Title: sometimes the fun begins AFTER you get shot down
Post by: udet on June 03, 2003, 04:02:17 PM

whenever I bail out next to an enemy field, or an area with a high concentration of cons, I like to hang around and have the enemy planes come at me. It's quite easy to escape a strafing plane in AH, just move perpendicular to its path as he's nearing you. He won't be able to turn like that. Sometimes you even get kills from enemy planes crashing in your area. The other night I ended up in an enemy hangar, where I watched the field being attacked by our guys.
what can I say, it's fun, even though I usually get killed sooner or later. but what the hell, it's only a game
:)

Yes, It would be even more fun if that rifle they give you actually worked. You could snipe at other bailed out pilots and troops in parachutes.

Me and Waffen tried beating each other up on the ground, but it turned into a weak Ch1 roleplay of 'I punched you in the face' and 'I just stabbed you in the neck'.

Personally I hate when friendly "CHUTE"s hang out ON the field.  It gets real easy to killshooter yourself with a bomb dropped too close to the friendly.  I don't mind you hanging around watching, just stay away from any of the targets on the field.

You can rotate in your chute by moving the joystick.  Once you're on the ground you can move around by moving the stick, too.  Up to go forward, down to go back, left and right.  

I've tried to get collision kills against Ostis by running into their path, but the enemy usually strafes me with the hull machine gun before he gets too close.

There's no collision between two chutes on the ground.  Is there between a chute and a GV?

I second this.

I like to irritate enemy GV drivers by running around and inside their vehicles. You can sometimes provoke a kill shooter as one of their colleagues either tries to strafe you or machine gun you and hits their own side.

sometimes while on the ground I get 'check 6' from my countrymen...I always think: thank you, but a bit too late.
the real killers are not the enemy fighters, rather, the enemy fields flak guns.
