Must be nice...
« on: March 17, 2024, 02:51:14 PM »
Watching this film it's hard to believe. I'm going to write the Navy a letter about how much ammo they wasted and bill everyone of them...  :devil

Forgive my language. I put 80 rounds in this TU2 right before I started filming and still did no damage to him, he's dive bombing, hops in his guns and insta hits me giving me 2 out guns and an oil leak (I start filming), then flies right through ack with no damage, hits the turning ship and still flies away unscathed! gotta love it.

So as I'm trying to finish him off, Skyyr comes in of course. I automatically know its him. Who else is going to be in this location in a LA, and then pull up instantly when I turn in. I was surprised to see an La5 honestly. Though at 500 mph vs my no wep, 3 50s and oil leak what can I really do but dip and dodge in ack. Must be nice to be able to dodge 100s of thousands of bullets in a La5 LOL wish I had the speed and E to make it a better fight.

Had similar issue last night, pretty sure it was same model. I pumped a lot of lead into it with an A5 until I was down to BBs. It wasn’t being all that evasive, so it was even easy for me to hit. It flew away as I was dead after a few strikes from his buddy Skyyr. I’ll leave it with very questionable.

What kill me was actually hitting water. Same area. I can add to it but I’ll leave there.

Sounds like another bad experience. I'm surprised so few people understand how the game's flak hit formula works.

Oh well good fight <S>

Formula? I don't recall Hitech ever sharing that with the community. Can you expand?  There were multiple instances there where some AAA should have hit you, and very surprised that puff ack shot didn't get a peice of you either.

I'm also curious. Did you ask the knights where I was when you rolled or did you see my icon the entire time chasing the second set of Tu2s? I was about 8k away from the bombers after I killed the first Tu2s, so I'm curious if I was showing on the map the entire time?

I don't recall him sharing it either. I'm just referring to testing I've done on the parameters where ack is more likely to hit you vs not. It's pretty consistent once you've figured it out.

Did you ask the knights where I was when you rolled or did you see my icon the entire time chasing the second set of Tu2s? I was about 8k away from the bombers after I killed the first Tu2s, so I'm curious if I was showing on the map the entire time?

Neither. The scores page showed you were in a -4 when you killed fdski. The dar bar showed there was only 1 con in the 4 grids. I asked wootang what plane was trailing him. He said it was a -4, so it was pretty obvious where you were.

Yeah its certainly clown world when a la5 can run through CV ack multiple times and be 200 mph as the only enemy fighter in the area and not get hit once... I've never seen that before.

Also clown world when you both have 100 hours playing this tour and it's only the 18th. Good grief.


Are you really putting the title of the film in your sig? Yikes man.

Perks of having a big boy job. Then again I was gone from December to March, so there's that. One day you'll get there.

Says the guy who made an entire post and diagram because his perked plane died to a 30 ENY LA5.

Better luck next time sir.

No, the post was exposing how you took 0 damage as the only enemy plane flying through a full CV boat ack multiple times.

But don't get it twisted. I was damaged, had oil leak, and no E. Not expecting any enemy aircraft to be there in that run with the TUs. Who should also be questioned. And you came in with 500 MPH lol, but you certainly didn't deserve the kill so I'm glad you only got the assist.

The most I've ever played was in high school like 14 years ago on summer break. I believe it was 80 hours or so. Even if I had all the time in the world. I wouldn't spend it in a video game every second of the day. It seems like you guys have a very unhealthy addiction to spend this much time playing any game, much less AH lol.

I'd say you had a point, except I haven't touched a joystick in 3 months until 2.5 weeks ago because I was in Ukraine and Turkey. Don't worry, I'll be gone again starting in May.
