I have had fun again and met some pretty cool people......Thanks Bish......
-
pleasure to be of service <S> from the 91ST BG Ragged Irregulars

:aok
<S> TC

Bish aren't the worst.

Weird i switched bish last night hoping the 4 dar's of red was a furball only to find out the bish were simply hording the knits. I take off flying only to find out none of my controls are calibrated - 10 minutes later I come back the 50 players capping ONE airfield get killed - there is no cap.
I take off only to hear LVTs begging for cap - what happen to those that had the field capped? oh wait....
I never seen one entire country who only were attacking one target - suddenly give up and switch faster then the Bish.
I guess at most 10-15 defenders on the knights side, I wouldn't put it past 15 defenders at MOST. 50 attackers at the bare minimum.
Seriously?!
-
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Bishop the side that new players automatically gets put on? Not bashing the bish but I think that's why so many clueless people are over there. If that's not the case then uh.... :headscratch: :uhoh

There are just as many clueless on the other sides too..... I've seen it first had lately 8)
good to see you have found some fun again TC .... no good pushing pixels if you are not having a good time of it

Oh yea, I know, not saying there isn't, but it seems like the general consensus is that bish aren't exactly known for their top pilots. There are exceptions, but not a whole lot.

Really? I'm Bish, I was playing last night and I wasn't there.
There goes the one entire country statement. It makes anything else you say hard to believe is credible.
-
You guys with your bish, nit, rook thing...its like the disintegration of Yugoslavia.

Exception makes the rule. If majority of country is attacking the claim is completely credible :furious

Midway is the best bishop fighter pilot, that tells something.

I think you are talking about one squad plus roadies. The cool guys are in tanks or resupplying... or were when you were on. :D

Its good to have you TOMCAT. :salute
-
I am not new to the game, been playing for about 7 years...started out knight and then was rook for about 6 years....before I went bish. There are some great people in this on all countries as with real life, you cant like everyone. There are some good people on the bish, if you look past the cartoon and at the person behind it....their skin and bones like yourself. Jokers, Vgang, 91st...etc have some fantastic people. IN this case, I had to reinvent myself and I did as a Bish. and btw, thnks IV ( B Co/B trp 3-187 IN/3rd BCT 101 05-07 Rakkasan !!!! )

Glad to see you flying again Tomcat. :aok

WOW hording the nits, more like defending and getting ganged (again) from both sides. The one mission i saw which was very very strange is the mission vs nits to 158. Mission about 2 minutes before launch and here comes 3-4 nits cons into cv in a beeline and right as mission launched the cv got turned, crashed about 10 a/c on deck, wonder how that happened :headscratch: I did do one thing last night change both of the icons for the other sides to YELLOW cuz that's how I feel about now
-
I think everyone should switch sides once and awhile to just meet the others...when I went Knight for a few months I met some great guys , even the ones I thought where (radio edit) turned out to be guys just having fun in their own speical way..no names..cough....Doom....cough ...lol, <S> All
-
us bish always get the noobs lol thats where most of our horde comes from they all join a chuwie or flakhappy mission and it just becomes framerate dump lol

Its more fun to bait doom into trying to vulch a runway and sit in a 37mm waiting for him, works just about every time (just look for the 190a8)..
Oh hai Doom! :)

I'm not sure where you were flying, but I spent most of the evening with 4 or 5 others bouncing between fields defending them. We would hold them off for a while but inevitably the numbers would get to be too much and we would lose the field, so on to the next large red dar we would go. :joystick:

<S> Tomcat,
Having fun is the name of the game. I did the Rook thing forever, with two great squads. It was nice to do missions with them and to have the chat buffer / and squad vox going. The numbers fell off, and since I have an odd schedule, it effected me the most. I moved from country to country to find there are distinct differences in play. I won't speak on any of the stereotypes, but will say the paranoia is pretty much equal in all countries. :neener:
Someone did however raise a very valid point about a feature that is available to all countries, but mostly ignored........ missions :old:
-
It still surprises me that people think there's a different of game play between the three countries :headscratch:

do you see knights rolling 40 lancasters for a single v base? Here's a difference.

Come now you know that if we do missions they are by that means def fined as Hoards. :rofl

Whats the fun of a mission when 40 attack a base being defended by zero? I guess its your $15...
Question:
how come said missions never attack defended bases? If they do its always 20k p51s dive bombing all the hangers into submission.
Guess ill never understand the interest in avoiding combat at all costs.
-

Yes, as a matter of fact. The Knights have the Jayro horde, the rooks have the LCA/ Devil Dog horde (no disrespect to any squad mentioned). Every side is the same.

I am a one man horde :noid

Defense is one aspect. Sense of achievement is another. Why does that one zero roll in the face of 40? Does he lay his cartoon life for the flag and chess piece country of his choice? Does he simply enjoy the thrill of overcoming phenomenal odds? Is he just too lazy to fly 15 minutes or more to encounter a "fair fight"?
Why does it take 40 P51s dive bombing to get a base capture? Why does it only take one bullet placed at the opportune moment to spoil a base capture?
Yes, there are distinct differences between countries. The most prevalent difference is who can post a mission and have an adequate response (There is a small list for each country).
Yes, I love to furball sometimes. Yes, I like to acquire / defend turf sometimes. Yes, I like to fly off in the distance and make precision hits on targets sometimes. What so many, (I dare say, too many), fail to comprehend is that there is a country at all. To them, there are merely good guys and bad guys. So some countries loose resources, turf and advantages faster than others. The result being, no matter what you prefer to do, if some things don't get done to advance the country then you might as well log off, or get rolled up and hope that your GREAT ENY balancer will level the playing field.

Gotta love angus, first time I found him in a 262 I chased him back to field ack 4 sectors away - where he kept running and half dozen Muppets decided to up 262s right when I was near the airfield.
Never again will I see 1,000 perks ruined in 5 minutes or less, then again an angry swarm of La7s chased me down.
:cheers:

The AK's rotate every month and have for a while.
I can tell you from personal experience that all sides are the same. The same whines are heard no matter which chess piece we are. The XXX's are HOtards, gangtards and hordlings... Every month it's the same thing. :rock

exactly. its amazing how the diehard country-loyal weirdos don't see it though..
a rook complained on 200 the other about how the bish are always hording.
I say "indeed bish horde.. look at a171". "oh wait thats 2 full sectors of rooks against 2 or 3 bishops." :rofl
then I remember, hordelets call their own hordes "organized missions". :D
-
since I started roaming from bish I found I have a whole new set of haters :D
I think I might be ostracized when I show my face back there
-

The the shadows of perceived truth will even prevail in the sunlight of reality. Have seen it so many time, a "X and Y are not fighting each other" will get a lot of agreeing statements like "do they ever", "of course they don't, they love to gang us", even when the map shows something different that very moment. I mean, everyone knows that Rooks and Bish or Bish and Nits or Nits and Rooks never fight each other, so there is no need to open the eyes, right?

(all the bases were flashing and the battle was raging on for a long time already)
Your country can also steamroll 5 out of 6 maps in a row, the next day you will be told "we never win a map, cuz they gang us and we can't organize"

let me know how you get on with that tongs. AH is serious business in some parts.

why do the hordlings always call their hordes "missions"?
afraid of the truth?

that too!
i was gonna bring up the other oft whined situation as well.. sometimes, the one country is truly getting ganged, (when it's like 150 vs 150 vs 90 and theres very little action between the 300) but people will whine that "why are we giving away our bases!?!?" (couldn't be the extra 120 people, could it?)
A genius will chime in its "because we don't pork ords and troops"
followed by "someone (ELSE) go pork Axxx"
followed by "----------JOIN BASE TAKE MISSION-------------"
:rofl
-
As a squad we rotate piece regularly and do find differences between countries. All have their good and bad and they also tend to change regularly. Some months the bish do this and not that but the next rotation it will change completely. That goes for all 3 sides.
It's all good fun and getting the chance to fly with and against every player in the game is way cool.

Because HTC only supplies a mission planner. There is no horde planner in the current release.

Thanks, trust me though. As an amateur mission poster myself, it would be fun to add the horde planner to differentiate between serious missions and hordes. Sometimes it's best to just throw 30 identical planes at the enemy.
I would also like to see mission invitations added. This way we can try to assemble a smaller dream team made up of guys you know can carry out a plan.
NOE and Divebombing is often too complicated for the average public mission to pull off and the groundskeeper is getting fed up if I'm being honest.
