High speed stalls!

Counting augers as kills!

You're right! You DID kill AckAck! Once! In a HO merge in a P38L, with him in a D.VIII!

Impressive, Sir! You have made my week!

That's great entertainment.

AKAK: "Sure I'll dump my ammo, but it's gonna be into your plane"

now I ask if kingcobra is just a shade looking to stir people up?

No self respecting troll would or could let themselves look that bad.  That was downright painful to watch.  I couldn't make it past the rocket HO pass in the 38.  Your patience was admirable AKAK.  Didn't know you had it in ya

to the guy who sait I was using a mouse, I use a saitek X52

[trotter]

I couldn't make it past the second fight. When I saw that Typhie vs 38 merge.......geez. What's with the chopping throttle right before the merge? The HO'ing? The inexplicable stalls?

Well kudos for posting it at least. I don't know the drama behind all this but if you're willing to learn this game the right way, you're only going to get better from here, because you've obviously learned a lot of bad habits so far.

[kingcobradude]

what am I supposed to do on first merge?

[gpwurzel]

If I can make a suggestion Cobradude, go into the training arena, hook up with a trainer and take it from there. Initial merge, if you pull for a ho, you are giving up a lot to your opponent - you lose e if they offset it, which hands them directly an e advantage. From there, you'll find it difficult to regain the initiative.

*edit - there is no stigma to working with a trainer - they will help you get more from the game, quicker than you can figure things out for yourself. They'll help with your stick scaling (reduces the amount of bounce your seeing etc). They can take you through the language/skills of acm/bfm etc. Whilst you can learn at your own pace, using a trainers help for an hour or two, is invaluable and helps a lot*

Watch my films and see how I merged with you.  I also told you to go to netaces.org and read the write up on how to merge.  It's up to you now.  If you want to come away with something from this, watch my films of the duels and go to netaces.org and seek the help of a trainer.

I can't believe that went on for over an hour...............

 

[RTHolmes]

the spit XIV HO/auger merge was my fav

this is good advice:

The most important thing I think you need to learn, for this game and for life, is to say "I'm wrong."

You are so convinced that it isn't your fault that you can muster up an excuse for everything instead of admitting that those other people around you may know more about this than you.  Take a big ole' bite of humble pie and take the opportunity to learn from guys like AckAck, Krusty, VonMessa.

Make a move that isn't a HO shot

I agree, I thought he handled himself quite well up until Cobra HO'd his D7 (while flying a P-38). I can't say I blame him for roughing him up a bit then

Poke a bear one too many times with a stick and the bear is going to have some lunch.
