I smoked you all in the:
TA152 25.60/1
and
109K 35.50/1
Post em up, which aircraft did you have the highest K/D in ?
-
pfft
do that actually fighting all comers then I will be impressed.
-
congrats on your awesome pick and run skills. :aok
-
Debbie Downer and Negative Nellie have checked in.
-
well what do you expect.....this is showing you do not partake in COMBAT in a COMBAT game...it does not show "skill" what so ever....shows the exact opposite actually.
-
I smoked me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

Sorry zoney, nobody likes to see anyone place themselves beside the gods, especially if they pay no respect to whom was before them. :old:
-

What I expected is there would be a few guys that would post their plane they had the best K/D in.
What I expected from you was exactly what I got. You expressing your disdain for me because you don't obviously approve of the way I play.
I get it Ink, you bang that drum every damn chance you get. I don't give a crap what your opinion of the way I play is. The difference in us is
I'm not the one always telling folks that the way they play sucks (it does not show "skill" what so ever) and isn't the way the game is designed (you do not partake in COMBAT in a COMBAT game). Who says you're right about this being designed as a Combat game as you define it anyway. I've never seen anything from HiTec that says you should fight to the death every fight no matter what. Maybe I prefer to fly it more as a sim and am smart enough to know when to extricate myself from a fight and good enough to follow through. I really enjoy the way I play. I really enjoy this game, it's fantastic.

I never said I was better than anyone here. i said my K/D in these 2 planes was better than anyone here.

:rofl
obviously you care or wouldn't respond to my post :aok
"I smoked you all" is your first line......
right there you are saying you are better then everyone else, yet all you did was pick and choose who to engage
never went into a fight that may have been difficult to get out of......yet you are bragging about it......
play how you like.... but don't think you are some great virtual stick because you can fly careful and never engage an nme that might get the better of you.
anytime you want to see how bad of a stick you really are just say the word....I will Gladly show you what it means to be a fighter....which YOU are NOT.

My experiences with Zoney are that he is a high-altitude bomber interceptor / prowler / hunter / bastard. :salute
I am not saying he does not or has not picked fighters, I have just never personally seen him do it.
What I HAVE seen him do is glide in (like a bastard) and shank a wing or hammerfist my cockpit while I am busy reading Forbes or smoking model glue.
On the other hand, he doesn't shy away from guns blazing at him, and I have oiled/partially dismantled his fighters on occasion and on (rarer) occasion sent him packing!
He does a great service for the game as a whole, being one of the unsung heroes (that jerk Snailusche also comes to mind) that collect the town-porker taxes on a regular basis.
Bomber hunters benefit the AH ecosystem by:
1. Taking the milk out of milk running; this makes running a lone Mossie XVI or even a formation of B-17s a more exciting proposition, or acts as a check against the ultimately timid who will just bail and quit.
2. Putting a check on lone strat runners; with the strats being hugely helpful to rolling bases this speaks for itself.
3. Keeps base porkers from simply climbing to 20-30k to end your furball fun. They either give up or fly low where you can have your way with them.
I haven't flown bombers for several tours now, and hence have seen very little of Zonediggity.

Last tour or lifetime?

Once i had like 25:0 in a jet. Then started turning with the lone 190s... the first 190 have turned to be Latrobe... :D
I will never ever forget that fight, was a really good scissors we had.

LOL allright, just November, don't go all Snailman on me :rock

F4U-1A 14:0 :D only played 2 hours

It's no secret that Ink and I do not agree on a lot of things, but Ink is dead on here. This is a combat game and people who avoid combat and then brag about it are ruining the game. I can't begin to tell you how tired I am of having people in high performance planes run from our fight just because I managed to get the upper hand and I can not catch most aircraft with my B-38. I would rather die 1000 times in a fight with Ink than pick and run in a high performance bird. There is just no fun in that and you will never get any better.
-

Actually, when I read the topic I thought you were "going Snailman" on us and provide us with an in-depth analysis of all plane K/D's in the last tour :old:

well you will get good at running like.......... a word that rhymes with wussy :O

LOL allright, just November, don't go all Snailman on me :rock
1.) P-51D: 3.5 K/D
2.) F6F: 3.2 K/D
Contrary to what 00Seven was whining about on 200 the other night, most of my fights are low and slow. I has just put a bunch of rounds into him then left him to die :)

Zoney No matter the thread, no matter the topic, no matter the poster, this game is full of haters. There are many topics or information or questions we would all love to post, but every thread in here gets trolled by those haters. Ask a question of score: you are a score potato, mention K/D you are a running wussy, Best to just shut up and not partake in this community, they basically are not very nice. The good peeps in this game are usually quietly working in the background, helping new players via Pms or vox etc. No point saying anything in the forum, somewhere somehow they will ridicule you.
I started many years ago in Fighter Ace, watched the haters destroy the community through the forums and through in game harassment. Why would any noobie sign up for this game, they read ch200 chat, (which is appalling full of misogyny, racism, homophobia and ad hominem attacks) they read the forums and just go no way am I setting myself up for that crap. Even in the last two years the number of players online at any time has reduced. When I started, 2 rooms usually full 2-300 each room EVERYDAY! nowhere near that now. I joined mainly because in my timezone (Australia) there was 150-200 players, now lucky to have 60 and so spread out takes an hour to find anyone.
EVERY player in here needs to take a good hard look at themselves and think about whether their actions and chat are promoting this game or forcing people to leave. I'm sure the trolls will be out on this post too, but think before you post, I've seen 1 game fail, not because of the games graphics or game play, but simply because no one wanted to join an online community of haters. Do not let Aces high go the same way, the only way it will survive is with NEW players joining, they only way that can happen is if they are welcomed, not berated or ridiculed.

didn't know you could search for K/D like that!! +1

10/10, Babs... good stuff. :cheers:

This thread made me realize I had the lowest K/D ratio of anyone who got more than 100 kills in a P-38J.

I never was a contenda. :cry

People leave on their own accord. No amount of trash talk will keep people away if they really want to be here. Every online community and I mean every single one has people who berate others.
I think these kinds of posts are funny. What happens is people fly timidly and protect their stats for a month and the tour ends. No one notices their "uber" stats so they come here and post to get their name in lights. Which they get because people post in their thread.

Zoney,
I sometimes wonder if the guys that knock your flying style just lack the discipline and SA to be successful? Anyone can tape the trigger down and dive into a furball gyrating until dead. It takes good SA and discipline to be able to fly a tour with a high k/d.
<S>

TA152 25.60/1

I hope I'm one that will wreck them next tour. :D
Seriously, ignore anyone who tells you how to fly or play.
They can all shove it right up their tailpipe. :neener:

Oh anyone can attempt for sure, but the results would still be quite limited for the majority of players ;)
-
Snail, not really. I know "players" with amazingly high K/D (10+), yet when it came to 1v1, they "tryed" to run to their CV ack in a zeek from a just upped Lala or in a ki84 from a Dora. No kidding!! If this says something.

That you know someone who can do this doesn't mean "anybody" can. I have seen somene killing late war planes left and right in a C202... does that mean anybody can do that too?
The skill level of the average player is often vastly overrated in such discussions. The majority of players in any give tour would be hard pressed to get 10+ K/D in anything, no matter how hard they try (=how 'cautious' they fly).
Their aim isn't up to par, they can't identify the opportunities to rack up easy kills on the map, their SA sucks so they will get picked at some point, they crash next to the runway while vulching (heck, even I do that), and so on.
While I'm not claiming somone with a k/d that high is automatically among the 'top pilots' (however subjective that is), it still takes skills not possesed by the aforementioned "anyone". The average player can be glad to get a kill every few sorties and sometimes even getting home.
-

Clearly that's not true as evidenced by your "look at me" thread.
-
Gotcha! :salute
True, only a very few "players" are biased this assimetrically between the ACM and SA.
Just the funny memories came back about that zeek , stirring the stick despairingly against a single lala he couldnt vulch :)
-
True, only a very few "players" are biased this assimetrically between the ACM and SA.
That's hitting the point quite well. But that goes both ways. There are players that have very much above average ACM skills, which are often shown in the DA, yet their MA 'performance' ain't that great at all, because their tactical as well as their battle SA plain sucks.
Of course, they often claim "I just don't care"... excuses and delusions can be found on both sides of the scale ;)

I killed a crap load of Bud Light in November and didn't die.....winning :rock

moin
my highest KD i ever reched was 1:28 and that all in fliing one month the 410 :-). it was tour 153.
cu christian
-
Ooops.... did I forget to fly last month?
Great work Zoney!
EDIT: because you asked: 22:1 in P-51D 9:0 in Ta152
And because you dont want to know. . . for the year its 63.5:1 in the Ta152 and 82.11 in the pony (not including December). Im sure someone has done better in combat that isnt the same combat you or I have been in. . . or they would be dead more. Right? :D

It is absolutely amazing that you can see so clearly this "timid" behavior without ever having flown with or against Zoney (that anyone knows of). Maybe no one noticed.
I know for a fact that Zoney has flown for more than an hour as escort deep into rook territory on numerous occasions. I dont care who you are if you think that is "timid" then you need to reconsider. You get bored by his style and we get bored by yours. So what? The point is that the small posse of groupies on the forums do discourage people from more open discussions that vary from the groupies mindset. That must have an affect upon subscriptions that only argument is how much of an affect. I think its more economy at this point and I think it will get worse and the subscribers fewer. I wish it were not true and I hope HTC can weather it without a great loss.

Race you to 100, I'm not too far behind! :old: :lol

Already have 102 - and it only took 6 years! I am super-awesome! :x

I expended many planes for tower access.
Exploring in aces high is hard on stats.

Maybe it's hard on stats but you end up with an awesome screen shot! I have seen you mention "trying to parachute into the tower" a couple of times heretofore, now I get it, well done, I'm very jealous.

Well I may not have the best ratio for K/D but i did get the most hurricane MkIa kills in november.

Hehe. . . we pups flew a lot of early jobs in August. EVERY plane is a runner when you fly one of those. It is amazing how many kills you can get on the hoards flying a HurrI or Spit I because the fast jobs cannot turn with you but when they see your icon they think you are easy meat. Then they run when they get hit.
Really takes the bite of the 'runstang' comments when you see it from that perspective.

Your right. I checked his score out too. It seems he lacks patience and eventually comes down to the lower levels and kills a lot of planes I usually ignore as substandard. He even has a T-34 kill in a 152 which is unusual to say the least.
You should bow your head and acknowledge him before he grows beyond the need for your trivial attention.
