Let me just say thank you to DeBrody for starting this thread; it will be a classic ranked up there with "Hairball" by Hangtime (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,12957.0.html)! And thank you to all the other posters that are contributing. It has been a long time since we have seen this much good nature'd testosterone exibited.
That's what I am talking about, and its what we are about. We thrive on competition, and could really care less for the 'Status Quo' that people have somehow managed to make staple of flying in Aces High..
1. It takes 2 to HO, if you are involved in one you are 1/2 responsible for the outcome. It was even a *valid* tactic used by WWII pilots.
2. If you get "picked" its YOUR fault for not having SA and learning to disengage from that fight. If I see 2 people fighting I am damn sure going to go in and try and clear the guy on my team unless specifically asked not to. I guarantee you the greatest Aces of WWII did not get all of their kills from exclusive 1v1 fights, nor did they have anyone call them "off" or did they call one of their wingmen "off" especially if they saw that their wingman had better position to take down the bandit.
3. If you are trying to land on or roll from a Runway that has multiple bandits in the air and you get "vulched", again..its YOUR fault, do you expect them to go in circles while you get alt to defend your base? Sorry, *everyone* enjoys getting multiple kills..even if those kills are easy. Roll From another runway or ditch while you are still alive..
That being said, anyone's opinion on how I or any of my wingmen fly is pretty meaningless to me. As long as we continue to be successful and get better I am happy with that.
