Title: Funny things that happen ingame
Post by: Killer91 on August 03, 2011, 01:25:04 AM
One of the funnier things I've seen happen in the game occurred tonight. I was in the LW arena and upper a N1K to defend a base under attack from a cv. I climbed to about 5K and leveled out. When I got to the furball there was an enemy 262 diving in and out of it. So of course he's my first Target cause I like shooting down 262's. Once he realizes I'm fixed on him he turned and flew head on towards me starting at about 4K separation. He keeps on coming until I realize he's about to HO my N1K with his 262. So I put my sights on him and start firing at 1K. He pk's me with a tater but not before I de-winged his 262. But the best part was his whines on 200 complaining about the HO.   :rofl who HO's with a 262 and expects the other person not to fire. Especially when they're in a N1K Lmao!

Anyone else care to share funny stories??

i was flying against a p38, a well skilled member i should say (according to him), we went face to face, I turn to avoid the ho, he took the shot and called it a front 1/4 shot.  what can i say, except I killed him by ho'd several times after that and heard the whining about me having no skill.

but the funniest story I have is a guy killed my spit 9 two times in a row with his c47 by ramming me  :rofl.  but revenge was mine, I killed him with my 3rd spit  :D.  I still remember every time I think i have an easy kill.

I once stopped a 30 player mission with my .45 by hiding in the maproom and ambushing troops as th ey came in. They I ran out and hid before they started strafing. Great film. Laughed my butt off. Held them off long enough for our VH to pop and save the field.

Last tour, I crept up and hid beside a building at a large enemy airfield.

A huge mission of lancasters suddenly spawned right in front of me and I put a single bullet into the cockpit of as many as I could.

Since I always ride the chute down, I find myself at enemy fields shooting planes taking off pretty often.

We were in the process of taking a rook field several months ago near the center of the map.  While we were fighting in the air some knight brought in an M3 and claimed the base for himself.

That dude is the man!!!

I've gotten close enough to drop troops from a c47 while attempting to do that but someone always ends up shooting a few of them.

Kudos to the man for pulling it off.

Back when I was new to the game, RedDevil and I were up in B-17s doing some bombing.  We were in pretty close formation with my bombers below his.

Right after he said he was going to drop his planes exploded and he started cussing up a storm.  After reviewing the film it turned out that his bombs hit my aircraft which caused his to be destroyed.

In AH1, while flying a hog with rockets, I was frustrated that I could not catch a B-26 low over the water. I pitched the nose up ever so slightly, pickled off a couple rockets, and some seconds later, splashed the bandit at 2.5k ahead. Friggin cool in my book.

Another time I did a bomb toss from several k away from a group of flaks at a gv spawn while flying a hog. Killed 5. Wish I had noted airspeed and distance. Would be hard to replicate I think.

My favorite though, was when I finally got enough points to fly a jet. Beautiful puffy white clouds around, first jet flight at 20k. Spot an enemy AR-234. Roll in behind him. He dives a bit. I follow, then rapidly compress, pass him, and "play through" at 650kts all the way down to the crash site.

Upping a tank to defend a spawn as usual, to see 20 GV's up a mission, one which was a King tiger (not on a perk deal but over 100 perks) - Shot him first and then in the confusion another 10 GV's, while the GV mission died of course, I upped a 262 to fly back only to catch the Bishops trying to run 10 stukas back to bomb the GV spawn, 4 out of 10 later, they pretty much gave up.

Mean while the entire time I was climbing out in the 262, the King Tiger driver was whining something about cheese.

Typical Hoarde killed by a single Tanker and 262.

I was in an LA7 helping my squaddies to get a field, I made the mistake of trying to turn and burn when a A6m came up behind me and took my tail off. As I was falling my gunsights happened to line up with him, I pulled the trigger quickly and before he could claim my kill, I shot him out of the sky. Poor boy PMed me and asked how that was possible I was dead, I should not be able to kill him. Never underestimate the power of persistence.

One time I was being BnZ'ed by a tempest in my jug. He came in to HO, we merge, and I shoot off some of his control surfaces. He ran, and I didn't take kindly to that, so I chased him for 4 sectors all the way to his base. He must have forgotten I was there, because he was on final approach when I shot him down :devil

Not long after the B29 was introduced (about two months) I was hunting in my brand new 262, when lo and behold, a box of 29's low over the ocean!  I'm thinking, "man is this righteous, right plane right time, right target". Sooooo, I chop throttle, dropped my left wing and made my attack! Everything was going great. The buffs began to fill my sight. I lined up on the lead buff and was just about to squeeze the trigger when I noticed the first hint of compression! My throttle was all the way back to idle, but was still gaining airspeed. I tried to trim up, but to no avail.
My last thought was the laugh that buff driver must have had as i entered the water at close to 650 mph!   :bhead

After years of trying I finally pulled off the clipped wing P38.  It happened when I was level enough to still control it with rudder.  Almost made it back too but the right engine died and I didn't have enough alt, nor could I keep it with the other engine throttled back.  Ended up rolling into the dead engine into the drink just off the coast with home in sight.

But now I know for sure it flies with two good engines :)  It made for a good laugh for me anyway

I had one incident of compressing that stuck to my mind as pretty funny.
I was divebombing an airfield, and my plane (a NIK1 if I remember correctly) started to squeak on its way down as I came way too hot.. I had trottled back, but was in a steep dive. I trimmed like a maniac, dropped my bomb and hit my target. Then I managed to level out just above ground in a total blackout, when the blackout tunnel opened I could see the end of a hangar right infront of me. So I aimed for it, and passed clean through.. But behind that hangar there was a hill. I pulled back till I went back into the black tunnel again, and followed the hill up ground level. Then half way up the hill there was a tree......  :noid :bhead :cry

Funny - It would have to have been around xmas of 2002.  I log in and Goth says on Squad Vox: "There is a Knight CV that is out in the middle of nowhere, launching missions from time to time and it's pissing me off!".     I roll a heavy F6F and fly on cruise for about 1/2 hour.    Lo and behold, I stumble on the CV group.    I dive and drop ord.    Just as I drop ord a Mission upped.   I instantly got 26 kills and Channel 1 lit up.   I made it to wave height, but a puff ack took my wing off.

Funnier - Creating a 24 C-47 mission that stress tested the server for well over a 1/2 of an hour.

Funniest - Joining Wax and Morpheus's "Jabo Trinity TT to try and find TopGunz at his Knoll".    Morph and Wax had the hangars dropped which started the hornet's buzzing around the nest.    I'm over the Knights Hangar and see a Tiger I rtb'ing to the Hangar.    Wax says, "Jay, he shall not land".     I drop ord and FireHwk commences a 1/2 hour rant on Channel 1 that started by saying he could not land 94 kills.

That reminded me of the time this happened to me. It's been so long that I can't remember how I lost both wingtips, but I flew it back home and got kicked from the arena right before I touched down because the war had been won lol

Many moons ago I upped a Mossie to defend a base from an incoming attack.  My cohorts all headed directly towards the incoming raid, but I headed away to get altitude.  At 10k I turned back and arriving over the fight find an Me262 arriving from the other direction at my alt, way above my countrymen.  I know that an Me262 in the area can be a huge disadvantage as even if it doesn't kill anybody people are having to dodge it and some focus on it, so I go for the HO.  He accepts.  My stream initially misses to above and to the right, but I adjust and nail him as his stream hits me.

SYSTEM: You shot down 262guy.

262guy: 200: I think you got the better deal there Karnak.

so the 20th decide "hey! 90perk 262s! we need to fly em for once!" so there we go the three of us (me wildcat and i believe rebel?) up into the skies to pick on the evil baddies flying around in a furball... wildcat and i spot B24s on the ocean deck getting shot at and say "FREE KILLS!!!" need i say more of what happened to the two of us? :bhead
after this happens wildcat and i are laughing and next thing you know we hear rebel's voice pipe up... "hey guys? guess what just happened..." :rofl

I went into WWI with a squaddie Kilroy, we spent two or three hours absolutely white knuckle. A funny fight had gone on for about 10 minutes until finally kilroy knocked my entire top wing off. On the way down I jumped into the tail gun and one ping head shot him. Nearly shat laughing, I crashed about two seconds after he blew up.

phatzo, that was a very memorable fight. I remember thinking "where did the guy on my 6 come from?"  :headscratch:
Then you laughing.   :huh   :furious  Now I know why there was a price on your head in FSO.   :D

I remember being in the DA with the Prawns and everyone chooses sides and EW planes to have some fun. I think it was 109f4's vs spit5's. Was a bit amusing when I blew through in my LA.    :devil

One of my favorite things to do is resupply a badly damaged base. It always amuses me to get the ack back up as the enemy M3 and troops is rolling to the map room.   :ahand   :neener:

Was chasing flight of 3 bishop b17s at 34,500 feet in a me110 and heard someone say my name on range vox figuring it was a friendly fighter.

Then I looked over to the left at the planes I missed during my fixation.

It was a bishop 110 chasing a flight of friendly b17s at 34,500 feet headed the exact opposite direction.

Three different times I've "attacked" B-17 formations as they were flying toward mountains.  I stay just at the edge of their guns range to keep them tempted to keep firing at me while I watch them explode into the side of the mountain giving me three proxies each time.

I remember the time a friend and I upped an Il-2 and a C-47 as base defense against a Fw-190 porkstar. I lined up my Il-2 for the obvious HO, but apparently the guy in the C-47 lined himself perfectly behind me...so I HO'd the Fw (killing his radiator, go figure) and pulled up to look back and see him splat right into the goon. :D I wish we'd have been drunk, then there'd be an excuse for it.

dogfighting a Zero while in a B5N2 (no forward firing guns) :lol

I remember batched lifting off in one of those thinking it was one of the planes that has a single tiny gun like the Ju-88...dogfighting with some guy for about 3 minutes before pulling the trigger and coming to the realization that the little thing on the side isn't a gunsight. VOX turned into nothing but laughter.

My favorite story from my AH career was my first ever FSO.

I'd been over here for at most a couple weeks when I came over from the other sim.  We were hot to trot for FSO, and things were all new and exciting.

We were flying Hurricane I's if I remember right against 109s, and escorting a flight of bombers.  During the melee over the enemy base, I wound up getting pilot wounded and leaking a fluid a long ways from home.  What followed was the most harrowing 15 minutes I've ever spent ingame.  I was separated from the squad and my engine was going to die soon, checking six constantly as I climbed to get as much alt as possible for the glide home.  Blacking out occasionally from the PW.  Against all my expectations, I had the field in sight when my engine cut out.  I feathered the prop and began my final approach.

I blacked out at about 200 ft alt, came out of it, corrected my angle and started to black out again.  I blacked out about 20 feet off the runway, heard the wheels hit, and came out of the blackout as I was bouncing, the plane was off level now, so I hauled on the stick to level out again for touchdown.  I was too slow at this point to control it enough, and touched a wingtip.  The airframe proceeded to roll down the runway, losing parts in spectacular fashion.  I rolled to a stop, no wings, no tail, in the middle of the runway, nothing left of the aircraft but the cockpit, laughing like a hyena.  I sat back with a sigh of relief, and as I was reaching forward to hit .ef on the keyboard, the screen went red and I found myself in the tower having died from the pilot wound.

Mrs. Wiley has dubbed the condition that resulted from this landing 'FSO Tourette's'...

I can remember from a long time ago taking a Hog up to about 20k to dive bomb a carrier or something, can't remember exactly what it was.  Ran into a Ki61 co alt and dumped the bomb to dogfight.  Keep in mind I have no idea what I'm over or where this bomb will go, I get a kill message like 30 seconds later :headscratch:  Ended up killing some poor random bastard that just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time :lol

lol, I had just taken off from a CV once that had b-24s overhead. I must have been 2 or 3 boat lengths in front of it and about 1500ft, a bomb hit me. I was thinking " you lucky fn bad aim bastard"

FSO several years back.  I was on the tarmac having ejected out of my plane waiting for the squad to land.  As MGD is coming in for a landing, I point my .45 at him and he dares me to pop him.

I did.  KS off.

Shot through his windshield.  He flies the rest of the frame with a bullet hole smack in the middle of his screen and a pw.

I rarely get in a tank,, one night fire dragon was taunting on 200 for more cannon fodder to up at spawn. By the time I upped he was heading back to base, I just raised main gun as high as I could figured I'd scare him if the rounds even hit close. I hit and killed him on the first shot. He p,med me that he was just about to land 19 kills.

Same night I spawned on top of cliff way above vb at bottom of canyon, I asked on local if it was possible to drive tank of a cliff and survive, someone said yes as long as you stay upright. So off I went landed right next to two tanks defending base right where the cliff meets the flat. Anyway I kid you not main gun pointing right at first tank all I had to do was pull the trigger. Move turret and killed other tank, they both lit up 200 wanting to know how in the heck I got that close.

Don't know if I've been in tank since.

Today, offline, I was starting off of a CV. But when I got there, the ships seemed turning, and to be very close together.

Hm. Well, maybe its SUPPOSED to turn for eternity.

One FSO we got assigned Ki-67s we were all formed up and level at 15,000 with zeros above. I hear one of the zero pilots say "I am going in." I think going in? He is 20,000 ft. Suddenly between my formation and devils formation a flash of a zero spinning like a leaf. He spun right in between us. Hes yelling I am going in still asking what to do. All we could do is laugh. He ended up saving it at about 3000 ft.

I was making a bomb run in a single B29 to get a feeling what kind of plane it was in action. I first dropped half the load to a bish base and ran into a Spit that was gaining alt and it seemed that he was no too keen to have a shot at me. After drop I turned for a knit base that was handily nearby and dropped rest of the load there and turned for home in a slight descent.
However, I didn't observe that my speed was building up and at some point I pulled up and *BANG!* my elevators flew off and the plane started to go into a steep climb. I pulled back on the throttle and started to drop flaps when the speed had dropped out enough and regained control of the aircraft. I proceeded to fly towards our base by managing the descent with throttles and flaps and direction with rudder and suddenly noticed that there was a knit K4 on my 6oc closing fast.
K4 driver knew better than to close in for the kill straight away and flew to my side and attacked. We exchanged fire for awhile and I got his engine and I also registered a hit and something flying off my plane. After K4 was going down and checking that there was no other plane around I checked damage log and saw that my rudder was also gone now.
At this stage I was well past my base and started to limp back with only my ailerons, throttle and flaps for control and as it happened I managed to land the plane in one piece straight on the runway. Somehow I got a feeling that all the luck I was to have with B29 was spent on that single sortie.

Had the big guns from the cruiser on a vh during a cv take and well them little suckers just kept coming out and I just kept on firing, must have killed 10 of em before I got the vh down. Funny part to me was I couldn't see the vh most of the time just kept gettin killz. The thought of them scrambling gvs and those big rounds landing on them to me got rather funny.

Sort of like when there's a bunch of flies in the window, and I keep killing them off with my flyswatter? :D






















Stupid flies.

   I was flying Lancs taking out a V-base when I see an AR-234 approaching. Thinking he was otw to our base gave it no thought until boom, 1 drone dead. Boom second one dead. Was damn hard to avoid that 234's rear guns.

    Shaking fist at NKL5 and his uber 234!  :furious

    We both laughed on 200 and never underestimated his 234 again.
