we have?

Good to know.

I'm not directly in this game yet, you'll have to excuse me.

So far as I understand, one of our members is 4th on Arcade Team Battle, and has been tossing the number 1 slot on several occasions (a booster with the gamertag "gooniepl").

Our guys, from what I've been informed of, are more akin to Realistic mode. Several of our members are in the top 10 on leaderboards.

Given that leaderboards are completely based on kills....I dont think this really gives a good idea of where skill is based on. I am a stern believer in K/D spread as an indication of skill. We've learned in Ace Combat that points are the way to go, and though our members legitimately got their rankings, most of the top guys "boost" by using the worst ranking airframe in the game, and work to shoot down the top point based airframe with Guns.

This system is on IL:2 BoP is a lot nicer, but still gives no true indication of skill. Obviously, it will be nice to play against people who have an appreciation for this kind of thing.

Hope we get a challenge! We've been looking for one for about 8 years now. New game, new possibilities. Look forward too it, trk29 .

Again, anyone wanting to get some games in, please contact Draux, he is the S&S CO for our "Preservation Wing."

Thanks guys!
