To further gain experience and develop my skills I try not to end up with 3 or more sharks on my 6. Last night I felt the teambuilding became a bit to heavy in advance of Aces VS Newbies so I, for the first time ever, dropped the game.
This was not a good feeling cuz I love the game and the flying but just to respawn to get some few seconds flying with several more experienced pilots competing to kill me doesnt give me anything.
Are you Kavorland?

Add me, winny1973. I'll fly with you.

Not everyone's unfair, out of the 4 TB's I played last night I ended up flying off on my own in 2 of them, because of them being complete mismatches (my team being the better one). I get no satisfaction from repeatedly killing someone who is obviously new.. I usually try and go for the top scorer on the opposing team, but if you fixate on one player for too long you're not gonna last long, especially if the other team know what they are doing.

This happens in all modes of the game (despite what others have said)

I was playing a TB, Realistic, 4v4 and my wingman quit about 4 mins into a 20 min match. I stayed and ended up getting killed 25 times and not managing a single kill (was against oceanx and drkdeath tho). I used it to try and work out what works and what doesn't.

I've also had my ass handed to me on lots of occasions in sim..

There are players like Edal on sim who'll at least let you have a go without constantly shooting you down, I had a good game against him a few days ago I was in a spit and he was in a mustang. It finished 2 each but I could see that at times he was struggling to keep the P-51 from spining and I appreciated that it would have been very easy for him to pick a better plane and rack up some leaderboard points.

Well I think I will be out of team battles for a while after the incident with Olife last night. That was pretty mad match and wasnt much fun head on attacking for 20 minutes.
I will play Strike and leave the TB skies clear
