Your playstyle/philosophy on flying Aces High

[waystin2]

Actually i was in an M.. But it was a fun fight.. Didnt think it could hang w/ your spit 9 eh? 

I stand corrected on the model.  I did not think it could hang with the 9.  I came in complacent smacking my lips thinking Jugs taste good!  By the time I realized that I was in deeper than I thought, I received an all expenses paid trip to the tower.  It was one of the fights that make you think, how will I approach this fight next time?  The good kind of fight...

Well 90% of the time, p47s are good tasting meat (bacon?) on a stick, until you run up against someone who knows how to throw the big girl around.. I found out the hard way the other day 47M vs. 47M against RedDog.. Though.. The next fight, he found out I can throw her around pretty good too.. Muahaha!

I remember the first time I played AH2, the P-47 just caught my eye. IDK why, but she just looked like the plane for me. First time I flew P-47 in combat I got into a fight with a P-38 and I finally got the drop on him and then promptly ran out of gas due to taking only 25%.

To blast uber rides out of the sky with a single shot.

Well, if I used to boom and zoom since I was the mustang junkie (no pun intended junkyII) but thinking about maybe learning the spit or something. GUess it depends if my old squad is still around, still trying to find out.

I dont have a specific playstyle. I play one style for a while then change to something else. Or do whatever suits me at any given time.
I've done everything from Toolshedding to landgrabbing to furballing.
I enjoy them all


One of the things I enjoy most about the game is
I can be a homicidal maniac without actually being a homicidal maniac

[Nemisis]

Same here. See avatar for part of play style. Past that, I'll turn fight if it suits me, E fight all  the time, BnZ if thats whats called for.

I like playing defense. While it doesn't do much for your score, "who cares"?, the action is almost immediate and you have to really watch your ACM because your almost never looking down at anybody, airplane at least. Even when your GV killing you have to be aware of fighters, often dodging them or engaging them. IL2s, Yaks, LAs, are my favorite planes on the defense and I'm also pretty decent with AA guns.

Not great at anything but hopefully competent at everything. That was always my goal.

Ack-Ack has it all figured out...

Not that I care: but, what was Maria Shriver thinking?

[DREDIOCK]

Example. My play style over the last few nights has been that of NOOOOB. Breaking long held and hard learned lessons of combat discipline and ACM. Cant fly fight, or gun for chit
LMAO

When I come out of this slump. Some of you are gonna pay. LMAO

Damn, the week he starts screwing up has to be when I can't play.

Well if your back it seems you can still get in on the action.

While better. Im flying nowhere near or even being near my potential.
And not to worry. Even if I out maneuver you. Or catch you AFK. At worst, I'll more often then not just scratch your paint job.
My
SA's off, ACM's are better but still WAY off. Timing is off.  Gunnery is next to non existent

So you might as well join in on the action. Everyone else is LOL

My philosophy:

Push the limits of my plane and flying ability.

Its why I will straight up turn fight anything the sky just about with P-38, P-47, P-51 and sometimes other oddball planes. Its extremely fun blasting a much better fighter (for TnB anyway) out of the sky with some of the "sleds".

With so many different playstyles and reasons for playing, it'd be nice to have a friendly thread of what you like to get out of your time in AH2.

Have not been able to find it. Starting to think it doesn't exist any more.

  all anywho.
