Whine
« on: April 22, 2009, 07:01:17 PM »
Ok I have only been flying for a lil over a year so by no means am I a vet, however I would like to see something implemented for making the guys who haven't been flying for a month have to go to the TA. Earlier today I was having the best flight of my AH career. I had 4 bogeys on my six and ended up getting 4 kills. I was rtb' to rearm since I was out of ammo and fuel. I set down and here comes this noob in a jug strafing the runway. He was spraying and praying and got a lucky hit that killed me when I was almost stopped. I checked his score b/c I have never seen his name I was his 2nd kill in his whole damn career. Please HTC implement something in the TA that you have to pass to be able to enter the MA's.

I would have done the same thing if I sow you on the runway.

No mach it doesn't make me a vet i think that is what I said. I just find it lame that this is how the new guys are being taught and encouraged to fly really is lame. They should be taught how to dogfight not this lame crap.

Dude, you got vulched, so what if it was by a n00b?  If it was Shawk instead would you advise him to go to the TA?  Maybe you should go to the TA and have Snailman cover basic SA with you.  It's not that hard to avoid getting vulched, especially on landing, unless you're deadstick.
To each their pwn.

This should teach you not to 'set down.' I see that you wanted to re-arm, but if there are cons in the area, this is a bad idea.

Land without gear and .ef as soon as you screech to a stop.

No problem mach <S>. I was waiting on the flames about sa. Guess they didn't read the part where I had 4 cons on my six and I ended up getting 4 kills. I think i have some damn good SA. He was the only con came in at 10k and vulched when there were plenty of other target that is what is so damn lame instead of trying to have a fight he wanted to vulch a guy that was landing. As for SHawk I can't speak for him, but I think he would of went for a fight instead of that crap.
