waaaaaaaoh dude .................. think the point of the thread is really aimed at the ars*eholes who get wasted and quit or a host thats getting his/her ass handed to them on a plate!!


genuine reasons as stated above or like you're house is burning down, there is a power cut or a connection error fine absolutely ive been thrown out many a game that way. Ive quit due to glitch kills too and so have most IMO

but ive been playing the game long enough to know now when and who will just quit and thats that, it sticks out like a sore thumb!!

im no way an expert in any field in BOP and the guys i usually fly with will say so ........... but you can tell who quits for quitting sakes as Panther points out you will always get them!!!

1st game i played in online was a CTA with a guy called ratman ................... doing i got was unreal i was in a blenhiem 23 or so deaths by the end kept at it to the end


welcome to the site Amy's keeper :D

Lots of PS3 quitters lately. Nothing worse than 2 or 3 seconds from a hard fought CTA or strike win to have the host (who is on the opposing team of course) quit out.

It's worse than I have ever seen here lately. Out of 12 games tonight I was able to finish 3 because the hosts kept quitting. One host quit when he could no longer out number us and the teams finally evened up...go figure.

If they are quitting on me, and I kinda stink, I can only imagine what you other guys are going through.

solution
 

host your own and stop whinning

LOL good advice shadow. Alternativly keep a note of the quitters and boycot their games. There are plenty of great hosts who never quit. Maybe try some realistic. You get less quitters there. Lots of new players in arcade and it's the new ones who tend to quit. It doesn't bother me any more cos I don't give a fig about the leaderboards

Add the quitters to your block list and then when you host a game they'll be unable to join. Simple!
Prime example was the strike last night when a certain French 'pilote' quit with 3 minutes to go when he realised he wasn't going to win. Thankfully as i was host it didn't mean the game finished there and then. There seems to be an obsession by some players to 'enhance' their leaderboard scores which any decent player knows aren't to be trusted anyway. I can prove there inaccuracy by the fact it's lost half my strikes somehow!!
As you've said yourself Wookie, 'you could shoot at Dover radar station for a week and still end up climbing the leaderboards'

I could care less about the leaderboards myself, but I would like to be able to finish unlocking planes/weapons...not a whine, just an observation.

It would be great to host myself, but the dsl is rather unstable. Thanks for your understanding.

If you're on PS3 keep and eye out as most decent players play of an evening after 7pm GMT and you're more than welcome to join us. Never quitting is one of the gentlemans rules we play by no matter what the outcome. We'll also happily help you unlock weapons and aircraft within normal play. That said the bombs for the 190 F8 are more down to luck than skill. Same for the bombs for the 51D whereby you end up 'kamikaze-ing' targets constantly!!!

Join the realistic crowd. Great guys, entartaining and funny games, and we don't give a flyin' f#*.. about the leaderboard. Most of us have unlocked all planes and stuff, and are happy to help out pilots to unlock. Just tell us what you'd like to unlock when I'm hosting both CTA and Strike or whatever, and we'll set up the teams to help you win/unlock. No problem. Just flyin' fun mate!

even if the best way to learn how to win is to loose,in fact if u really play only for the fun ,it is not very important if the other guy quite or don't quite...for me no probs,the other(s)guy(s) can quite if he(they) want,i don't know why he (they)quite,and it is not my problem...
