All I can say is, he is in there. If he wants to reveal himself, that is up to him. But if your question is "Are you flying, Fishu?" the answer is most definitely "yes".  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Ahm.. wrong Kieren, I am not flying  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
I quit couple days ago and now I'll just wait them to fix two issues.. then I'd be more forward for paying such amount as required... (if not *there* already)
and nah.. i don't tell my possible alternate nicks. (which i've had two since beta end, one nuther for 1 days use)
So no, I am not flying that much as you think  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Balls. Don't leave home without 'em!

Even good pilots eventually get shot down. If you're really good, everyone knows it anyway.

But what does it say about pride and character when you are afraid to fly under the name you use to <ahem> critique the game on the bbs?

well Fishu,

I was shot down by a1  even know i took  off from a32....  kats got the kill and my K/d ratio went from 4.0 +++  to 3 something before after the 3 rd time i launched i realized something was wrong...  I guess my SA sucks for not knowing that after taking off from a supposed friendly base i was at a enemy base (a1 as opposed from a32 like i intended.)

Geeze i never die multiple times due some BS let alone to have some scrapper to talk his shice...  From the ram technique(RAM no pun intended) to the blow up as soon as i appear at the field  tactic......

No thats real acm ( cant remember when the last time someone handed me my lunch flying ACM as opposed to the faster  your faster (   8P   tactic )heresomeone exploits the code HT has introduced by ramming me and becuase I e-fight i'm going faster and die instantly and my opponent flys away unscathed, after they pull suicide tactics only to recieve no dammage in  collission.

pretty rotten indeed ....


some frugal words of advice  

(SCORE IS POINTLESS AND A CRUMMY INDICTION OF PILOT SKILL)


Good night...

Umm.. no.. I actually did do constant 4-6 kills average on P47 (ugh.. should I say 'über plane') and capture fields with M3 only... (dumb acks)

But of course I did suicide rides, mostly to test few things   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) (oh yeah, that P47 absords damage quite well compared to others, paper crates)

Yak is another super plane   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) (I didn't die in it at all, though, I didn't either dive bomb in it, but flew twice through acks low)

But for the wonder for you all, I didn't fly Fw190A-5 more than once, as my first flight in months and only once in BF109 too, in G10.. though, somehow managed to get 5 kills, and collide into P38's fallin wing that made me ditch.

So, theres a bit of history, better than I expected after months of break and mouse using in Rogue Spear etc.

  (http://www.kolumbus.fi/fishu/render/k98s_mdl.jpg)  
Mauser Karabiner 98K - for rogue spear, as part of my project. (thats actually 3d model from the side)

*goes to whine into Rogue Spear how guns does not kill with headshot*

This 1.03 version heavily porked with score system, specially earlier patch where most of my landings were ditches on the runway. (and any flight instructor would had gave me 10 points for most of those landings  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif))

Yeah.. I found sometimes enemy planes popping to A1, once I did even get a kill right after I had got screenshot of that weird B-17 suddenly appearing middle of field.

Fishu keep working on the RS stuff if you are bored.  I'm tired of NATO and Lloyd's Mods.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Great WWII mod, but hard to find compatable online games. Looks really cool though.

Can they change levels so there isn't "The Big Red One" assaulting a embassy in 1999? Takes away from the immersion.

A Mauser Kar 98K??

LOL.

A piece of crap. 4 power scope; and 8mm load. Poor optics. Limited field of vision. A closed cross reticle; which worsens the sense of roaming. The balance is pitiful, and it's prone to jamming.. worse in cold weather. Nice bolt location tho.. averages 2 shots in 4.5 seconds.

My info has it that most German snipers preferred the Moisin-Nagant 91/30... when they could steal one from a dead Russian sniper.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Excellent optics; 7.62mm load, a post and sidebar reticle scope leaving the top of the field of vision open. The scope had internal elevation and windage adjustments. It was also mounted high enuff above the barrel for you to see under it and use the open sight for shots under 100 yards. Beautifly balanced and utterly reliable as was most Russian arms.. and in cold weather it worked just fine.

Thorvald got his ticket punched by Vasily Zaitsev in their sniper duel at Stalingrad using a Moison-Nagant..  and when they dragged Thorvald outta his blind feet first; they found the German Super Sniper had a Moison-Nagant clutched in his dead hands... round in the chamber.

In my sources Kar 98 were reliable rifle.
If you wan't better mosin-nagant, you would use Finnish conversions of mosin-nagant   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Simo Häyhä; +500 kills as a sniper, with rifles like M/27 (mosin-nagant conversion)
Also, those russian scopes had 2-3.5 magnification   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) (no wonder if you have more vision)
It is actually 7.92x57mm bullet, when russians uses 7.62x54mm bullet.
Lets also include here that americans used 7.62x63mm and brits used 7.7x56mm.

Now, back to sit oldtimer hangtime, your heart can't keep up with all that whining of yours.
