why do you play

[tatertot]

my reasons probally arent any different from most  people in this game i love the game the aspects graphics,people i meet and it takes my mind off the real world.




NOW having said that i cant mention any names ill get thread lock but i have been accused of many things in this game lazer dweeb,tool shedder,even the big word c   ter  but last night takes it all disrespecting buff pilots from ww2 give me a break
 
 i pay 14.95 so if i wanna fly 1k i will ive said it many times the fun of flying that low is getting to target not destroying targets as most know i do not get there that often but we meaning 999 and myself can push a fight back
now if im disrepecting ww2 buff pilots what does it mean to furbali dont think many pilots radioed the enemy and said meet at a1  for furbal action and if you kill me ill reup



got off discussion sorry like i was stating this tread will be hijacked but why do you play ah2 ???????????????????????????????????????????????

[Larry]

To kill buffs in my Me110-o-death!

[Naytch]

Why do you play ah2?????

So i can kill potatoe tots who pay 14.95 to fly buffs at 1k

[/joke]

Really, I play for the sheer satisfaction of flight. The feeling you get after flying outnumbered with only you and your wingman and ending up safe on the runway landing kills together is what I look for.

[Airscrew]

I used to play for the thrill of the fight, but after last night I realized I only play to be bait for Storch

[APDrone]

Gee, Tater, bro.. .sounds like somebody got their feathers ruffled.

So they accuse you of being disrespectfull of real WW2 bomber pilots by flying so low?  

Gotta be a new low on the desperation meter, there.  

Ignore them, dude.  They are obviously of those with an over-inflated self-importance factor.

Personally, I love attacking low buffs.   Which is why I up the 190A8 Cannon Platform.  Unfortunately, more often than not, I don't up it when there actually are low bombers coming in.. but, rather, several non-buff type planes which, in almost every instance result in me returning to the tower in a quite rapid, if not completely messy manner.

I play AH2 because I have had a fascination with WW2 A/C since 5th grade. ( first model was a TBF Avenger that my uncle, who worked at Grumman, gave me for Christmas )

There's something about being part of a 15+ bomber formation with wings of escort fighters crossing the front lines and pummelling bases that gives me a satisfaction of comraderie and immersion.  

I do not play AH2 to become the best. I certainly don't play it to hunt down enemy fighters for no apparent reason ( furballing )... though I may do that on occasion just for vocation-reaffirmation ( oh yeah..that's why I don't do this )

Oh yeah.. and making planes go boom with 5" cannon.. yeah, baby!!

Damned if I know why I play this game.

My therapist and I are still trying to figure it out.  After all these years in flight sims, I still can't fly, I can't shoot, my E management sucks, and my SA blows chuncks.

It must be obsessive-compulsive behavior

[Nightshift82]

great gameplay, good graphics, great people at an unbeatable price.  it's amazing on how many friends you made by this game when you sit back and think about it.  

[Morpheus]

I play to show my respect to WW2 fighter pilots.

[hubsonfire]

I delight in the misery and suffering of others.... mostly my squad. That's why I play.

[Hornet33]

I play because I have no life, and nothing better to do.

No really I have always enjoyed aviation, WWII Warbirds in particular. I have been into flight sims since I got my first computer. This game is just anouther one to add to the long list, but this has been the best game I've played yet. The community is great, the game play is fun for the most part. FSO's completely rock. The squad I belong to is awsome, and I have made some good friends here.

Thats why I really play:aok

[tatertot]

yes drone someone has not sure why i gotta get so much disrespect i dont think i give disrepect out but who knows  
 
  by the way morph just how do you show repect when you trassh so much ??????? not a slam just tryingf to see the other side o the fence(dif between me gammer and you ah greatest spokesman *besides your twin mittins hub or whatever it is this week***

[icemaw]

I play so I can watch the l33t cyber pilots wade into 9 bogeys at 1k in a hurri 1 and then listen to them rant for an hour how they got gang banged and cherry picked by a bunch of lamers

 Let me help you tater .squelch {l33t jerky boy} = aaahhh silence

[icemaw]

Oh and btw tater you can squelch l33t jerky boys on the bb too:aok

[Guppy35]

I play because every so often....well maybe not often....but enough to keep me coming back....I get a flight that sucks me into the cockpit and it feels like I'm really there as much as my imagination will allow.

Anything that makes me connect in some way to those guys who've been my heros since I was a little kid.

It can be something little, like looking out and seeing a flight of the same birds all tucked into formation enroute to the fight.  

I've flown a number of flights with a squad mate where we've gotten into knock down drag em outs and survived despite the odds.  Those make me come back.

Or it can be one of those 1 v 1s that has your hands shaking after it's over because you've worked that hard in it.

Those are the things that make it easier to ignore the Ch. 200 BS and the BBS whines

it's safer and cheaper than going to a bar and driving home.
