Only a ahole would camp on a bunch of newbs in a capture the carrier game.

Great set of screen shots A-5!

Yes. It's official Werner-Voss has earned the latest in headware:



(asshat: A person whose behavior displays such ignorance/obnoxinousness that you would like to make them wear their own ass as a hat.)

I will.second that he needs.an ass hat but can u find the pic of the guys head up an elephants ass I think its more appropriate I've shot at this Guy time and time again just to see him.flying right throught every bullet I fire even in a straight head on I watch my rounds land and it doesn't even log a hit and this should sound familiar you get shot down the second he flys past you in a head on hmmm I remember someone elese doing that too

You're totally right. He should have parked his plane and told everyone they were special and given them all a trophy.

If you think camping on some players that aren't that skilled is honorable. Especially 46 kills and 2 deaths. Well calling names isn't nice so I'll just keep my mouth shut.

Well now I understand why he has such a huge k/d ratio..

A5, you get a trophy for being honorable! Congratulations!

In the mean time, that seems like a fine opportunity for said new players to gain skill.

Oh Jacklpe,

Do you want a new hat too? They aren't really recommended for anyone with antlers.

Sure, I'll order a box of 500. Thanks!

There are a lot of solutions to getting pummeled by a camper. Using the honor card ain't one of 'em.

The simplest are you brakes or the quit button. You could also lure him away from your base, creating some distance for your team. What about a timed takeoff, using your throttle and brakes? Campers always leave openings for you to jump in and get them.

Ok... I'll concede that it's tasteless, but I think all of these "rules" ruin the game. I'm a much bigger fan of the "make a plan, work together, and win" type of play that made it so fun for me. This mindless flying in straight lines just so the guy with the best upload speed always wins stuff doesn't really do much for me. Sorry.

It took me about a week to figure that out. (Although brakes weren't an option at the time). I'm afraid too many are so busy whining that they won't have time to learn though. Bad for them I guess

Two sides of this coin. Both equally correct.

YES, this newer generation pf dogfighters (after split servers especially) are a bit coddly and needy. Some of us learned the game under the Fly or Die scenario. You either learned to get your butt up and off the runway without getting killed, or you constantly saw flames. We started with horrible K/D ratios, and didn't care. This new generation seems to want nice protected K/D ratios from the start.

However, on the other side...

YES, there are situations when camping and spawnkilling lack a strong strategic argument, and therefore can be assigned as rude and pointless, with the only possible point being kill/point mongering. IMO, these are few.

- BTB, plenty of strategy there, spawning and even camping can be argued when covering (a) yourself, and (b) your teammates. Sure, some people camp when there isn't a teammate in sight, and that to me is point mongering. (Personally, I bomb, head back toward base, and only turn around if fired upon, or to join a teammate who is carrying.)

- Dogfight... well, the point IS to get kills. I personally don't camp because I like some challenge, even if I have to invent it. There are some high ranked players who don't care to create challenges, and they tend to camp in Dogfight mission. So what.

- Kill Zepp Airport. Camp away. It's the only way to win on the Defend Zepp team.

- Defend Zepp Airport. Now this is one where camping over the airport is a bit pointless IMO. If you are on the Kill Zepp side and I'm on your team, you will help our side the most by popping the durned blimp, not kill mongering at the south airport. In fact, pop the blimp AND kill some reds why don't ya.

- CTC: Here's another one where camping over an airport is kill mongering IMO. Ok, maybe it can be argued that you are preventing the enemy from getting to carriers. But if my own teammate is doing this, I tell him to get over to a carrier and ACTUALLY MOVE THE NEEDLE. Instead, such a player is mongering all the points while I'm sitting on a carrier watching a needle move but not gaining jack.

Since the complaints are about Werner/Warner doing the last one, I can see everyone's point. But I can also see the point of "learn to fly, learn to avoid bullets."

My two cents.

Couldn't agree more. I've found that for absolutely every one of these "rules", there are effective countermeasures. I also prefer the methodical approach. Good game-plans will get you the win!

Both sides have merit, if I enter a game and see droppers than I can choose to stay or leave. It's forcing me to become good at dogfighting which isn't a bad thing.

However if im in a really good game with players i really enjoy and a dropper enters than a good game is ruined and bad feelings occur.

My point is that maybe the droppers ought to enter a new game instead of a ongoing game and that way people can decide if they want to stay or not from the beginning of a game, not halfway thru.

I think that's a brilliant ideal.

As always, Manfred gets the common sense trophy!

Well that's meaningless because you're handing out those things like gumdrops and telling everyone they're special.

Oh wait, I think that was your point. Ahhhhh...

When I first seen this thread I was like wth??? Now I'm WTH?!? I swear that guy isnt me, I fry with full honor, I font even kill the chutes. I feel my job is to kill planes and tanks, not the person. I fly as |111th|WernerVoss.. And my rank is way lower than that. I can't fly at moment either., my phone can't handle df graphics any more. Once I upgrade, ill be back in the air.

Nope. No hat for you.

This guy is "Werner-Voss".

If you really want one ask jacklpe. He's got 499 spares. He might need to have a party at the Jolly Roger just to give them all away.

(BTW; I glad to hear that you fry with honor.)

Yeah if I had a nickel for every Manfred Von Richtoven dude out there... I would have a dollar lol.

Maybe I should start a squad. All Manfred's. It would be like that movie Rat Race, with the busload of Lucy's screaming. Well, not *exactly* like that.

Manfred

You fry with honor Warner? Great!!! We just caught a big mess of fish. Fish fry tonight if you will be working...

Oh, come on Jacklpe! You're just checking the competition. You know damn well you've got the market cornered on that.
