DA and F3 mode
« on: August 30, 2010, 01:05:53 PM »
Soooooo, whats the deal with F3 mode in the DA?  People are making some amazing shots from under their nose.  Nice, short, perfectly timed bursts on a plane they cant see  :lol

I know that we are against any kind of fair fighting in this game, but comon  :lol  What is the reason it is on in the DA?  Can we please turn it off or have some fields that is off?  Pretty please??????  :D

I agree, can not see how it advances the game.

It is on to appease the ppl that came over from H2H. There was a huge group in there that couldn't fly without externals. That is why you don't see some of the more noted names in the DA in the MA, ever. They still can't fly without external.

Hmmm, nop.  And the fact that you can make those shots does not mean F3 should be available in the DA.  I don;t see how the two are related

I can't fly/fight in F3 mode - it's a sure auger or death.  Not even close to really flying.

Because I'm saying that more than likely you are incorrect in your assumption that the other guy is using F3.

Same. I don't see how they do it and some of them are really good at it.

I know that many of the old H2Hers used it exclusively b/c I used to host rooms and they would come in and request that I turn on F3. They weren't ashamed of doing it, it was just they way they learned the game. I would almost always turn it on for them because they were good fighters and it made the room better to have them.
