with.

I agree with just about every thing you say here....except I really find quite a few guys who are truly out for a fight and fly Honorable.

yes I was ganged and HO'ed while being ganged.....but of course I put my self there and you wont ever hear me whine about it....I seriously just love to fight and last night there was some truly awesome fights going on

dood you are awesome in that Jug to bad she is such a fat brick...although you make her look like a graceful swan, very impressive flying, watching that video is one thing but to see it in person was very cool. :salute

lol ya I knew Jug was in a boston...I thought you were him so I ignored you....haha that was bad.

Doesn't take much to get to that point, other then remembering you aren't fighting a real enemy, and it's just a game :)

Good to hear you had a good time :aok

I have always tried to fly with Honor, unless there is a furball,(and total chaos) I stay out of 1vs1, will not HO(unless its a zero) in 1vs1's.

but you are right way to many people take this game too serious.

she is one of the baddest birds in the hanger, and usually makes very, very quick work of 47's.....no body in this game controls it like you do. at least no body I ever fought...and I think Ive fought about every one. :D

That was one 'ell of a fight, "STAY OUT! STAY OUT! LET EM FIGHT!"... and ...  "Dolby start doing some of that pilot chit".. "what pilot watermelon Jo, I dont have any"  :lol

I have a new found respect for thing, he came back not 5 mins later and put me down in 30 seconds :).
Reaper did pretty much the same thing and allowed me and JUG ro fight in our A20s, that was pretty fun, but sadly JUG didn't come back to the same area.

I had some of the most fun I have had in a long time last night. Flew with Silat in one LW arena and we had some great laughs. All the way to the point of tears for me. When he had to log I changed over to the other LW arena where more of our squad were flying.

We ended up at TT and fighting low n slow over the water. Was great fun.

I let off one N1K when I noticed his engine dead..... then proceeded to save Corky from that A-20 on his "12"  (sorry jug and Corky, it was one short burst for an assist but I must have hit the pilot) :devil . Yes we try to steal eachothers kills.While we respect most others, it takes a toll on the amount of respect left over for our own squaddies.  :rofl

np shuff, oh BTW it is a friggin B O S T O N  ! A20 is too easy for a dummy like me





There are some who fully understand what "quality interaction" in this game is, and the 80th is one squad fully aware of it!

I ended up in yours more times than I like! My fm2 and spit 8 served me decent though. That was fun though and most flew honorably.JuGgler was flying the "Boston"  (I called it an a20 and he corrected me!) amazingly well. Had some good fights with Banshee5 also.

Its good to know that there is still some Honor in the game...I cant say the same for a certain Rook last night that, after puttin on 200 I was Bingo Ammo and literally on fumes and just trying to land, vulched me as I hit concrete...I could see if they didnt have 200 tuned in but after asking who and why they would do such a thing I got the reply I figure I would. Still some uncool players in AH but guess they pay their $14.95 right?

It doesn't take much time to type a quick <S> on 200 to those who shot you down, or you shot down, on 200 after a good fight.

It cuts the vitriol in half.

TT is always fun as long as it's not severely one sided, alot of good fights and people willing to 1v1. Dweebery though, has been at a high lately and I haven't been motivated to play much at all.  :(

 agreed. i try to >S<  those who shoot me out of the sky ( which is alot )  but there are times where i either forget or i choose not too, example someone  interrupting a good 1v1. i'm teaching myself not to get upset on HO's or Picks ( both which are my fault ). i also try to ask if someone needs help in a 1v1, 2v1 etc....
  no one is perfect in this GAME myself included, i'll try to  put up a good fight if the odds are even or a little lopsided (3v1 or more), if i forget to salute  or not give a check 6 etc, please dont take it personally.  :salute
