Once upon a time I upped a P40N to combat a P51D that was launching rockets at a field for de-acking purposes.  I took my time and extended out and grabbed E and alt while the P51D kept buzzing the small field de-acking, etc. I'd say withing 3 minutes of me upping I was turning back to engage.  The P51D saw me engage and as long as he had the complete advantage he stayed in the fight, but as soon as my little P40N out-scissored him and was able to reverse him he went nose down and ran over a sector away to RTB.  As he was running I said to myself aloud that I bet this joker is [insert name here]... I was able to keep up with him enough to watch him land and tower out and my hunch was right.  Ya see, in addition to nearly de-acking the field he was able to get a couple of vulches (not me).  It was that important to him to land those 2 kills than it was for him to stand and fight in a superior plane.

But alas... it was very typical of him and his squad mates to vulch then run for the name in lights.  They do it quite a bit.

I wont name their names. It should be rather obvious because their own countrymen call them out for doing so.  The running away stuff gets old.

pand NEVER fights. he will run from anyone and anything if he doesn't have 2 or more friends and alt to help him. The good sticks can and will fight in a 1v1 situation when on equal terms. Timid is not avoiduing the turn fight with a spit while in a 190. it's the absolute refusal to fight at all without an extremely high advantage of some sort other then personal ability.  no one from my list does any of that unless you count knowing were the the closest field with ack up is or were the most green guys to run to are as a skill

that would be a loooooooooooooooooooooong list :rofl

Ahhhh Pand is timid because he rocks your bellybutton and the fourth time you up he's RTB ammo =(

Man, you're a GREAT stick, but you are such a toolbag at the same time.

Dunno where you're getting that from. I was fighting him in a 4 on 2 in the AvA, advantage to my favor and he did very well...For a pony pilot against K4's. :lol I switched after that fight to even out the sides so it was 3 on 3 and when all of us met up in that little furball I didn't see a single person run, friendly or enemy, and it was quite fun.

I don't know his name, but the Nit flying a Dora I came up against last night has to be on top of the list. He was over 5K above me and climbing. I slowly climbed up behind him in a K-4 without losing sight and chased him 1 1/2 sectors before getting co alt 5K behind him. He turned and made 1 pass before running 3 more sectors. I finally ran out of gas and bailed.

LMAO not 1 time has he ever killed me without 2 friends to help him. I say he is timid because i have NEVER seen him stand and fight. he runs to ack at the first sign that the enemy pilot isn't AFK or if he does not have friends.


I think I saw Pand in the DA the other day, and now they say he's reversing people and engaging more aggressively! :aok


WHAT!!!! for real rock? Well as i said i'm going by what i have seen with my own eyes. but if this is true i really hope to meet him 1v1. Any newb can fly around and pick or gang or out right just hide ( all of which is all i have ever seen pand do ). But it is my belief that a good fighter will mix it up 1v1. at least when he has advantage or on near equal terms.

I thought I would at least make this list but no, I guess I am not good at anything  :furious :furious

Depending on the blog and the lifestyle <3 has two different meanings.

2. <3 = teabag. Are you really two dudes in love??

You like to hide behind berms. I sit in the open and wait on you to stick your head out. You are predictable and timid. And after losing you never fail to miss out on a chance to talk smack.

And since you might try to deny it. Someone has just asked where you are. I tell them you are currently fuming out a smack in the tower.

Post by: Paladin3 on January 26, 2013, 06:13:54 AM
Just wondering why folks think that disengaging is poor behavior? I mean really - thump your chest and cry if you must, but I will continue to disengage once I know I am fighting at a disadvantage. Must be my decade of military service that turned me into such a coward where I use my mind, SA, and think hey its time to retire the field and come back once I have ammo, speed, altitude, fuel, wingmen, what have you. Must have turned me into a real tool that I do not stick around once I loose my wingman so that I can go reset with them since we have built a squadron that flies together because we like working real teamwork (flying tactics) and don't like leaving a fella sitting in the tower.

Yup. Must be a coward.

Foolish to think that way isn't it? Do not fear, I do not. I know better. Just wanted some of you to feel better about yourselves - since you had to post on a board complaining about it.
Title: Re: the most timid
Post by: Debrody on January 26, 2013, 07:21:20 AM
Paladin, i think, you missed it.
I DO disengage sometimes. My plane cant handle the turnfight with spits, zeeks and brewsters. Or is it only me being that lame? Who knows. Also, i have friends to wing with, and i do it frequently. Nothing is a more impressive sight than 3-4 pilots beating 6-8-10, by winging.
Anyway. When its a 20k spit16/ki84/lala jumping on your 109G, BnZing you as long as he can, then running all the way til he finds friends or you have to brake due to his field ack...
Well, thats definiately a coward-ish behaviour in my book. I hope that you see the difference.

Flying smart is not being timid. Doras can't turn. So why would one stop and turn with a spit?

You can fly a 190 or 51 and still be aggressive without being timid or stupid. There are a few who can put up excellent fight in those birds without the requisite bait to have success.

Flying smart is not being timid. Doras can't turn. So why would one stop and turn with a spit?

Did i have amo? was i in a jet? How many red guys were with you? if i have amo i don't run from a 1v1

I was alone if memory serves correct.  So where you.  You were making several passes over and over me reversing you every time.

When I picture you saying "timid" I see David Niven.

David and I are a lot a like.  Shag a ton of arse, famous and have a lot of money.  Your problem is that you don't recognize talent.  Now, I would have been offended if you'd said Jack Black.  But you probably think he's cool.

I was BnZing you? and it was 1v1? unless you were in a brew i'm calling BS. 1v1 i will turn fight anything but a brew. And anyone who has flown with me can back me up on that. So i call BS. and you reversed each time? How did i do it multiple times them? for the 3rd time i call BS ace. Not meaning to call you lier just maybe your memory is failing you a little or your confusing me for someone else

That's a good name for those two clowns. I had to deal with them after you left. They'd come in at 20K, dive down HO and run......over and over and over and over and over. The last time I seen them they were headed east........they may be in Early War by now if they brought drop tanks.

Last night was funny. Dealing with those two tards, Rocky, and another couple, and then here comes a 15k Jug-M diving into the mix to "turn me" for them. When I say eff it and start doing it all back, they call me a whiner and a hypocrite.  Maybe I am, but I'm not going to tie my hands behind my back. They're not looking for a good fight, why should I? lol   I like SkyRock's description of them milking the community.   When I give someone a good fight, they appreciate it! I hear "that was the best fight I've had in years!" pretty frequently. How often do these timid guys hear that? Never.

Just wondering why folks think that disengaging is poor behavior? I mean really - thump your chest and cry if you must, but I will continue to disengage once I know I am fighting at a disadvantage. Must be my decade of military service that turned me into such a coward where I use my mind, SA, and think hey its time to retire the field and come back once I have ammo, speed, altitude, fuel, wingmen, what have you. Must have turned me into a real tool that I do not stick around once I loose my wingman so that I can go reset with them since we have built a squadron that flies together because we like working real teamwork (flying tactics) and don't like leaving a fella sitting in the tower.

Yup. Must be a coward.

Foolish to think that way isn't it? Do not fear, I do not. I know better. Just wanted some of you to feel better about yourselves - since you had to post on a board complaining about it.

What about a group of squaddies that CAP an enemy base, making it impossible for an enemy fighter to get any alt or speed before getting tag-team BnZed to death - and then calling that player an ack-hugger for refusing to get ganged? 

You're blatantly using ack to protect you and generate kills, because if you had ANY other motive you can up at a neighboring field and return to the one being vulched with a superior plane at a superior strategical position BEFORE all your ack was destroyed (thus increasing your strategial advantage with time - sooner is sooner.  You're waiting and flying circles in your ack at the base being vulched, because?...).

Because it takes too long to get back to the base from one a sector distant?

If you get vulched it's your own fault. You can look from the tower and see planes making passes on the runway. So why up and complain? Up from another field. Your average vulcher's SA is cut in half while vulching. Come from another field and get revenge  :devil

You upped a plane that turns better and he wouldn't turn with you? Why didn't you up a P-51D? Too timid to fly without a turn advantage?

I think that this thought is brilliant. Maybe I like it because Its biased towards what I've thought a lot of times.

I'd consider "timid flying" when you engage a plane with similar performance and once you detect the minimum signal that the fight is not going well...you start running. Anyway, I respect "timid" fliers or another kind of style.

It's been said that "timid" fliers could ruined the game. I don't believe so. I think "timid" fliers could bias the game towards an area some don't like. But, 1 vs 1 as "the only deserved way of flying" would bias the game as well to another area where It could be called "ruined" by others.

Just my thoughts.

If "runners" don't respect other players time enough to make the game worth playing, for the other as well as himself, then disrespect is what the runner deserves. Trying to call the community "complainers who want people to play their way" is to not recognize the passive-agressiveness of the runners disrespectfull actions.

Example: You show to play tennis against an opponent, and you have the court booked for an hour. He elects to serve first, you stand at the ready, and he proceeds to bounce the ball for 59 minutes. When you turn your back and walk toward the bench in disgust, he serves the ball into the service box and yells out "30-luv".  

Did he win? Is he "smarter" than you because his strategy worked? Do you admire him? Would you go back the clubhouse bar and tell everyone there that you respect that he chose to play the game "his way"?  If you heard another player complaining that he did the same thing to him, would defend the ball bouncers right to play that way?

But according to you, because there is no rule saying you can't bounce the ball for 59 minutes, no one should complain. We should all shut up and respect the ball bouncers of AH. 

I respectfully disagree. :salute

But you do understand (of course you do) that you're regarded as a pretty good stick, right?  You calling out a Spit for running doesn't have the same effect as me doing it.  The Spit driver is naturally thinking you're just baiting him (and rightfully so).  You're better able to turn a Dora and kill a more turny plane than the average guy.  Do you expect the timid to not know that?

It's like when Cobia (<3 Cobia  :rock) does his little dig at people running from his bomber.  He knows damn well he'll kill the vast majority of fighters so long as he's able to stay aggressive.  He just likes goading people while acting like he's an innocent bomber pilot.   :angel:

If we're really trying to change the gameplay, culture, etc., it's far better to take the pro-active approach like Changeup and others have.  If you want to make a stupid person smart, you'll have more long term success by trying to teach than rather than calling them stupid.

There is a huge difference between someone that stays aggressive and flies out to 5k, only to double back (after he finds help) to pick his original combatant.  I'm not saying you're one of this type, but that kind of gameplay is boring and doesn't progress the ability and/or fun of anyone in the game.

It's your job to kill him before he finds that help.  It's not his job to give you a fair fight.  You should've had the plane and the E and the gunnery to kill him before he could do that.  If you didn't, that's on you.

I disagree.  It's everybody's job to set themselves up to be able to kill as many of the opposing side as they can, however they can.  It is also everybody's job to be responsible for their own safety, not up under a vulch, avoid the gangbang, etc.

Possibly its my fault, but when i give something, i expect something back too. Nope, not that what i gave, just a little part of it. I will never ever say, only fight 1v1s in a many vs many situation, but when someone has all the cards plane-wise, also the opportunity to kill me in a fair fight (190 vs pony/jug/38, co-E, is that considered fair? or am i asking too much?), at least try. If an all around better plane is running away from an equal situation, its like shouting out loudly that "you are soooooooooooo much better than me" or "i have all the cards, but not the balls".

Its my point. Flame me, call me insulting, chest beating, what ever, i dont care any more. I have my own opinion about you. Out from this absolutely pointless "conversation", along with my insulting lingual difficulties.

It's your job to kill him before he finds that help.  It's not his job to give you a fair fight.

It also isn't my job to respect this style of game play. Can you imagine if you stayed in a defensible corner with mines around you in some 1st person shooter game? You would be immediately booted if a moderator was on, not because you can't play like that but because it is incredibly rude to other people.


You should've had the plane and the E and the gunnery to kill him before he could do that.  If you didn't, that's on you.

With that in mind, everyone would fly high alt P51s... wait, they already do.

I'm not asking for a Jackie Chan type of fight, where each attacker comes at you one at a time. Unfortunately, the decorum has deteriorated in AH to the point that 1v1s are generally avoided. Try it sometime, fly out and drag an enemy out away from the pack. Most of the time, he notices he is alone and he doubles back.

With that, I'm done with the thread as I'm not going to change anyone's mind.

Someone in a thread recently (may have been this one) gave a simple question to ask yourself while playing.

"If everybody played like this, what kind of game would it be?"

If you answer yourself honestly you'll know why your actions (or lack there of) are considered lame by many of us in the community.

Well, i dont know who is trying to insult who this time...  <sigh>

Anyway. I was flying the very worst turnfighter in this game. Often enough, low, almost on the deck. All i wanted was just a fight, and often enough, couldnt get it due to the opponents were running away.
I have no idea what else i can offer them as an advantage.
Guessing, its all my fault.

But heck, i would be really curious about what do you know, you trainer, you... in a private fight, of course.

I haven't insulted you. I made excuses for you. I understand your point, as I said before. I fly in the same arena. I merge in a P-51 and the bandit turns 180 and dives out. I engage 2 P-51s in a stall fight and a 190 blows through and oils me. I know how annoying it is. What I don't do is insult the players or complain about it. It's the MA, it's not a private duel.

What both of you are effectively saying is, you want your opponents to give you a chance that they don't have to.

I'm saying I don't want an arena where my opponents are doing anything less than their best to kill me and survive.  To me that's more fun, and less artificial than everybody committing to attack attack attack until they're shot down.  To me, that mentality is just slightly above HOing, because it's basically guaranteed you're going to get shot down.

Of course if people want to run that's up to them, as I watch them go I often think to myself: yup that guy doesn't want to fight. After I break off and he comes back, I think: he definitely wants kills though.  :lol

These are all symptoms....just symptoms.  The disease is score and how it affects status.  The people typing about fighting are generally the folks I know to NOT care about score...note I said people I know.   They know who they are.

Score to most relates as follows:

Score = skill level = should be respected by the community as a capable fighter without a need to either fight or prove ones score

There you have it.  Eliminate all scoring and everyone will fight.  Why?  No particular reason to stay alive except pride and that will get beaten out of your bellybutton quickly in an environment that's only pecking order tree is based on films of you beating the snot out of others because that requires real skill.

It's nonsense to expect every player in the MA to be duelling you.

Everybody is playing. They just aren't playing to your preference.
why do you keep saying "duel"...  this thread is an opinion piece on who we think are the most timid players in AH... it's simple...   I have been specific in my choice for most timid and I chose the player that always runs unless he is part of the ganging...  calling them timid is being too nice....  I now place you on the timid list as I bet you play this exact same way...  at least your stats suggest that.... when I see a vet only cherry picking, and running 3 sectors at the first sight of anything co-state, I lose respect for that player, and you coming in here defending that type of play means you're right there with them...  :aok

You and FLS keep defending their "right" to run, without explaining the rationell for running. If there is a good reason, I could be persuaded to respect it, and the player.

The effect of score on 'status' is often overrated.

As a frequently "top ranked" player for years, I can say

- almost nobody cares about it in the first place
- In case someone actually does, the derogatory remarks outnumber the 'admiring'  ones by at least 3-1. The latter ones usually coming from very new players only. Almost everybody else doesn't care if I'm ranked #1 or #855.

What they actually keep track of are the number of studs on the opposing team, not the score itself.  Having played sports at a high level and having a 10 year old son who plays, the kids know who the studs are the minute the game starts.  There are gamers and there are people who need a score to officially declare a victor.   I can tell you like scores, lmao!

Don't you think it has more to do with Timid Timmy lacking the confidence to fight on your terms?  In a P-38, I don't have the skill to engage and kill a Ki-84 unless I have some sort of an advantage.  I'm simply not good enough.

I think fighting is awesome.  Sometimes I mindlessly furball and fight in an effort to sharpen my skills.  Disadvantage be damned.  I mean, it is instructive.  You really do learn to push your a/c a little further, and that's a good thing.  I reach a point though, where I feel like I'm just being a dummy.  Up.  Shoot.  Kill.  Die.  Repeat.  Doing that over and over (or stone sober  :)) isn't really fun to me.  It's then I start trying to actually pay attention to stuff around me.  Yes, that means I'm actually trying to survive.  Sometimes that means discretion is the better form of valor, knowing one's limitations, and other profound expressions.

lol love the cheating accusation from TKO in your sig Snailman ;D

that guy is a real piece of work


With regard to the actual topic at hand, you just have to accept that there are more people that want to not die than there are people that want to have a good fight

Score or no score, sadly that is just the way it is. Most people are wired to feel that dying (even if it's only in a cartoon plane of which there are an infinite number in the hangar) is a negative thing and will do everything they can to avoid it

Die-hard fight at all costs types might say 'well that's fine, but why do they have to be so lame and decide to fight when they have a 3-1 advantage, or pick me when I find someone that DOES want to fight'  etc etc...

Again, sadly, that's just the way it is. Human nature. Cheap tactics and lack of sportsmanship are not limited to Aces High, but they are especially common because there is not much in the game to prohibit or discourage it. So from that we can assume that HiTech wants it that way.

They surely don't want the majority of their playerbase (i.e. the timid players) unsubscribing because they are suddenly forced into fair fights against players who will :ahand them every time...

It is so obvious, I am much more timid than all of you...

1. I never fight unless there are 10 friendlies against that single P40C.
2. I will never fly anything slower than a P51.
3. I always HO on the merge, especially if there are more good guys around than bad.
4. I engage, run and only reengage when the other guy is engaged with some one else.

You see bunnies, it is not possible to be more timid than me.

Ok, I'll take the proverbial whack at it.  While I'm not generally inclined to run from a somewhat fair 1v1, I'm sure most of you guys would consider my MA style timid depending on the situation you ran into me on.

Usually I log in, find the biggest red bar dar I can, and up far enough away from it to get there with alt.  Simply put, my goal when I fly is to push the enemy around airspace.  I'm there to stop them from moving forward, hit the bombers/heavy fighters that are trying to degrade our capabilities, and kill as many aircraft as I can pretty much in that order.  Stopping the advance goes hand in hand with hitting bombers most of the time.  

I like to land my kills.  Has precisely nothing to do with my name in lights.  Why do I do it then?  Because it means I did my job and survived to go home.  Anybody can go into a crowd and shoot at anything that comes into range and rack up some kills until they're picked.  Sure, it takes skill to survive for a long while doing it.  Only an idiot would say otherwise.

To me, playing that way is essentially not caring whether you live or die.  Constantly putting yourself in situations where you're inevitably going to get shot down to me is little different from taking a HO shot.  If you HO enough people, you're eventually going to die.  If you dive into a big enough crowd of red, you're eventually going to die.  Same difference.

Where I get my jollies is trying to figure out how to kill some of them and get away with it, rather than going down in a blaze of glory.  If I am not thinking of my exit strategy, it takes 3/4 of the tension away from the fight, because I don't have to worry about getting out of the situation I'm in.

There are pretty much 4 situations that will get me to get out of dodge:

1) 3 or more bandits with E are looking my way and I have no help.
2) Low fuel.
3) Low ammo.
4) Missing enough control surfaces or have taken enough damage to make me ineffective.  Usually some combination of ailerons and rudder.

I hope that makes some sense.

But as you said. You will fight the 1 v 1. Nothing wrong with not fighting 2+ rd guys. RTB low amo fuel ext isn't timid. you can fly smart and not be timid. timid is running from the 1v1 just because it's either co alt and equal terms or you don't have a friend or 2 to help you. Flying the way you describe in my opinion is flying both smart and with some balls. Not many will take on the hord alone even with alt.

Because it takes too long to get back to the base from one a sector distant? 

I'm interested in Caldera's question.  What about that group of people capping the base, making fun of someone who tries to up from it?

- oldman

So then it's the failed logic of the attackers then, who are flying one sector distance to wait and watch (or, like me, choose to not and roll the dice in the gauntlet (or maybe even try deacking)) red guys up to immediatley begin flying in circles around their ack guns, because we came looking about one sector for something to fight/kill.  Do I understand you, correctly?

Since "the wrong" is upon those "suckers" that are investing the time to fly one sector, yes?
Title: Re: the most timid
Post by: Wiley on January 29, 2013, 04:07:25 PM
I just realized my previous post left out an important component of why I think it's okay for people to run.

When I come into the enemy area with my alt, I usually hold all the cards on the first guy or two I engage, or at least am co-E with them.  I'm screaming in with smash looking for the high guys looking for a pick/defending buffs, then I'm looking for buffs, and if neither is in the area, targets of opportunity.  I work my way from the top down.

What a lot of people do when I come in at ridiculous speed is split-s and run to the crowd.  It's not a terrible move, ruins my shot unless my predictions are particularly good that day, and puts them into a stronger defensive situation.  I now have to come down into their crowd if I want to play.

Why is that wrong of them?  I've now still got my advantage, but I have a multitude of targets to problem-solve for and try to figure out where the next threat is.  I've also got to consider the dots co-alt out of icon range, whether they're friend or foe.  Etc etc.

Often while I'm doing this, there's a bunch of friendly guys doing their thing below 5k feet.  The guy that ran from me is now not in nearly as comfortable a position to pick as he was.  He's also looking over his shoulder at me because he didn't deal with the threat.  Maybe now more of my buddies have the E to be threats to him.

I'm also now in a position to attack or push down other bandits as I see fit.  I have achieved more control over the airspace all because the high con didn't engage me.

Of course, sometimes it'll be a guy that knows what he's doing and the high alt fight is on.

My point is, I created the advantages I'm using against them, they aren't giving me anything in that fight, and it's up to me to keep my advantage or fight well enough when I decide to give it up to survive.  If I get low and slow and someone outruns me headed to friendlies, I can't fault him for getting away from me.

To me, that feels more organic and 'real' than everybody being fearless and engaging when I come in with smash.

why do you keep saying "duel"...  this thread is an opinion piece on who we think are the most timid players in AH... it's simple...   I have been specific in my choice for most timid and I chose the player that always runs unless he is part of the ganging...  calling them timid is being too nice....  I now place you on the timid list as I bet you play this exact same way...  at least your stats suggest that.... when I see a vet only cherry picking, and running 3 sectors at the first sight of anything co-state, I lose respect for that player, and you coming in here defending that type of play means you're right there with them...  :aok

I brought up duels because the opinions expressed regarding MA players being obligated to engage are only reasonable expectations for duels.

I understand the OP just wanted to name and shame players.

I'm not defending timid flying, I'm defending a player's right to fly any way they please without being abused, because they pay to play the same as you do.

If you can believe I'm timid I don't mind.    :lol

FLS, although you're argument about paying players should be able to play they way they want to without harassment or ridicule may be valid to an certain extent, by the same token we as paying players have the right to expect what is considered "acceptable" play by the vast majority of players.

Case in point...bailing from bombers. Sure, you are allowed to bomb your target and are not forced to land, but most of the player base would agree that this is not acceptable game play.

I find it hard to believe that you yourself would not get miffed at the guy that would do nothing but swoop down from space, guns blazing in the head-on repeatedly and then running home to the safety of his ack. In real life that might be acceptable..I personally would be worried about court martial for cowardest.

But this isn't real life. It's a combat game meant to be played. Play it for Christ's sakes! The air races are in the SEA arenas.

I have no problem breaking off from the fight when advantage is lost or you're completely out numbered. But reset, come back and finish the fight. If out numbered at least try to drag out single cons for a 1vs1. Don't run clear across the map trying to avoid be shot down.
You as a trainer should know that this is time you need that ACM training under your belt. What's the point in training folks on ACM if you don't encourage them to use it?
Title: Re: the most timid
Post by: Vinkman on January 29, 2013, 05:53:31 PM
Ok, I'll take the proverbial whack at it.  While I'm not generally inclined to run from a somewhat fair 1v1, I'm sure most of you guys would consider my MA style timid depending on the situation you ran into me on.

Usually I log in, find the biggest red bar dar I can, and up far enough away from it to get there with alt.  Simply put, my goal when I fly is to push the enemy around airspace.  I'm there to stop them from moving forward, hit the bombers/heavy fighters that are trying to degrade our capabilities, and kill as many aircraft as I can pretty much in that order.  Stopping the advance goes hand in hand with hitting bombers most of the time.  

I like to land my kills.  Has precisely nothing to do with my name in lights.  Why do I do it then?  Because it means I did my job and survived to go home.  Anybody can go into a crowd and shoot at anything that comes into range and rack up some kills until they're picked.  Sure, it takes skill to survive for a long while doing it.  Only an idiot would say otherwise.

To me, playing that way is essentially not caring whether you live or die.  Constantly putting yourself in situations where you're inevitably going to get shot down to me is little different from taking a HO shot.  If you HO enough people, you're eventually going to die.  If you dive into a big enough crowd of red, you're eventually going to die.  Same difference.

Where I get my jollies is trying to figure out how to kill some of them and get away with it, rather than going down in a blaze of glory.  If I am not thinking of my exit strategy, it takes 3/4 of the tension away from the fight, because I don't have to worry about getting out of the situation I'm in.

There are pretty much 4 situations that will get me to get out of dodge:

1) 3 or more bandits with E are looking my way and I have no help.
2) Low fuel.
3) Low ammo.
4) Missing enough control surfaces or have taken enough damage to make me ineffective.  Usually some combination of ailerons and rudder.

I hope that makes some sense.

Wiley.

Wiley,

thanks for that. I can say that I agree with this whole thing, and play very much the same way. I will leave a fight if ganged, or I'm out of gas etc..  I don't really whine at runners, becasue they could have a ligit reason for running as you have explained. Every run is not the same. But do these career runners fall in the same category? True story....

Pilot, who has won the tour several times, shows up at 20k in a Pony on a very light action weekday morning. I'm at 12k in a 109k4. I push a very bad situation and climb as straight up at him as I can. He Climb away from me! not a single pass, no guns, no  nothing. I level out to get enough speed to keep him icon range. He turns for home at 28K. I persue. At 4K icon he goes nose down. I chase him for over two sectors at nearly 500mph. He tries to drag me over field ack at two different bases, but doesn't stop at the base, just makes me go around it to get more seperation. He eventually ends up at CV. I break off and lug the engine down just make it back to friendly territory where I ditch. I re-up back at the base and about 10 minutes into the sortie he's back. No eggs, no rockets, flying around looking for a con I supposed. SO I ablige by heading his way and off he goes...again. <sigh>

Seriously?  :rolleyes:

bottom line is, if someone flies the way I described, then it should not offend them to be called out for it... it is what it is... lame as hell!  Nobody is "abusing" anyone.... a critique by others should be expected, we have a scoring system, do you think it is abuse that a players rank is 3500?  Is HT abusing them by a system that ranks them that low?  No... it is what it is... if anything it should be an incentive to grow a pair and get off this list!  :aok

So then it's the failed logic of the attackers then, who are flying one sector distance to wait and watch (or, like me, choose to not and roll the dice in the gauntlet (or maybe even try deacking)) red guys up to immediatley begin flying in circles around their ack guns, because we came looking about one sector for something to fight/kill.  Do I understand you, correctly?

Since "the wrong" is upon those "suckers" that are investing the time to fly one sector, yes?


It may be that I don't grasp your response (I find it happens often these days).  I understood from Caldera's post that there are people capping a base who make fun of someone who ups against their superior numbers and circles in his ack.  I don't understand why they would make fun of him.  Presumably they (or at least all of them except you) don't want to fly into the ack because they risk getting shot down.  They would prefer that the target of their scorn up from a distant base so that they will be free to strafe the ack, or come out of the ack at an altitude disadvantage so they can vulch him, or do whatever else people do when they're part of an unopposed bunch capping a base.  That strikes me as far more timid than the action of the defender climbing in his ack.

Hey, if you let the guy climb up a bit he might just come out of the ack and give you a fight.  Wasn't that what you wanted?

Don't you think it has more to do with Timid Timmy lacking the confidence to fight on your terms?  In a P-38, I don't have the skill to engage and kill a Ki-84 unless I have some sort of an advantage.  I'm simply not good enough.

I think fighting is awesome.  Sometimes I mindlessly furball and fight in an effort to sharpen my skills.  Disadvantage be damned.  I mean, it is instructive.  You really do learn to push your a/c a little further, and that's a good thing.  I reach a point though, where I feel like I'm just being a dummy.  Up.  Shoot.  Kill.  Die.  Repeat.  Doing that over and over (or stone sober  :)) isn't really fun to me.  It's then I start trying to actually pay attention to stuff around me.  Yes, that means I'm actually trying to survive.  Sometimes that means discretion is the better form of valor, knowing one's limitations, and other profound expressions.  

 :salute


I think Timid Timmy has simply found he can get kills and land them for all the world to see while mostly managing to avoid playing the actual 'game' completely. Of course thinking in absolutes isn't useful.

Your second paragraph is interesting. Is your internal purpose to fight hard and try to win in this circumstance or to try and experiment with your ACM and expand your technique?


hmmmm, this feels like an insult

It can be but not necessarily.

Yesterday I was flying a Mosquito against a Ki-84 flown by one of the Nippon Gyogyoukyoudoukumiai. We began roughly co-e but he refused to manoeuvre with me and broke off to climb until he could set up a BnZ-based fight. I do not know that I could have defeated him in a manoeuvring fight but I was willing to try and he was not, he played it safe and arranged the fight in the safest way possible for himself by way of superior climb rate.

He was looking for a kill, I was looking for a fight. He got what he wanted but I didn't. Arguably he was smarter to secure every advantage possible especially if his emphasis is on 'winning' but it doesn't make for good gameplay. 

In my opinion just how much advantage players find necessary to secure before engaging is a good measure of how timid they are.

No because there are infinite ways an opponent can fight you if you break it down to a matter of maths, geometry and physics. But it is an ambition one can aspire to indefinitely.

I don't like elitism in this game, I find it is like a cancer that slowly sucks the life out of the arena. It is the diversity that keeps me entertained and keeps the arena alive. Elitism is in fact the plateau that halts progress, nothing else.

Are you sure? I see a lot of people complaining in the MA and on the boards about excessive and habitual running. I see some people defending their right to play that way...not defending the play style. Very very few have actually defended it. Please do not confuse every extend, or every exit from combat as the same thing. Wiley summed up nicely that there are times to leave a fight. That is not what the OP was asking. He's asking which players make their entire strategy about never engaging a target that will engage them back. Such players exist. There is no evidence supporting the community being split their opinions about their play. You and FLS assume silence means players support them. Those that are vocal, are a statistical representation of both sides. So if more people vocalize displeasure for something, than support it, that is the best evidence of community stance on a subject. Assuming the contrary is fantasy.  

To Batfink,
Yes elitism is at the center of this for some, but not me. I do not think of myself as capable of playing a certain way because I'm better than those who chose to play another way. I am a sportsman. I have played organized, and un-organized team sports for over 40 years. I understand the value of sportsmanship on game quality. Poor sportsmanship, at its core, is not being able to handle losing. Fun, respect, civility, and quality game play all take a back seat to doing what ever it takes not to lose. The "Game" is lost and only an argument exsits to be settled. This is why there are two sayings...

Winning isn't everything...It's the only thing.

and

It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game.

I've never believed Winning is everything.  And I've never respected those who do, and chose not to play with them when possible. :salute

Realism the the only answer.  Those seeking a realistic experience (in this case, not dying) are probably going to try to fly their planes 'as they did in the war', which we all know was more picks and afk kills than romantic, white knuckle dogfighting.  They're playing the game a different way.  A way that is in stark contrast to how others play.  Therein lies the conflict.

Personally, I use the scenarios for the 'immersion' aspect.  I'm all over the map in the MA.  Sometimes I'm flying super aggressive, flinging myself into absolutely stupid situations and other times I'm trying to fly 'smart'.  I really can understand both sides of it.

Yes I've thought this might be a possible option as well. The idea that a player wants to emerse themselves in a real war scenario. But what happens here is so unlike the real war. I still think this would be time bound. Do it for a while, then move on to something else. I wouldn't begrudge a person doing this for a tour or a week or a day to have the experince, but they should realize they aren't adding to gameplay experience for others, and should not make it a perminent style of play.  :salute

While I don't understand how someone always plays the game the exact same way every day and doesn't get bored, I can't say I think it's the responsibility of one guy to change the way he plays just for the good of everyone else.  I think the onus is on each of us to find the type(s) of gameplay that float our boat.  Like ACE said, telling someone they're doing it wrong, even if there was an actual right and wrong, won't really do much. 

I do have a possible compromise though.  If everyone, at least one night a week, played the game piss drunk, there would be much more fighting.   :cheers:

Like any other multiplayer game (that vasts swathes of this community have never played, or at least not in recent memory - which is fine) there are ways to play certain classes.

Snipers aren't "timid" because they don't get right up in an assaultman's shotgun range... on the contrary, the ones that do are quickly shot in the face with said shotgun.

In THOSE games, instead of coming to the forum and attempting to disparage said "timid" snipers, one either grabs a sniper rifle, or sneaks up and knifes the crap out of them (which is far more awesome).

If you are tired of someone running from you, get in something faster or play smarter, etc... people want their happy meal THEIR way, right now, and when they don't get it they throw a fit on 200.

It's old.

Enjoy the entire plane set.  Enjoy Aces High.

I am stating the facts. In this thread the ratio of players mocking runners to supporting them is 17:9.  So the cummunity  (with best and only facts in evidence) is against this strategy by ~ 2:1.   :salute

No assumptions. See above.  :salute

Your logic is as fallacious as your statistical analysis is wrong. You lack any facts at all. You are "assuming" that the majority of players are all vociferous blowhards like most who post in the BBS. Since the number of BBS members is only a small fraction of the player base, your argument falls through the floor, you have absolutely no idea what they think. Your 2:1 ratio is in no way a benchmark for those in the "do not judge others on their playing style" and those windbags who "want everyone to play their way" crowds. Not everyone who reads these threads post in them. Everything is nothing more than each persons personal perspective. Own your opinion, but stop before assuming your opinion is shared by anyone else, because you surely do not own mine. It really is funny if you look at which sides rhetoric includes calling others names and putting them down when most on the "other" side are not even really disagreeing with them, only pointing out how ridiculous they are. Sometimes kids think it's okay to be cruel online and that this is the social norm in online communities. Bullying involves a power play: trying to make someone else feel weak and helpless, while inflating the bullies own value. It is truly disturbing that adults act in this manner. Their lives must be in a shambles if they need to over compensate like this. It is funny how mad the bullies get when others start calling them names and picking on them for some perceived fault. Why do so many threads end in name calling and no tolerance of different point of views? It is shameful.

excuse me but I believe that skill can be measured by the amount of win you get

A fight's purpose is to decide who wins it, and it takes more than pretty ACM to win it.

take that bnz ki84 from earlier, trying to kill it at all cost is skill, ki84's have a weakness in a nose down fight. Giving up and accepting defeat because the nmy is a timid bnzer is just weak, if you're that skilled you should be able to exploit the choice of tactic.

I find skill in AH is a lot about being adapted, being able to switch from tnb to bnz in a blink, from offensive to defensive, to read what the opponent is thinking. Skill is not only engine control and pop them flaps.

Yes I've thought this might be a possible option as well. The idea that a player wants to emerse themselves in a real war scenario. But what happens here is so unlike the real war. I still think this would be time bound. Do it for a while, then move on to something else. I wouldn't begrudge a person doing this for a tour or a week or a day to have the experince, but they should realize they aren't adding to gameplay experience for others, and should not make it a perminent style of play.  :salute

'Real war scenario' is not precisely how they're looking at it though.  What is going on around them doesn't have to be anything like the real war.  I've known and flown with a couple guys who flew like this quite a bit moreso than me.  I'll never forget one guy I knew calling out a bandit 'on the deck', I looked at my altimeter and did some quick math...  this bandit on the deck was at 10k feet give or take. ;)  We still ride him about that comment years later.

The basic idea is, survival is paramount.  You stack the deck against them, giving them as few possible avenues to retaliate as possible.  Most of the time, this is done with alt and a fast moving aircraft.  Occasionally with numbers, but most of the guys I've flown with weren't that keen on the gangbang unless a singleton dove into the middle of us.  Doubleteaming a singleton with wing tactics was a whole different matter.

That's the 'realism' they're talking about.  Doing everything in your power to give them as little chance to get you as possible, as though your life depended on it.  I fly on the more aggressive end of the conservative spectrum.  I'll go in after people in a crowd if I think I can get away with it.

I generally assume my opponents are trying to do the same to me as well.  I expect the ack run, I expect the run to friends.  I expect the guy with alt on me to come get me.

The way I look at it, never expecting a fair fight makes whatever they throw at me feel somewhat fair, if that makes some kind of sense?

Wiley.

Exuse me, sir, ki84 vs mossie, are you kidding, right?
And nope, the nippon guys have no skill in my book.
Flying your planes ability is being effective. Pulling the impossible, beating the opponent in his own game, now that is is being skilled in my book.

What is skill btw?
-SA is, no doubt. Its natural, noone is expected to turn a Pony with a Spit, nor to fly in a 5v5 like it was an 1v1. Still, there is a difference being skillfully cautious and timid. When its an equal situation and your plane has all the advantages, but you still choose to run... now, thats being timid, in my terms.
-ACM is skill too. Its a straightforward way to decide where is my place amongst the other players.
-also there are other things like gunnery, communicating, planning, reading the map, etc etc, all being a part of being "skilled"

Right you are.  At least to me.  But some would call skillful caution to be timid.  I remember several months ago being in an 1A on my way to a base take with some of my squaddies involved.  I found a lone F4F coming in to try and save his base.  I made BandZ passes.  Took a piece or two.  Green guys comes in.  Doesn't ping the guy I don't think, but he was engaging.  I make one last pass, take his wing and F4F falls to the earth.  I immediately get a PM about how I was too scared to engage him and I should go back to the TA.   :rolleyes:  I wasn't trying to be a puss.  I was trying to fly my plane smartly and kill the other guy.  Made sense to me, but apparently not everyone.

Every second an enemy plane fighter is over town puts the troops and troop carriers in jeopardy.

Many base takes, I watch a single c205 strafe down every single troop and M3/LVT while 13 green planes circulate above.

If you're involved in a base take.......take the base.

No, they're actually not timid for the most part - they aren't timid about letting the real timid players clear their 6 or 12, they aren't timid about clearing that player's 6 or 12 either, they aren't timid about getting into the fight or dyeing while the real timid players wait on the edge for opportunity or takeoff running home at the first sign of loosing the advantage.  They like the timid players, they become friends with the timid players, they encourage the timid players - why?  Because they have a successful give and take relationship.

The frustration/heat/trolling comes in when they think they can compete with most in a 1v1 scenario, that they are the best in that regard.  They also avoid loosing situations that the majority do not - if you avoid the fights you're loosing or going to loose, and are thus only engaging in fights you have the advantages with and are winning.

While a timid player can be a very logical player, and maybe even a talented fighter stick, he is still timid and likely for more than one reason avoids an uphill battle.


If you're thinking of who I'm thinking of SQUAT, why not just rub the salt in the wound that this individual learned/hid/knocked-off-his-training-wheeles under a different name(s) than the one he's using now, and one we used to be familiar with being much less logical or skilled.  I know why people change styles and tactics, but I still fall short on comprehending why some people put so much value on a name and its name/reputation/legacy that they must contemplate the logic behind a purge and abandoning their old ones.  I find that scars and tarnish is what gives one character.

No because there are infinite ways an opponent can fight you if you break it down to a matter of maths, geometry and physics. But it is an ambition one can aspire to indefinitely.

This goal isn't facilitated by the company of timid players.


I don't like elitism in this game, I find it is like a cancer that slowly sucks the life out of the arena. It is the diversity that keeps me entertained and keeps the arena alive. Elitism is in fact the plateau that halts progress, nothing else.

What diversity?

take that bnz ki84 from earlier, trying to kill it at all cost is skill,


Rather simplistic view. You don't think that securing advantages before you engage requires less skill when you actually do? If the Dewoitine D.520 was included in AH would you fly it?


ki84's have a weakness in a nose down fight.

Thank you Nuke, can I PM you later to get some more Ki-84 tips?


Giving up and accepting defeat because the nmy is a timid bnzer is just weak, if you're that skilled you should be able to exploit the choice of tactic.

Giving up? I only gave up when one wing went bye bye and I found I was unable to get the nose back up by working the throttle on my one remaining engine.


Skill is not only engine control and pop them flaps.

Yes because that's all I do. Sigh.

I'd keep going, but you ge the point.

As for your lack of belief in statistical sampling, Polsters can predict who is going to win the presidency by sampling one tenth of one percent of the electorate. In an election, voter turn out is never 100% it's closer to 60% My quick 26 people servey is one half of one percent, or 5 times that which is required to acurately predict the winner of the presidential race. Hence the evidence would suggest it is enough to gauge the opinion of the larger AH community more acurately that your opinion is. But I'm not here to attack you so I'd like to move back to the discussion....

In social environments where interaction among participants is required, Rules and law can't cover everything. Social norms develop. (holding doors open for women, eating with mouth closed, not farting in confined spaced, brushing your teeth, cutting your grass and taking care of your house, shovelling your sidewalk when it snows, not blasting your stereo so your neighbors have to listen to it.) Social feedback is how you know you're doing it wrong. bullying is when it's done out of personal defect by the bully. When it's thecommunity, with mojority concensus say, "Hey can you get your act together." In this thread some are trying to vet which if this "timid" behavior, warrants social feedback. I believe it has an impact on those that listen to how they play. I have found that what I have learned on the BBS has helped my gameplay and how I see and respect the community.

If your point is that I am all of those things you need to re-examine my posts, and don't take your anger at some "bullys" out on me. I am in a different place on this.

Thank you. :salute

I understand that man, I understand that it annoys a lot of players also. For me, I play the game because I like the fantasy that I am a fighter pilot in WWII. That's what attracted me to the game and above all other motives for me continuing to subscribe it is what keeps me here. Yes, I like down and dirty dogfights that have no relation to real life engagements. But I also like encountering someone who is terrified of being killed and runs half a mile when they see me. I also take a perverse pleasure in the fact that just my opening defencive move has watermelon them up so badly that they don't even want to be in the same sector as me.

 People wanting to stay alive is the epitome of realism for me in the main arena. Likewise, encountering someone reckless and hellbent on destroying me no matter what else happens is also highly realistic. It takes all types to make a great game like aces high just as it took all types to join the air force and do this stuff for real back in the day. Encountering only one mindset in the arena would destroy my fantasy world.

I would go further Dr. Changeup and say that it is a manifestation of an increasingly results-focused and egotistical Western culture announcing primarily as an insecure symptomatic mismatch betwixt words and deeds, the newly installed 'Kill Club' section of our forum being a prime example of the value of presentation over content.

It's not the 'score' as such, it's how 'products of the above culture' interpret their defeats in this Virtual Environment.

Quote VuduVee: hmmmm, this feels like an insult

I got that feeling too

Especially since I concurred with this: Quote Nrshida: I don't believe there was an implication that the MA should be duels only. Rather that more fighting and less running makes for more, well, fighting  dancing banana

Of course if people want to run that's up to them, as I watch them go I often think to myself: yup that guy doesn't want to fight. After I break off and he comes back, I think: he definitely wants kills though.  Hehe!

We'll merge, maybe ho, then keep flying straight until we are out of Icon range!

Does leave me with one question though, lately I've taken a liking to resorting to dragging a 1st merge HO'er through the ack for a pass or two, kind of like my own little version of returning the favor since I refuse to HO in almost all circumstances; does that make me timid?

1st thing I notice is Chalenge (who btw isn't) spouting his drool and then posts a GV kill? Comical isn't even close to the word I would use to describe that post.
Then when challenged to an actual fight disappears from the thread entirely.   Debrody -->> :ahand <<--Chalenge

My personal Top 3 list would be.
Chalenge
Rocky
Dredlock

There are many more but they pale in comparison to these 3 characters. :bhead

For all the potential responses you could have said in a thread about being timid you choose to state the obvious.
Unsurprisingly you thought you were funny, everyone else just saw it as stupid.
Could you also be timid?
Knowing you are unable to say anything witty you resort to stating nothing of value.

You should refrain from posting, if you can't offer any value.
Otherwise you may find yourself the source of many jokes
Understanding that all this talk about being timid may have left your butt hurt, I'll let you try and walk it off... this time...

Thank you for admitting your timid behavior in the best way you could, cheers  :cheers:

Debrody I dont waste my time with anyone in the DA. Never have. You, among all the other offers, have nothing worth showing.

I have film of an encounter with SHawk online. He got caught with his pants down trying to punk a base for score points. When he realized how fast he was going to get into trouble he runs, which is immediately. He then proceeds to shoot the water. The water! This I know is something that is taught in the DA. I see Muppets dumping ammo at every launch. Now SHawk does it.

None of you have anything worth knowing. Really.

We have all these threads about the best fighter and acm and what not. so i have decided to ask the question. Who are the most timid players in AH? off the top of my head my list goes as follows but not in any kind of order and only from what i have seen with my own eyes. it's a short list but it's only the start  :devil

Pand
Rocky
Pjk
Marlin1




What SQUATS whine thread really meant to say.......Players that wont play as "SQUAT Wants Them Too". or another    "Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song"

Bout right up there with his logic to complain that I dropped his Tiger 2 with 1000lbs at TT.....Dont up it if you not for possibility you MIGHT loose it.....ie soon as you do go postal about how unfair it was other player got better of you.

I kill Tanks via GV and Via 1000lbs and I make no excuses, and I get bombed/killed all the time one thing you wont see me doing is berating/crying too them for doing it, its part of the game and what makes it fun for me.

I think as soon as the realization is reached that people will in fact do all that they can to survive....."schocking" I know, and do everything they can to kill you. The more enjoyable the game will become for a lot of people.
There are a 101 ways to die in MA....if you prefer a more controlled enviroment play SIMS or something. Or of you prefer more of the 1vs1 go to the DA becuse you seldom gonna find it in MA.  :cheers:

Lol.


Most timid.... hmmm.....

quite honestly I dont know who I could call timid. I dont really pay attention to the ones that run from the fight. If they want to tuck their junk between their legs, dive and run home because they lost advantage they can go, I'm not going to dive with them and follow them all the while draining my E state because they don't know how to fly defensive.

I guess If I HAD to call one person out for being timid it would be Rapier. I have never once seen Rapier at a lower altitude than any other aircraft in an engagement. If one gets close, he's gone. Maybe that's just my observation but with the statistics he has it would make sense that it's the norm.

Post by: tunnelrat on February 01, 2013, 08:56:50 AM
Maybe I am in the minority, but when I stopped worrying about my score my ability to have fun in the game was no longer dependent upon:

1.  Climbing to 15-20k before I entered any engagement

2.  Staying away from heavily outnumbered situations

3.  Whether or not I was currently doing "well" as the barometer for whether or not I was having fun.

Now, I fly whatever I want, I reverse back into certain death to see if I can take one or two of the seven chasing me with me (almost ALWAYS nets at least one maneuver kill as they fall over each other trying to get you first) and a lot less time flying back to land my meager kills.

This is not to say that score chasing is bad, that climbing out and flying in formation is bad, that doing everything you can to survive is bad... I've just discovered that it is not my cup of tea.

It's an FSO-level dose of awesome to fly with the guys from the 4th FG, wingman tactics, tactical coms (until I start drinking  :uhoh) and yeah, they fly fast planes fast and at the edge... they don't "pick and run", but their collective efforts certainly net them more kills than deaths.  And it's fun to fly with them (as they are gracious enough to let me tag along, from time to time).  Not having that focus, I'll never be as good as them at what they do, just like I will never be as good at dog fighting as someone who flies in the DA 24/7.  But to disparage either playing style is intellectually dishonest.  I watch Pand kick the piss out of Squat constantly... different planes, different situations... and Squat's answer is to try to call him out on 200 or the BBS because he still hasn't figured out how to reverse a diving pony =(

"But 80!," You say... "Your score has always been trash!"... I will neither deny that fact, nor the fact that addiction is easier to kick before it becomes firmly entrenched.

And, interestingly enough, before I started flying the K4 (which I am... challenged by... to say the least) my "score" was a positive K/D which it very rarely is for any length of time.  And that's flying planes that can't outrun everything else in the game.

So, thanks Ink for starting me on this path... and specifically sc0tch, RedBull, and Krupnski for working with my mildly-retarded bellybutton to figure out this whole "Aye See Em" thing or whatever you call this sorcery...  and a huge thanks to Pand for teaching me 95% of what I know about the game... it takes all kinds to make Aces what it is.  The wimps are the ones who start trash on the forum because they got their ego bruised in game.

I don't depend on the fractional difference in weight of my plane to kill the other fella, I depend on acm and gunnery...  Isn't Challenge the one who was complaining about F3 mode in the DA also?  Like F3 is going to help someone...  :rofl   wait...  :rofl

You are right, it makes a huge difference. My ACM totally collapses in F3 mode. Seriously! Been there, tryed that back in the day.

I'm not say anyone can just hope in and be good at F3 mode. It takes practice like anything else. But how can it not be an advantage when you have no restricted views what so ever. I used to play Nascar and other racing games on Playstation back in the day, and when I went from F3 mode to inside the car it was 10 times more difficult. Why wouldn't the same apply to this game?

But I don't want to highjack this thread any further....I'm enjoying the topic at hand  :D We'll debate this at another time.  :salute

Debrody I dont waste my time with anyone in the DA. Never have. You, among all the other offers, have nothing worth showing.

I have film of an encounter with SHawk online. He got caught with his pants down trying to punk a base for score points. When he realized how fast he was going to get into trouble he runs, which is immediately. He then proceeds to shoot the water. The water! This I know is something that is taught in the DA. I see Muppets dumping ammo at every launch. Now SHawk does it.

Now we all know what the 'S' in your name stands for, because smack and excrement are what you're full of there mullet-man.

You're pathetic in life and in game.

The Muppets dump ammo?  What does decreasing your Hit %, have to do with flying timid?   At least the Muppets will fight.

I can assure that you haven't a clue of what you speak MetaTron.  I know exactly how you and your ilk fly, as do all of us (Lyric is the lone exception, as he doesn't mind getting his hands dirty and I applaud him for it).   Call out fields in the MA and I will accept, although we all know what answer will be given.   Scott wasn't talking smack, he is telling the truth.   There is a huge difference.   As far as being pathetic in life, you have the market cornered in that aspect, BAR NONE.  The only one talking smack, is yourself.  "I won't DA you, because I know I don't stand a chance."  

As someone who has gone out of his way on Family Vacations to catch dinner with Scott, I can assure you that he is far from "pathetic".  However, maybe your squaddie Lyric (who I have met a few times in Dayton) could show you finer points of social graces?  Lyric is both a gentleman and an excellent folding chair breaker who is poles apart from your insecurities.  What pisses you off is the mere fact that you were mentioned and most deserving.    :aok

I would encourage all that I duel to jump in F3 mode, dump their ammo, whatever they feel is comfortable for them...  but to say that someone is better because of F3 mode I would completely disagree... they are only going to be as good as their fluid counters, and that will never change.  :aok

Why would you chase a plane you can't catch?

A better question is:  Why chase a plane you can't (or don't want to give up the E for) catch, get on 200 and talk trash, and then decline a DA invite?

The best answer I got was basically, "because I'd rather type than fly my airplane.  It gets boring circling 8k above a furball for an hour".

CryRock, I have never ran from you.  I do, however, recall "picking" your C-hog that was vulching in the horde on that last Greebo map.  And I do recall your F4U at 20k that kept trying to drag me to your puffy.  I also remeber fighting your pony on the previous map too.  Fight lasted quite a while until some greenies jumped in and you dove for ack.  Not blaming you for diving to the ack, completely understandable.  I know it was you because I got an assist.  You don't like that I fly my jug in at 15k?  Fine.  You don't like that I generally refuse to up from capped fields?  That's fine too.  But as far as running?  From you?  Lol.   :lol

But if there is one thing I am certain of as I am certain the sun rises in the East, it is that you cry and cry and cry on 200.  Jesus Christ you like to complain.  Please forward future moaning in the following format...

I suggest a fun-filled DA session at multiple alts.   Smack-talk will turn to reality from one or the other and if its a tie over an hours-worth of fighting, mutual respect will ensue.  Anything else is just cute verbal masturbation which doesn't fall into any category of fun.

There once was a player named acolito that wallowed in a pervasive level of suckiness that no man could hope to find his way out of.  One day while sitting in his wingless plane as it plunged from the skies after being smacked around, he had an epiphany.  He realized it was the name that was causing his plight and if he changed it, he would be super awesome and one of the "AH Elite".  This is how 00Seven came into being.

The moral of this tale folks is if you want to improve your flying and fighting skills, just changing your name is not the way to do it.

CryRock,


Do I think you know how to fight?  yes... but it is very obvious, that lil fighter score thingy is in your mind by the way you approach fighting in the MA... and it makes you look timid... by your choices of engagement...

Now, talking about getting butt hurt?  obviously this hurts your butt to make the list, or you wouldn't have come in here and misled these folks about the Greebo map encounter... if you don't like being called timid, then don't play timid.  At least when you know I'm in the area, up in attack mode so you can fight with some balls without bothering your fighter score...

 do it for me messy... I want you to be a fighter not only on the score page, but in action!  :aok

No clue why anybody in the late war main arena would want to go to the dueling arena to settle something started in the late war main arena.

The fuel burn being 1.0 guarantees a 110 can climb to 30,000 feet on 25% fuel and have minutes to loiter or a spit XIV can fly from one end of the map to the other and almost all the way back on 50% fuel.

Airplane fuel loadout is just as important a choice as anything else and the dueling arena removes this important facet.

Could you tell me how you arrived to your assumption? Because it's possible that I don't agree with you?

I consider what is usually referred as "talking smack" to be exactly the same as "acting like a moron". Something totally different to good natured banter.  I don't "talk smack". I will sometimes respond if someone starts to whine after I shot them down, usually by telling them why they got shot down.

If I am talking smack to you I most likely don't like you. Why would I want to go spend time 1 on 1 with someone I do not like?

The dueling to settle arguments over 200 makes no sense.

To settle the differences...or are you going to act like a donkey just because its the easier thing to do? Bunch of people I've met on AH came from settling disputes, going into the DA, then becoming friends. I just had a case like this not even two weeks ago, with MountyX.

dueling can only settle arguments like one guy says "wow you suck you need those 12 friendlies to kill me"  guy responds "ehh would have happened if it was 1vs1"  the response would be "DA" and then they go to DA and find out if that guy needed his 12 friends......

if someone is acting like a moron it does not matter How he plays or what he can do in the DA....he is still a moron. :aok


also DA is great for practice for the MA.... great for learning the ins and outs of dogfighting...or BnZing.....or ganging if you want :rofl

Could you tell me how you arrived to your assumption? Because it's possible that I don't agree with you?

I consider what is usually referred as "talking smack" to be exactly the same as "acting like a moron". Something totally different to good natured banter.  I don't "talk smack". I will sometimes respond if someone starts to whine after I shot them down, usually by telling them why they got shot down.

1. Don't you  fly around in a brew and swear it's not easy mode???????????

2. When i was new a squady explained it the best by saying " The DA is like the playground of AH. It's as close to a 1v1 fist fight you can get on AH and serves the same purpose. What ever that purpose is "

I wonder why no one complains about the Zeke  in the same way they do about the Brewster? Shouldn't a well flown late war fighter be more than a match for a well flown Brewster? I would suggest that WMaker is pretty damned sharp in most planes, and is lethal in the Brewster simply because he's a good stick and fights his own fight. :old:

I dont like the way you fly. You think you are a "big boy" or some uber expert of your plane, me - not so much. Im angry at you, call you to the DA, where you whoop my arse in the ride of a common choice, then i admit that youre better. Everyone can walk away happily.

And yea, you used to say that the brewster is not easy mode... well, sure. Any ways, it takes some uber expert ACMs to come from above and copy the opponents moves...  :neener:

There is a reason i challenged you to the DA a couple weeks back, you know.  :old:

If you don't like the way I fly and are angry to me because of that, why would you be any happier with the way I fly after I would shoot you down in the DA? I do realize you weren't entirely serious here but thought I'd ask anyway.

For an uber easymode plane Brewster sure gets a little flight time from players. Why do you figure that is?

Perhaps you mean it's easymode in that it turns well but not so easy to survive when faster opponents are b&z:ing you.

No worries, your attitude, general behavior or your persona isn't for my taste either.


Anyway, you think you could really beat me in the DA? Not trying to sound too much cocky or anything, but you must be really outta practice flying the "only-the-SA" plane...

I don't usually really think or speculate either way if I haven't dueled ever someone or the last time was a long time ago. I usually leave "I will so kick you a** in the DA just watch me!" -comments to this small group half-wit blow hards which are rather vocal here as well. I do consider myself somewhat rusty at the moment. As the general activity of the Finns has gone down over the years, my dueling has become rather non-existent as well. I used to do it a lot more maybe ~five years ago. Also my flying time in general isn't anywhere near where it used to be.

What is "only-the-SA" plane"? Brewster, Dora, something else? What did you mean by your comment? I guess I didn't get it.
Title: Re: the most timid

Ripley,
never stated that the Brewster is über. I only said, it requires no real ACM usage to be successful in it - as you said, avoid the situations where you are being BnZed and youre golden.

Maker,
im glad you dont like me - if this means im not like you  :aok
I dont know where anyone mentioned the Dora in this thread... im somewhat confused... you wanted to point out that i was flying a pick-n-run plane? Bringing this line one step further, i might only pick and run, only using my SA? Well... let them decide!
 :lol

To answer your entirely serious question: if you give me a duel, you give me a fight, ergo, i get what i ever wanted. A fight. Is it that hard to get?  ;)

Now you are just putting words into my mouth.

You said:

...so I wanted to know what you meant by it and which one of the planes I fly you consider to be this mysterious "only-the-SA" plane. I brought Dora up because it's one of the planes I often fly, the other one is a Brewster. Simply put, I wanted to know which one of these is this "only-the-SA" plane and what does this term mean? I didn't say a thing about which planes you fly or don't fly. I'm guessing there's some sort of miss-communication issue here.

EDIT/...or did you mean plane as a mathematical/plane=surface -figure of speech type of way?/EDIT


To answer your entirely serious question: if you give me a duel, you give me a fight, ergo, i get what i ever wanted. A fight. Is it that hard to get?  ;)

Fair enough. But like I said, I can't really see the connection between not liking how I fly and what a duel would do to change that.

I've gone to the DA after being called out and after calling someone out and won or lost but almost every time no matter how contentious the pre-DA exchanges we've walked away friends.

That's pretty much been my experience too.  Although I did learn to quit calling folks out (typically occurs after getting shot down) since it generally resulted in a spanking.  I now tend to PM after being shot down (if I don't understand why I got kilt) with questions.  This is a much better way to learn what I did wrong as it results in way less humble pie and animosity up front but still gets ya the information.  If it leads to the DA so much the better....that's where I learned most of what I know about ACM and plane control in AH.

I guess the value of the DA depends on the goals of each individual playing the game.  If your in it for the the total war experience....maybe not so much.  If your in it for dogfighting then it's a huge benefit in at least two aspects of dogfighting (ACM and plane control).

ill be on later today and tonight for sure...FSO at 11 :rock

FSO is a great time you gotta check it out if you dont partake
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in my opinion the brew is almost as easy mode as the K4.....or the 16..... not quite so much..... because no matter what you have to fight till the end, you aint running from anyone....so that makes it a fighting mans plane...if all you are doing in it is ganging and vulching well that is tardly flying and it dont matter what you fly if that is how you fly.....if you are taking on the gang in the brew that is not to be looked down upon and in the same measure if you are taking on the gang in a 16...but a 16 is far better for gang fighting then the brew....

I will never down someone for what he flies and I think it is silly to do so..... every  plane in the right hands is "easy" mode

it is HOW someone flies that gets my attention or ire.....

......the reason the zeke doesn't get the attention is because if you throw a rock at it it will catch fire....... :D

so, i been doin the DA bit the last few days, trying to get good fights and get my chops in. mostly did find good fights and the called valley fights are freakin top of the line fun. you go in thinking everyone there wants to fight fight fight, but thats not always true. im telling you now the DA has some really very timid players. one guy that flies there often in a 190a5, does MA style bnz, miss, get reversed, run to ack and then turn back to fight when you dont follow through the ack, get reversed again, rerun back to ack, rinse repeat. if you can get him away from his base, when you finally do equal the E, he just goes straight for the ho shot, doesnt even try to out fly ya. big time sissy. in my mind, if you think MA timidness is bad, you really are goin to get agged when you see this scaredy cat do it in the DA. being timid in the DA has to take the cake for most timid in the game right?

Couple of points anyway,

As far as Brewster's performance goes (and many other points), you are delusional.

As far as which planes I fly, I first subscribed to AH in Oct. 2000 (1Wmaker1). Brewster was implemented in the summer of 2009. On this tour I've used at least 11 different fighters and on the last complete tour at least 8. The whole claim that all I ever fly is a Brewster is retarded.

If you really want it, here it is:
was talking about the brewster. Since you are Finnish, its natural that you want to fly your nation's aircraft. Also, youre an oldtimer (at least compared to me, the newbie), i guess, you got tired of some stuff and only want to play your own game. Still, i absolutely cant get what is fun in climbing to 15k, diving down to 1v1s then telling the people why they lost. Because of their SA. Not the ACM, because when a brewster comes with E, he only has to copy his opponents moves, he simply cant lose. Easy mode? On the ACM part, sure, how the friggen hell wouldnt it be?? On the SA part? Not as much, but you just need a couple friendlies around and youre golden.

You can answer that im flying the D9, the exact opposition - true, still, let them decide if i use ACM and/or SA.

Yea, in my book ACM >> SA. The only exception is the FSO.

Have a wonderful day.

If you really want it, here it is:
was talking about the brewster.

ACM by definition is Air Combat Maneuvering. So according to you no ACM is needed (based on your own "SA-only plane" -comment). So with a Brewster all one needs is gentle general aviation flying with turns not exceeding 30 degree bank angle and all the opposition just falls out of the sky? :lol Well, lets just say this reply of yours explained a lot. :)


Still, i absolutely cant get what is fun in climbing to 15k, diving down to 1v1s then telling the people why they lost.

Nonsense. Could you show me a film where you've spotted me at 15k (not that there's anything wrong in flying at 15k if one chooses to do so, I'm just too impatient for it and most of the time there's no need for it.) when there hasn't been a plane that I would have had to climb up to? I've never engaged you at 15k nor have I come down from 15k to engage you. It's rather clear that either you want to intentionally talk-down my flying or you don't have the faintest clue about it. But the funny thing here is that nobody seems to need any evidence to stamp certain people with a certain stigma. All that is needed is much noise on the BBS and one is a super ace that never runs away and always engages no matter what, no matter the actual truth. ;) With Brewster I usually climb to 7k, with a Dora 7-9k as I'm heading out.


You can answer that im flying the D9, the exact opposition - true, still, let them decide if i use ACM and/or SA.

During the last tours my flying between Brewster and Dora has been roughly 50%/50%. BTW  everybody uses both SA and ACM, that's what air combat is.


Amusing reading, I must say.

Like I said before, skill in this game is the ability to defeat your opponent(s) no matter how or what they are flying.

If that is your definition of skill then you play right into the other side of the argument.

You can defeat opponents with one set of skills in this game....BnZ.  But that doesn't not make one a skillful player.  If you think about it Bat, this game truly requires 5 tools to be called a skillful player:

1.  SA
2.  Aerial Gunnery
3.  Angles Fighting
4.  E fighting
5.  The ability to move fluidly between Angles and E ACM

If that is your definition of skill then you play right into the other side of the argument.

You can defeat opponents with one set of skills in this game....BnZ.  But that doesn't not make one a skillful player.  If you think about it Bat, this game truly requires 5 tools to be called a skillful player:

1.  SA
2.  Aerial Gunnery
3.  Angles Fighting
4.  E fighting
5.  The ability to move fluidly between Angles and E ACM

By your definition, a skillful player can employ only 2 of these skills and defeat his opponent no matter what they are flying.  Lots and lots of players are three tool players but they are not skillful....the truly skillful that you and the rest of community recognize have 4 to 5 skills.  Poll it if you like, but its the truth.


I disagree. What you are saying is that one must use a more complex fighting method than is required just to prove 'skill'.

That is similar to using five knots to tie something when only two knots are required for an adequate job.

If your opponent is so simple to defeat that only two of your skills list are required then it is nothing but chauvinism to employ all five skills. Doing this says ' Hey look at all the skills I know about! Am I not skillful?'

Why use more than is required to get the job done? Only use what skills are required and then when on a rare occasion all five skills are required in one fight your 'skill' can be shown to the world for a valid reason.

You have made my point sir.  Only using the necessary skills is one thing...you are then saying on rare occasions you need to use the other required skills...if you don't have them, you can't use them which makes said person, less skillful.  People with less skill as seen, in-game, by other players, should stay out of conversations where skills are discussed lest they be made fun of, become butt-hurt, and then post about how they don't need anymore skill to get the job done.

Actually, I would rather you have used the "its their money, let them play how they want to" argument...because I know for a fact you know better than what you typed sir.  You have no need to vote-pander.

Like I said before, skill in this game is the ability to defeat your opponent(s) no matter how or what they are flying.


Very true

I will add a good player with a more energy efficient ride, using that energy advantage to B&Z your eyeballs out of your skull can be very frustrating but also takes a rather high level of experience and skill to do it aggressively. Those who go at it aggressively to "WIN" are very capable. Those who do it less aggressively and concentrate on "not losing" are generaly fodder.
Although maker and I have had our differences and I too believe the Brew to be very easy "out of the box" he is clearly and has always been one of these capable players.

I believe most issues in this game come down to basic philosophies that cultivate how peeps approach the game.

1- The "play to win" crowd, these folks seek out battle to win it disregarding the potential consiquences. These folks play in several styles, B&Z, T&B, and kind of soft middle ground of the 2. But the common ground for all these folks is the desire to win. This type of individual routinely will lock horns with an opponent and even though many other opponents will try and pick him he will always be trying to kill that 1st dude, he may be avoiding the others but you can be sure he knows exactly where the 1st dude is at all times, and this is because he has not won that engagement yet. This type uses his planes and situational advantage to push the fight towards victory and when he loses advantage and the fight it is most likely cause his desire to win overshadowed his fear of losing, so fleeing never was a solution for him.

2- The "play not to lose" crowd, These folks use their advantages to stay alive, they are always aware of a way to "get out" whether it be by diving away, maintaining enough energy to separate or one that is common for those in this crowd who fly turny birds to turn aggressively and HO thereby turning the fight in to a game of chance rather than a chess match. These players also play in the  same styles as above, B&Z, T&B and the middle ground but intead of "winning" being formost on their thoughts, they reserve "not losing" as equal to winning. Not being shot down for them is some weird superiority even though they did not shoot down the other guy. This type also has no qualms over running away then returning for the simple pick when you are otherwise engaged. The "play to win" crowd usualy does not suffer this malody cause they never thought of running in the 1st place.

There is room for both philosophies in this game, but they surely will never see eye to eye cause one of them will always turn away  :aok

 If you had a clue what you are talking about....it would be in your Depends  :aok


lol change up's last nite, filled with rage, comes to get my 109g2 w/gondies in his zeke he is all saddled up on my 6. I didn't even know he was there, <large fight going on>, till I felt a few pings.

How did it come out Change?  :D

Yes, huge furball, it wasn't a zeke, it was a KI84 and PW blackout certainly constitutes an easy reversal.  But you digress.  Immediately following that, you had your excuses all lined up for not wanting to go somewhere quiet where there are no interruptions, no green guys to help either of us, and no excuses.  As I've said, if you're that good, you have nothing to fear.  I'll be happy to provide my films of our DA session to you to forward to Skuzzy or whomever you choose to authenticate them against your previously stated fears, which, femininely are:

1.  Use of a Muppet gun site
2.  Use of F3
3.  Another player in my plane with me
4.  Incorrect ammo load outs


But still you love the possibility of help.

You called PJK timid in this thread because he shot you down and you didn't like your trip to the tower. You whined, whined and whined on Ch200 to Pjk and then you ran to this BBS to start this very thread. MA isn't your private sand box where everyone needs fly exactly as you say. As far as flying goes, Pjk has hell of a lot more to do with flying than you most probably ever will. You obviously didn't learn much from you recent mute. From now on I'll send material like the one below straight to HTC.

so then all the players "on vox" are afraid to fight 1v1 in a video game??? Even when pjk has alt he runs and makes an excuse no amo or no fuel. i have watched him up and not 5 min later run home and swear he was out of fuel. And wmaker. Well that guy is just a joke. He crys on vox "help help " when he 1v1 in his brew. Then runs away from anyone in a 1v1 weather in his dora or his KI.

Can't help more and more names are coming to mind. i think your a lil but hurt your name is on the list. And other agree about the timid PJK. You are what you are maker.

Hey, when you Finns (and other Euros) come sweep through my area to gang on Squat to turn his K4 into pulp, please ignore my 190.  Promise, I'll figure it out quick and leave the gagle of enemy brewsters alone.


Here, put this sticker on your plane

I'd update it to my squad's art, but then SQUAT would just bi!@# about wearing it on all his planes until I change it back.   :devil  (love you bro!  thanks in advance for dragging us all into this.  :aok :rock )

And squat receives foot in mouth award.  You cannot help idiots.

You should seek help then.

I started this thread a week after running into PJK.

You are lying here. PJK shot you down, long winded crying and sniveling on Ch200 and you ran to the BBS and started typing.


Almost forgot. thanks for the mass report this morning wmaker and company. so upset abotu being told to make sense lol. your squad even runs to mommy like timid lil individuals of the youg female persuasion  

Again, you're full of it as per usual. I hadn't said a thing to you, got Saluted by another player. I answered so you knew I was online and immediately typed "<finger> wmaker" and continued with your usual garbage. The mute was well deserved.

Was I offended by your drivel? Heck no! But as it was a good way to shut you up within the rules of the game, worked like a charm. :)


i think your a lil but hurt your name is on the list.

Trust me, your opinions I could care less about.


I didn't see Squat say anything about anyone but wm and his squad. Since you are not IN his squad, I take it you're here to cover wm's retreat as usual?

I see you are still upset. ;)

I'm "in his squad" by sharing the same squad vox channel and bulletin board.  By the LeR3 (Flight Regiment 3) activity covering all Lentolaivue squads I'm in his squad.

I'm not in his squad by the squad name shown with my nick in the Roster. By the squad name, wmaker has been the only representant online of his squad lately.

If I have understood right, PJK has been counted as a member of wmaker's squad in this discussion. Well, he isn't. PJK is in my squad. So I take you count all of us on wmaker's squad vox as being in his squad.

Squat does that screen shot mean you are text or VOX banned in the game now? Are you trying to make it a clean sweep and get the ban hammer in here too?

Well after you get nailed with the Ban Hammer by Hitech or Skuzzy. At least you still have your privleges back at the Pigs site. Though, you get real cranky every time Skuzzy nails you with his hamnner. We may need to look into passing the hat and get you a crash helmit for your birthday.

Skuzzy or HiTech please use the softer end of the hammer this time. Squat's head is starting to look real lumpy these days...................

For 200, not even close...and its Rookie ball compared to some stuff I've heard on direct VOX lately.....almost reminded me of DrDeath's old dooshery.

i'm used to being text muted. Heaven forbid people talk trash in a video game were the objective is to KILL the people on the opposing teams. I'm sure football players baseball players and soccer players never talk trash to each other. But it's what ever. Muteing me doesn't change the fact that WMaker and his squad are timid. And finding out who is the most timid player is what this thread is all about

I'm sure the ball players do that.  I'm also sure it is poor sportsmanship when they do.

Kill them with kindness.
