Game is reaching new lows.

This is total BS. How can the other guy even know where you are? unless you decide to follow straight through on a HO and he rolls 90 degrees and does the same? You cant. There is no way to deliberately RAM unless both parties cooperate.

If you want more info, we were in the same ride, and I was coming in from maybe a 3k alt advantage with a lot of smash tho with little maneuverability,If I coulda turned,I would,If I knew I was gonna get rammed I'd have gone for the wingman. But these days you see so much of that tardishness,you just gotta suck it up and move on I guess.

Wrong all knowing almighty know all.

Fly a sortie with me. I ram on purpose whether they want me to or not.
Im sure a few on here will agree with me.

So please know whats your talking about before you post your nonsense.

Im sure the almighty all-skilled bipolar has all the answers on how exactly to RAM.  

[Chalenge]

One instant way of getting more out of the game is to do everything you can to avoid the HO. That said,when i'm in my 190 and if someone insists on it,they get a couple of free passes, I'll fire on the third.

You might as well just kill him on the 2nd because if he does it the first time he will also on the second.

If you expect anything other than getting picked in the MA, ganged by 7 cons, or HO'd on every pass, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.  Play by your own rules, that's what everybody else is doing.

Not all the answers but it is as easy as setting up a shot.

Im relativly new here but have hear the same 'issues' in other sims and other times.

I fight to live, if that means running, I run.  if that means a deliberate HO to escape, I will HO.

Dont ask me to fight YOUR fight when its not in MY best interest

is running fun? i mean....well......you're flying straight n level to run. not much excitement. kinda like watching paint peel.

 ho'ing....well....almost the same thing. stationary target. no apparent motion. no challenge to hit a non moving target. is that really fun? kinda like watching the peeled paint fall off.

 i never really ask my opponent to fight "my" fight. i do, however try to sucker him into it. just like he's trying to sucker me into his fight. but that's the fun of it......

[Chalenge]

Great... since I could swear I have seen where Hitech himself said this was impossible why dont you take Hitech himself away from his busy schedule and prove to him you can collide any time you want? Then post the film for us all to see.

No offense Shuffler but...what exactly is the improvement if someone is fighting your fight? There isn't one person in this game that hasn't lost a dogfight even using all of his "skillz" and some uber ride. If 2 Spixteens want to mix it up that's great but it's rarely that kind of situation...so the person who feels as if he is at some sort of disadvantage due to either his knowledge and ability in executing ACM or the plane he chose to fly...should fight on whatever terms he feels are appropriate, not yours. If you want to force your fight on him, there are ways other than calling implying he has a lack of skill just because he doesn't want to fight on your terms.

i fought shuffler a few weeks ago. i was keeping my alt, and speed, because i suspected it was him....and he kicks my arse in turnfights. 
 he never once complained that i didn't fight his fight. he simply kept trying to turn a disadvantage into an advantage. he did manage to land some rounds on me in the process too.
 the point is, you fight some sort of style, you learn. you run, you don't learn.

do a search. there is a film posted of someone doing this.

It can be done... take for example, a plane AFK on autoclimb.  You have to assume on your end seeing him he is slightly in front of where you see him.  If you want to ram him, you'd fly above him and zoom right by him as close as you could without ramming on your end.  That being sad, I don't think intentional ramming has any practical purpose.  Why not just shoot him?  The only purpose I can come up with is Ar234 ramming.

Well one thing I see and it never seems to change is the ability to excel at the game and then announce to everyone else how good I am and how bad the opposition is.  I'm sure this breeds good will among the other players in the game.  Would it not serve the community better as a whole to lend assistance and pass on ones skills to others by offering your help.  Let them know what they did right first.  It might make a person more open to, not criticism, but a critique of areas they can improve on.  Oh and if those that think they are as good as they think they are, I'm sure they would be willing to invite some of these unworthy minions to a training session in the TA so they can improve.  It might surprise you that by passing on your skills to others the game might be improved over time, and you fights might become more enjoyable.

BnZs thank you again last night for clearing my six.

I'm sure I'm not alone in this but I'm more than happy to offer pointers to someone I recently beat.  All they have to do is politely ask.  Offering up pointers without being asked is likely to have the opposite effect I think.  I'm not a hotshot pilot, there are several people in this very thread who could probably beat me 9 times out 10 but I have been doing it awhile and could at least pass on some basics.  People just have to ask, like I said earlier I think we all benefit if we can raise the average level of skill in the game.

Sounds like random space anomalies and not an acquired ability. 

The only way to prove this is with Hitech.
