edal86's $10 Reward Challenge (PS3)

[edal86]

As I waited in vain for a match an idea came to me.

I will give a 20 DOLLAR PLAYSTATION NETWORK CARD to anyone that can BEAT ME in 2 out of 3 (1vs1) dogfight matches.
(note: this is a reward challenge not a gambling challenge, all you need to do to participate is to play me)

RULES:
* Anyone can participate
* You must beat me in 2/3 matches ( if we have a draw, then you dont win, example: you win first round, I win second round, we draw third round)
* You can only choose FIGHTER PLANES or JETS (NO BOMBERS)
* armament cannot include rockets or bombs
* you cant shoot at ground targets (will explain later)
* You are allowed only one opportunity per week until there is a winner
* You must respond within 12 hours after I have contacted you for match or I will skip you until you reply

SETTINGS:
* Maps: Britain, Sicily, Bulge (snow)
* Weather: hazy, good, clear (all will be during day)
* SIMULATION ONLY
* 10 minute matches
* Strike: yes, we will play STRIKE matches using only FIGHTER PLANES, this way if you or I crash, a point will be deducted from the tickets. Also, this allows the player that crashes or dies to appear at their own base.
* Limited fuel and ammo ( so you better not shoot like crazy because only way to reload is to crash and this means that a point will be deducted from your tickets.

WHAT TO DO?
* Simply post here that you would like to participate
* I will contact you to assign a match date and time
* no priority challengers (this is first come, first serve)
* If you win I will e-mail you the $20 PLAYSTATION NETWORK CARD code or deposit $15 to your PAYPAL ACCOUNT, your choice.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
* Results will be posted here
* anyone can join, my goal is to have fun
* I will mainly use FW 190, MC 202, Hurricane, in that order according to your skills
* I will only use Spitfire if you are extremely skillful, or if you are a good player but fly the La7
* If you use I-153 or I16 type 24, I will fly your same plane
* If you fly Fw 190, p47, or P51, I will fly your same plane also so I dont have advantage
* If you fly jets, I will fly FW 190 or ME 163

GOOD LUCK :)

[Rhah]

I will take your challenge!:cool:
1st on the Team battle board, vs 2nd on the Team battle board.... could be interesting (although I suspect I'm going to get hammered, to be honest)

Can't really give a specific time, but if you see me online drop me a message and I'll see what I can do.

[kozzm0]

that's a good idea to use strike mode. I will keep doing matches against you till I can beat you so I might as well take the challenge.

I drew first blood that last round vs your sneaky little c202.

I like limited ammo cause it makes it less dangerous to climb. Are there any rules about running away to protect a lead? Since you usually use slow planes.

Great, I have two challengers already, I will figure out the date and time tomorrow because I need to sleep now.

ALL TACTICS ARE ACCEPTABLE, HOWEVER, THERE MUST BE ENGAGEMENT, what you were doing could be considered "boom and zoom", however you cant hide on the opposite side of the map for the entire 10 minutes, get what I mean? Otherwise I would do same thing on the next round, maybe damage your plane so you crash or get a kill and then run to my side of the map and evade you for the remaining time. Also you must consider that there are 3 rounds, so if I see you do this I might get a faster plane.

ok your on i will prob loose though i could beat you in any realistic cta match you could ever dream off oh well its your money so you can make the rules

[irrelevant]

is there any chance i can park my plane on a nearby airfield and watch the battle while enjoying a cup of tea?

:neutral:

[Mage_016]

Very good idea and rules but i'm not interested of your money. Only with good and fair games. I think I will have time to fly at this evening (from about 2hrs from now) not sure yet tho. We'll have to organise some team matches too, at strike mode with these rules. All crashes counts thats good. Bravo edal!

[xX-SiLeNcE-Xx]

You're on!

Sometime tomorrow though because I just picked up Dragon Age: Origins :D

[edal86]

I will be online in about 2 hours or less from now.
So far I have:

* rhah
* kozzmo
*haitch40
* Irrelevant24
* Mage_016 (vieras)
* xxsilencexx
* miatar
* Subarugaz
* hauptmannmolders
* Infinitestates
* Lilya Litvak


***(since it is first come, first serve, you guys have to wait for your turn, example: I cant play haitch40 (official match) until I play Rhah and Kozzmo. This does not mean that we cant have some friendly matches (practice) if you see me online.

*** However, If I contact you for a match and you dont respond in less than 12 hours, then I will skip you until you contact me, fair?

Thanks for the good comments :)

[irrelevant]

my comment was made in jest, but i'll join the fray. as i mentioned to you online, playing you makes me better. so why not? :P

[miatar]

well Ill join the queue do you take paypall as I need to top it up now but I'll be so far behind in the list that you'll all probably get bored of getting rich by the time I get to be embarrased

[Spitfire23]

Ok edal my friend, I accept your challenge

Stick me on the list, should be quite the match ;)

[kozzm0]

I work afternoons/evenings in gmt-8 so I won't be able to go online till 10pm us pst/6am gmt today (gotta go to work in 30 min). Most times after then are good. I tend to sleep in the mornings

[edal86]

well Ill join the queue do you take paypall as I need to top it up now but I'll be so far behind in the list that you'll all probably get bored of getting rich by the time I get to be embarrased

Please understand, I am not asking for money, this is not a gambling challenge. So I wont get rich from this.

Perhaps you meant to ask if I could deposit $20 to your PAYPAL ACCOUNT, answer to this is YES, but not exactly, either the winner receives $20 PLAYSTATION NETWORK CARD, or $15 PAYPAL DEPOSIT.

Please ask if you have any doubts




subarugaz,

My friend, I was afraid you'd show up because last time we went BF 109 E vs BF 109 E, you kicked my ass 2 out 3 times, nevertheless, you are very welcome and I have now added you to the list of challengers :)

[HauptmannMolders]

Yeah I'm in we've had some fun the last few days and you've shown me a few things for sure. Despite all the crashes because you destroyed my plane you should have beat me about 12-2 I'd guess, although you did switch to your Spit so does this mean I'm "extremely skillfull"? Lol!

For those of you that haven't played this guy I'm not sure you know what you're in for...

[Rhah]

I'll be available for target practice duties... ermm, no sorry.... I'll be around for the 1st Match tonight, although I've just realised that you're in the US, so by the time you're online I'll be quite drunk. Oh well.... It might turn out to be an advantage for me!

Also, as I'm in the UK, if by some miracle I do win, what do I get? Are US PSN cards valid for use in the UK?

[InfiniteStates]

This sounds great :) Sign me up...

US PSN cards cant be used on UK accounts, however this can be fixed if you create an American account, I Could even do this for you and have the account ready so that all you need to do is download the content you like from PS STORE. Anything you download into your PS3 will be shared among up to 5 PSN accounts, understand? I, myself, have a UK and Japanese account so that I can download demos early.

The other option is to receive $15 PAYPAL deposit.


Subarugaz,

nice, I miss playing my IL2 1946, but my computer broke so I cant play it anymore, If I fix it sometime soon I will let you now :)

You should make these matches into videos? If you can. Then it might add some excitement to seeing how some of them might fare against you?

I did think about it, however, I dont have a good camera? Maybe, if you guys have a good camera you can make a video out of these matches, thats a good idea.

BTW, care to join? you will be the first and only women. I promise I will only use MC 202 against your YAK-1b :)

[Lilya Litvak]

You can put me down. But if you race through these guys, don't expect me to be on. Me and some friends are going PARTYING!!! tonight. It's going to be SOOOO much fun. But I won't bore you with details.

And what sensitivity do you have the MC202 at? I can't get that thing to fly worth a damn, at any sensitivity that's good enough.

I feel somewhat humiliated, although as i said earlier, I know that I could give you a better match if i was sober.
You're good dude, but you aint that good :-P


Anyway, well played. And good luck to the next victim.... I mean, contestant.
I'll Look forward to the rematch, assuming there is one.

Ok, you are on, dont worry have fun in yuor party today, I am playing an average of 1 or 2 people a day so I may get to you in about 3 to 4 days, that is if someone has not yet kicked my ass.

All difficult to fly planes I have 50% sensitivity, but I use rudder a lot of the time to counter any unwanted stalls, and turn.

[irrelevant]

[edal86]

*** I managed to record some Il2 videos on my old digital camera and an old tripod, they dont look that bad at all, I will record the next match and try to load it up to youtube and see if it works and if the quality is not that bad, I will probably record the matches, and show an edited 4-5 minute video of the highlights of all rounds combined***

- furthermore, I was able to record the 3 rounds, I will edit the video and post it here -

Thanks Kozzmo, good games, see you in some hours for rematch my friend this time I wont under estimate you because you are growing skills :)

Hopefully, this loss of mine will encourage you guys to beat me, so participate please I am not invincible and there are $20 dollars waiting for a home

[McQ59]

is there any chance i can park my plane on a nearby airfield and watch the battle while enjoying a cup of tea?

:neutral:


I'll join u dude :)


Just love u guys!

And the game...

[kozzm0]

oh, great. How about if I edit the video instead

Naturally I expected I was the first volunteer to be violated on video.

Since you gave up too much handicap, I figure I'll face a dire vengeance tomorrow

I hope people see thursday's video first :D

Beating that damn c202 was what mattered to me, but since I talked you into using it, it only rated a cigar, not the challenge prize.

[haitch40]

oh edal can i have a few practise runs i dont know which game i wana play strike or cta

also can i make the match settings like location etc or are you. I know there are things like limited f/a and sim mode that are a must

The jump from realistic to sim is a helluva lot smaller than the jump from arcade to realistic IMO.

Switch to aviator control scheme (if you use a controller), stick to tree tops when trying to find a target and use the map a lot, would be by $0.03 ;)

Oh yeah - and combat flaps FTW

Sorry haitch but you will have to stick to STRIKE matches I already explained why on RULES and SETTINGS. Reason why I dont do it on CTA is because I use Aviator layout and it takes for ever to come to a stop since I dont have brakes (i use full rudder left and right and I fire my guns to help me stop).

However, regarding the maps, I can make an arrangement If you wish to play on a desired or favorite 1. reason I have those 3 assigned ones is to vary gameplay and difficulty. There is no trick here, you can practice on those 3 maps, I will never change the order to allow an equal opportunity to all.

If you win, you will get your price I already explained how this can work on a previous post. Same goes for people in germany, australia, or where ever you may live. All you need to do is create an American account, If you dont know how to make an American account on PSN I will even do this for you. I will explain with more detail to whoever wins. Other option is to receive a Paypal deposit, (this is safe, it would be like if you sold me a $20 dollar "X" on ebay, understand?

(if you see me online we can have some practice, ofcourse (this goes to everyone))
DONT WORRY, THE VIDEO REVEALS ALL MY SECRETS ON HOW I FLY :S

I hope it helps some of you guys that are migrating from realistic to SIM, it really is a more enjoyable experience.

I will be on in about 5 hours from now. I have school in a bit, and have to edit my defeat video lol.

For those of you guys that dont know, I got the XBOX 360 for a week starting today, so I will be flying against those xbox guys, hopefully, I can represent all PS3 players in a positive way. I will try to make some videos of those matches as well so you guys can see how good they are compared to you (sounds rude, but deep inside you know you want to see how good those xbox guys really are :) dont you?)

Wheres the video?

[edal86]

video is uploading to youtube as I type. Its almost 9 minutes, not the best quality, but i guess it will do the trick. Also, since it was 30 minutes of gameplay put into a 9 minute video, I used a fast forward feature. Hopefully you guys will enjoy it, I dont know if I will keep making these videos, they take some time, because my computer sucks, and I use windows movie maker to edit them.

I can see some of my mistakes in the second round. I stayed in-plane way too long when you were setting up shots, instead of breaking out of plane.

The Navy publication "fighter combat tactics and maneuvering" says what to do in that situation. Which I didn't do.

Were you really rolling that fast, or was it in fast-forward?

[kozzm0]

good match, I knew you would be out for blood

one technical thing though, you did go for a swim right before 2nd round ended... I remember cause I was thinking "whoa he finally died"

if there's a video of this rematch, anyone who watches it, don't do what I did, including stalling especially.

I copied the results from the BoP aftermatch report, wasnt that one a later match? I remember crashing into the water in sicily at the end, maybe it did it count or was "yak-1 vs yak-3" match

[kozzm0]

yak-1 vs yak3 was the 2nd round, I had hit you about three times and you were still out-turning me, finally we got into a big loop fight and you hit the drink, with about maybe 5 to 10 seconds left. I had just passed near the water too. I think it was on the scoreboard, but I'm not sure. Maybe video caught it.

If they didn't count it, it's probably cause it was an Italian plane off Sicily so naturally he would have just had to swim to shore :D

since the point of using strike is to make deaths count to make limited ammo work, the overall score shouldn't be 2-0/1-0, it should be either 4-0/4-0 or 4-0/4-1, depending on whether that splash was counted. The kill stat alone actually makes it look closer than it was.

also add my name to the end of the challenge list.

[Araqiel]

Nice vid; some nifty gunnery, especially in the first match, but you seem to attack from below way too often. Sure, you were close enough to the deck that he didn't have too much altitude to run with, but radial G affects your rounds as well as your aircraft, and pulling up in a guns pass isn't desirable.

Are you guys playing on strike with limited F/A?

[irrelevant]

yeah, i think that is the plan. kozz and i played a few matches last night using this approach.

[haitch40]

I will be on in about 5 hours from now. I have school in a bit, and have to edit my defeat video lol.

For those of you guys that dont know, I got the XBOX 360 for a week starting today, so I will be flying against those xbox guys, hopefully, I can represent all PS3 players in a positive way. I will try to make some videos of those matches as well so you guys can see how good they are compared to you (sounds rude, but deep inside you know you want to see how good those xbox guys really are :) dont you?)

send me a psn message when u r ready and i will reply im on 10 am to 6pm gmt weekends and school holidays and normal days 4pm to 6pm gmt apart from alot of tuesdays and thursdays i have alot to do those nights

[edal86]

haitch40,

ok, no problem. I will hold your spot for 12 hours and If I by then I have not played against you I will go to the next opponent in the list (untill I find you online so we can have the match)

(everything is explained on the first post of this thread, Settings, Rules, What to do)



TRK29,

You dont want to participate. Yes, matches are on Strike, I explained this on 1st post of this thread (Settings and Rules)


Kozzmo,

I see what you mean about the score, I will add Score next to the Round but I will still indicate kills and deaths, sometimes we crash for a stupid reason lol, like my 2nd death on the first round of the video. Or maybe during match after a crash we can come to agreement if it was a crash because of significant amount of damage to plane, or for any other factor, player's mistake (like not checking altitude lol). All still count ,though, in the final score.
I did not take video of rematch, sorry. It will be time consuming to make video of all matches, I also have school and work, and I am trying to play a little BoP on Xbox. I guess I will do a video a week, I will choose against whom I guess. Maybe if you guys would really, really, like a video of your match then you can ask me and I see what I can do.

(BTW, I can confirm now that that last kill you were talking about happen on the third match (first frienly) MC 202 vs Yak-1b in sicily. I just went through my sent and received messages.)

Heck yeah I want to participate throw me in that list.

[Spitfire23]

I would want a video of a match with me, on the basis that i can learn from mistakes and the fact that i have alaways wanted to see myself online from another persons perspective (dont ask why lol)

Oh and BTW some sweet kills from both participants in that video, Good job :grin:

How can I say no to you my friend. I am afraid I will be recorded my next defeat though LOL. I will contact you later about this.

*** Just out of curiosity, do you guys using allied planes fly in cockpit view?? I mostly fly on Virtual View but as you can see from the video I can still get kills on cockpit view. It would be great if we could lock the views but I recommend you use the virtual view against me (if you find it more useful) because I will be using it, just so you are not on disadvantage :)***

[trk29]

I mostly fly real cockpit. Virtual is to dissorienting but it does have it's advantage.

Ok buddy.

Oh and dont speak so low of yourself, you are a damn fine pilot lol (I Know your kidding though ;))

[edal86]

This is what I will do.

* For every 3 challengers I play I will make 1 video
- this way I dont spend to much time too often because of editing

* In case I am defeated before I get to the third challenger of a video, I will make video of the 1 or 2 challengers that I got to (the last being the winner of this Reward Challenge), clear?

* I will talk to each of you after the Challenge Matches to ask you which of the 3 (or 2, if you dont win any of the first two rounds) rounds you would like to see on video.

"THIS WAY YOU CAN ALL SEE YOURSELVES THROUGH MY COCKPIT" and I dont have to edit and upload videos like crazy. (recording them is no problem)
