and come to think of it, you were BEGGING midway to come to this thread just by the title, weren't you? :bhead
I need a better map to bomb in...I have been slacking in bomber area. :)Same not the first run , that would help but kicking to much butt here
ok guys remember we arent talking about score here. but we are talking about what makes you think your squad is #1. forget the score as it can be easily manipulated. I am more interested in the personal opinion of each individual. really what makes you think your squad is better than any other squad. that is the purpose of this thread.What makes a squad is everyone getting along and having a blast flying with eachother no matter the age difference between squadies...
semp
Check SDL forum...I'm trying to get the ball rolling.
Seems we need another season of SDL to sort it out properly.

Ok, while Melvin is a light weight on 200 his nose art is hot so...

Anyone can achieve #1 rank via score
a squad is also about fighting together, not a collection of skilled duellersyessir, running straight till the poor soul in my six gets busy then reverse is way too complex for me, im just this stupid, nothing i can do about it :aok
but that concept is too complex for people like debrody.

Despite your uber leet dueling skill you are the worst wingman ever then. Setting up a kill for someone is enjoyable, try it sometime.tryed it. got a shizzload of kills. wasnt much fun, was too complex for my little brain.
Nonsense.
Despite your uber leet dueling skill you are the worst wingman ever then. Setting up a kill for someone is enjoyable, try it sometime.
Fly bombers at 40K - rank 1
Fly a 262 - rank 1
Join a horde - rank 1 (attack mode)
Camp a spawn - rank 1
Obviously a 1 week noob can't do it, but the average guy sure can. (Average" being based on your charts)
And you are?
:D
Even more nonsense. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
I am sure you understand they mean somebody that knows the ranking system can easily achieve#1 in any category they wish.
You drop 1 bomb in every town center with a Ki-67 [...] and voila, most boring and easiest score to get.
Even more nonsense. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
Yes, it's easy to "game" the rank system in as much as some things are helpful (or even necessary for score) and a few are not.That is where alot of players go wrong by thinking only certain categories are of need to be #1. You aint telling me nothing I dont already know forgive my Members they have not had the chance for me to explain it full length.
But there's a limit to it. It's not just about deciding to go for #1 and then you are. Only a very small percentage of players can do that. Because to be number #1 you don't have just to do a few things, but you have to do them well. With like 4000 players in the arena, you really think it's just a matter of wanting to be fighter #1? I should have been #1 in fighters a few times then. You don't have the single best dueller to rank number 1 in fighters, but you need a strong set of skills to get k/d k/s K/h and points high enough at the same time, even when "flying with the horde" or vulching all the time. It's way beyond the capabilities of the ordinary player, who can be glad when he's getting one kill for each death under ordinary conditions.
Yeah just fly a 262 to get #1... where does the average joe get the perks for all that jets he will inevitably lose? Why arent the dozens of jet pilots per tour #1 all the time? Just fly with the horde to get attack #1... as if that is not being done by thousands of palyers per tour :rolleyes:
That is where alot of players go wrong by thinking only certain categories are of need to be #1.
There's only one thing I will say to SempThis is all that should matter to a squadmate not be all worried about others. :salute Pigs On The Wing :salute
You are in the number one squad already.
Why ask what doesn't need to be asked?
WE ARE THE SWINE ONLINE.... WE DINE AND LOVE TO JEAR THE REDGUYS WHINE

Even when they do know, they just can't do it, especially in fighters. The minimum skill level required is higher than the average skill level. With so many players trying to get a good rank (with many more simply being that 'good'), it's not just a matter of choice.I can go for it at any time only thing that lacks for me at the end of the month is Kill Points.
"no skill is needed at all" or "anyone could do it" is plain & simply wrong.

3 things (maybe four) are needed, Snail:This is why I go for score most of the time because if you can combine skill while holding these ranks thats just epic. <--In my opinion atleast, This is only because so many non-skilled pilots gives the score its name.
-some skill, of course
-endless patience to run from every hot situation, or not to fall asleep on the loooong milkruns.
-thick skin on the face
-(and many "imafluffingoodwingman" squaddies in high alt ponies to cover your six in that case if you get stuck somewhere)
Since i dont have any of theese, i must seriously sukk with my feeble brain.
:banana:
-endless patience to run from every hot situation
I for 1 can't have a good rank. I cannot play for score. It just makes my blood pressure to high and it also increase my rages by 100%Same or give up my life to save a Squad member .
Thats easy its the Blue Knights :banana:
Which can also be said for those that chase stats... isn't that right Snail. :neener:
I would really like that Snail a bit curious I am now. :old:
I for 1 can't have a good rank. I cannot play for score. It just makes my blood pressure to high and it also increase my rages by 100%Hahah i hear that, it would get the best of me :cry
running to a friendly is not good for kills/hour
running to an enemy and pick him while he's unaware is good tho :D
"Chasing" sucks too. After a long day of yard work I got on to fly even tho I was wiped out. I took three flights, and spent over an hour chasing buffs, and high cons that would run away once you equalized the "E". 3 flights, 3 deaths, logged for the night.
Apologies for being insultant earlier but don't belittle people trying to survive, often suiciding in a 1V1 is the easiest way.
Also we may need to order a modified canopy for titan's 109, as his head inflated quite a lot lately :angel:
You could try to deflate it next time we run into each other. :aok Assuming it's just you and not the rest of your squad joining in too. :airplane:
Maybe you won't overshoot a deadstick plane and eat a tater in the butt next time. :devil
Score is worthless.
Also there is no best squad. There are "best people" tho, and they are those who give me fun fights, either i win or lose. Yea semp, you got it, a good fight isnt about pony picknrunning, you know... Yes, the TG has many member who are definiately good fights, also some who arent, but idc since the "fight instead of run to buddies" ones in a large majority there.
Nice troll thread again semp, you can be proud.
so what exactly makes me a troll for posting this question?I have plenty of reasons why I like my squad. I don't have to explain why I fly the way I fly to anyone of them because we all get each other.
"so the question that comes to mind in this discussion is what make you think your squad is the best. in your own words. what is it that makes your squad the #1?. the score thing, the fun of flying, the drunkness, the joking around. seriously what makes you think you are in the best squad?."
I have seen many people answer to the thread but so far I ahve only seen 2 people try to explain why they like their squad.
so does anybody have any idea why they like their own squad? to me being the #1 squad has nothing to do with score but more to do with fun. that is the ultimate goal after all. but the definition of "fun" is different for each individual. that's why I posted the question and yet few have even attempted to answer it.

I don't think we are the BEST squad (G3-MF)...

Just ignore it semp, I get accused of trolling all the time. :rolleyes:
Can't hardly say "Hi" without someone screaming "TROLL!" :huh
367th and Top Gun struck me as some of the most fun squads in the game, the personalities is my main reason for putting them up front, the different personalities you deal with every day to come together and have fun.
I could break down each of their personalities in a word or two and none of it would be bad what so ever, I don't see ego's in game, rather some might precieve it on the BBS when talking to a person individually its not the case.
You put 30 different personalities from all around the world to fly in a game is damn right fun. I've flown my share of squads, I wouldn't say there are many that have such a deep broad range of personalities.
Oooooh ooh , do me! Me me me me!
Of course depends on criteria. If the definition is squad with lots of high ranking sticks, one answer. If it is squad that flies best actual squad ops, another. Loose Deuce won season 1 of the Squad Dueling League before I joined, so only going by observations. Several squads had much better 1v1 pilots but when tasked with wingman fighting outcomes changed.
Seems we need another season of SDL to sort it out properly.
Boo
SDL is not a good litmus because only a few squads participate in it.
Clearly the Devil Dogs, as we have a real life national treasure... a gentleman who flew B-29s back in the 1950's.
:)
The Few is always willing to get the SDL ball rolling again, but as said before it's hard to be participate and organize such a competitive event at the same time.
~Squad-A-Bing~ is the #1 squad. :salute
:rofl
Whoever's ankle is unguarded at the moment is in the best squad :D
If i were you, i would be very quiet about why the SDL isnt running.
Enlighten us mister hater. I'm sure everything can be resolved by starting the hate fire again.One thing would be to drop the Big head Nuke Its not becoming of you. :rolleyes:

I don't know if this is pointed out but I think POTW is number one squad, I don't know who the numer 1 squad is tho..... Don't hate me Semp I know it was the Canadian assent
Title clearly states "who" is the number 1 squad. :old:
The whole lot of you Few Members have taken a sudden turn for the worse.
I will pray that the name doesnt die out as you gents did. :salute
Don't worry yourself, mate. As long as Bruv draws breath, The Few's name will live on in AH.Its been awhile since Ive seen you :)

Isn't the only way to figure who the best is to duel it out and see who comes on on top?

wow...I stopped reading this thread when I noticed JOACHIM was too drunk to guard his mom but after reading it, or most of it something occured to me..
They're gonna need a bigger short bus for you guys. I keep tellin ya, DON'T FEED MIDWAY. He just multiplies...he's like a freakin BBS gremlin. Never use phrases like: Best squad, Best pilot, Best 6 shot, Best ACM, stall fight, stall fighting, angles, angles shot, best merge, FPH (especially this one), hero. You can mix and match words FROM these phrases as to confuse him, such as: "Who's the Best 6 merger?" See how I mixed them up to confuse and confound Midway so that he is off balance and cannot adequately respond? The answer is ofcourse, Midway. If certain BBS topics or pilots like Grizz, Bruv or Kazaa ever come to a sudden stop, Midway's face will merge with their 6. Think fellas, think!!! Don't be a Midway casualty.
Wouldn't say we are the best Squad but Duxford Wing RAF is one of the oldest here and we do have a bunch of great guys who get along and have a good time in the game. Have made a name by working with other squads and have quite a few good sticks. We try to treat folks with respect in the game and conduct ourselves with pride. Zensen the wing co is one hell of a teacher and just a plain great guy. We fly rook and always have regardless of the tide. We preach skill and fun not score and it seems to work since I have improved rather well since I have been with them I think........ Salute to all the squads out therewho help make the game what it is....FUN!

Hes just saying thats a deckish thing to do. It's the Australian accent it throughs people off.
Lmao! It was rhetorical sarcasm Hamm...lol
what was this thread about, again?
Great squad to fly with, especially when JimmyC is Schwasted :rock :rock :rock .....but he will make you deack so he can vulch :((http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff274/lowerbrook/batfinkv.gif)71 RAFwe get drunk and have a laugh...total win
I have tried joining other Squads but for various reasons it just never seems to work, not long ago I thought I had finally found.....and when the band your in starts playing different tunes, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.
a squad I could really enjoy only for it to end within a day and completely out of the blue.
My squad has 100% attendence on squad night! and there has never been an arguement! we have never lost more then one guy on any mission!
but squad vox chn is pretty quiet
The #1 squad is the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders...of course!
what was this thread about, again?
This is possibly the only true number 1 squad. In AH, there will never be a number one squad; they all share in that distinction. When the phrase "no matter where ya go, there you are" was coined, well they had it right.
Now of course, I am the number 1 player and whichever squad I'm in is....ahem; sorry got carried away there.
But, you get my drift :) Salute to em all! :cheers:
stopping changeup from getting close to somebody's mom, i think.
