Come on pope 61 kills is pretty damn impressive. Not trying to be a ass but I think that is worth a little bragging lol

olife · #4 01-09-2012, 10:11 AM

yes it is very impressive but it depends of the game level of the oppoments and the time of the game...personnaly when i meet a new guys ,i try to don't do a "free carnage" because i remenber when i started to play a online planes game(blazing angels)i was very happy the aces let me did some moves and learn me how to fly...and the guys who are rookies today will be a aces tomorow ...the guys i beat yesterday beat me today... but yes 61 kills is an impressive score...

Let me guess, your team mate was your online and real life buddy who I met online for the fist time yesterday just prior to our historical missions. If so there is no surprise, that gentleman can do some serious damage. So much in fact, that opponents from the other team decided to quit the game.

You are very skillful virtual flyer, no doubt about that. But do you really need to remind the general public of this forum about that? We, that occasionally meet you in online games are fully aware of your skills, but as Olife put it very nicely, it all relative. Let me put it bluntly for you, sooner or later you will meet someone who will put your skills to shame. Do not worry, it won't be me, as I consider myself just slightly better that mediocre BoP player, especially in realistic difficulty mode. I hope you do not take this post of mine as something unfriendly or offensive. That is certainly not my intention. There is a very nice manual written by the guy who played this sort of online dogfights for more that a decade. In there he talks about the different mentality of online players (I think he mentions four major ones). Please do not let yourself became one of those “insuferable egomaniacs” that this author mentioned in that manual. Remember that your ego is you worst enemy in your life. You are a fairly young person (judging by the photos you posted from air museum) so you have plenty of time to work on yourself. Perhaps sharing a few tips with those “inept” dogfigthers is a good start. Here is the challenge for you: if I join your squadron, that is if you let me, will you help me improve my gunnery skills and perhaps my flying in realistic mode?

Again, please do not be offended by my post. Take care and see you at the Ruff's historical missions.

Yes Mr. Robot, what did you or Brit's in general have for a breakfast ? We, here at the US West, like good old fashioned omelette (hm, sounds French?) and not that cereal c..p

I did not mean to be offensive I just never seen anyone get that many kills before so I had to brag a little. No my team mate was not pappy if it was I wouldnt have been bragging we do that to guys all the time once again not trying to be a ass just saying. My team mate in this match was foxy and he got 2 kills the whole match. And yes everyone can join my squad and I will help anyone who asks with settings or anything else weather in my squad or not. I do brag at times and I have gotten into some heated arguments but I will always play fair I will always bail I will play with anyone and if any of you have heard me on mic I don't talk trash to people in the game we are all here to have fun

mavrickandgoose · #7 01-09-2012, 07:31 PM

Oh and I'm 26 so I guess I'm kinda young lol

mavrickandgoose · #8 01-09-2012, 07:37 PM

I have put in a lot of time and effort to become as good as I am sorry if every once in a while I brag a little

OK then, I might take you up on that offer

And no, I did not think you meant to offend anybody, it's just that people generally do not like that attitude. Being boastful is indeed appropriate in some professions, even desired and appreciated in some (perhaps the military would be a good example), but generally not so. It is also true that you do not engage in badmouthing so please do not say that we interpreted your post as if you were degrading others or as you put it: “you all suck”. I certainly did not interpret your post as such.

That score of yours, although impressive, might not be the best, who knows. Speaking about impressive, I do not know if you ever met that guy that flew Fw-190D in sim mode? My first CTA game with him on opposing team gave me completely wrong impression of him. To cut a long story short, few days or weeks latter he was very kind to give me some pointers how to fly “impossible to fly” Fw-190D beast. And what he does with that aircraft still impresses me to this day. I've seen him in dogfights and team battles doing incredible flying/shooting and never to be concerned about the score. What I'm trying to say is that quite often we get the wrong impression about people even in real life let alone in this virtual world of ours.

Apologies to Pope for my remark about the cereals. Not all of them are bad, but here in the States the processed, boxed ones are awful.

Pope's remark was spot on, indeed it is very easy to rack up points that way (preying on defenseless landing aircraft). W and tr do that to me all the time when they are in opposing team and I'm not angry at them. Well I'm a little bit, but I'll keep them on my friends list, for now

Fortunately there is a “medicine” for preying on (not so) defenseless landing aircraft. It is called IL-10. Even more effective when done in combination with rain or stormy weather. It is always funny to watch player(s) leave CTA game lobby when I switch from lets say Yak-3 to IL-10. All of a sudden Spit's and Bf's do not look that threatening

And yes we are all here to have fun! Are we?

And congrats on your high score!

Take care,

Wise words Aquila. Branflakes with milk and some raisins, Glass of Orange juice.

Mavrick, can I ask exactly how long was the game you were playing? I'm wondering if you were dominating the CTA game that much why you hadn't captured the airfield and won before you could get anywhere close to that many kills. I'm afraid the impression I get is constant vulching (preying on defensless landing aircraft) ,and like the sniper in the Battlefield games, racking up many kills but not actually working towards the team game objective. Now I'd be impressed If you told me this was 61 kills and 7 deaths in a 30 minute TDM but I would still agree with Olife and Aquila.
