Post by: Citabria on June 06, 2002, 01:38:48 AM

WTFG Cit!!!! Getting a kill streak like that with the current planeset and large No of players is very very good.

Not bad for a freakin TARD!

OK, a new benchmark that I'll never get close to.

Not bad :)  Who held the original record?  Fishu?  What was the final tally?

Post by: Nifty on June 06, 2002, 10:07:54 AM
I don't know what's more impressive.  The fact he got so many kills before dying or the fact that since the new tour started, he's already been playing close to 24 hours!

They should charge ya double, cit, you eat up too much bandwidth per day!  :D

Vulching is way too dangerous to build a streak like this one.

Not with AWACS radar it's not.  So long as the vehicle hangar and acks are taken care of, there's little to fear from vulching so long as you avoid the "Just one more kill" syndrome and bug out when you see that enemies are approaching from a rear base.  A fast, survivable plane helps.

Jeebus,  check the sour grapes monkey-boys.

No one says you can't vulch or fly for bish either.

Post by: MrRiplEy[H] on June 06, 2002, 03:21:27 PM
Thrawn I'm pretty sure there are many who would exactly not fly bish for any cost (when they outnumber others 2:1 or worse.)

You know, the guys who actually worry about gameplay and keep the bish hordes supplied with kill material.

Yeah fine, but they don't HAVE to.  They make a choice and then cry about the Cit's streak.  I mean...how sad is that?

Bishops have been anything but overpowering lately.  They suffered two resets at the hands of the Rooks in a two or three hour span a couple of days ago.  I believe they lost a third time while I was on yesterday.

I think he was talking about numbers and not flying ability though.  ;)

bishops statistically get handed their tulips by both of the other countries.

I'm one of those, ;)

I mean no disrespect to people that have been flying Bish since long time and stay Bish when the No's are good. I respect those. They deserve it because Bish No's haven't been good all the time.
I would never go Bish again though (I started AH as Bish) with the current unbalanced No's, because for me it's not challenging to fly 2-1 odds.
 

The reason why Bish still get reset even with larger No's is because rooks and knits often stop fighting eachother when Bish horde the 2 countries.
Also rooks have shown to be very smart by taking bases from the country that is close to winning the reset and 'stealing' the reset from that country (I love it, although I'm not rook). It shows that even with large No's you have to play smart (yes, that means defending your bases too to win the reset).
Another reason is that a certain ammount of the higher Bish No's is N00Bs that switch to the 'winning' side constantly. They hardly contribute to a serious threat though.

I too was upset (not so long ago even) by the unbalanced No in the MA. I don't care anymore now. I switch to a different flying mode once the odds become very bad and still get allot of kills.
