Honor, a word that get tossed around here alot, but what does it actualy mean? Does it mean to fly right down the center of the field into a death trap where you can be killed easier? Or is it giving it your best shot? To set a example for tough compassion and sport. Most will say if you dont play their way, ur "scum". Well so what? Reds might get ticked off but blues (your team) will love you. Honor, to win the game or flatter stats, to make it easy on ur opponent's or beat them BAD. Why let a bunch of babies stop you from playing how hou want, where you can enjoy the game. Who made up these rules anyways? This is a COMBAT STRATEGY game. Why let babies stop you and put you on a chain and tell you "no, you cant be the best you can be" "no, you cant sneak to win the game" "no, you cant camp and spawnkill wile your TEAMcomes in to bomb". This is all of our game people. Now we can stand up for a better future, or stand down while a tough fight gets put to rest. Im a ferm believer in camping, sneaking and spawn killing. No I dont do it for the stats. I do Iit to help the game, to help myself and my team win.

if people cant handle the fact thats its straight up idiotic and bs to fly down the center amd get killed over and over for a pointless cause then they should play candycrush. Ive had my fair share of campers, sneakers and spawnkillers. And I respect it cause its logical and 9 times out of 10, theyre gonna win. Fighting off campers, sneakers and spawnkillers has done nothing but made me a better pilot amd person. To know that I gave it 100 and I didnt bitch or complain, its a real sence of accomplishment. To know that I am a strong pilot and I do got balls of steal. Thats something to be proud about. I speak for myself and all those who agree. Have a nice day :)

I do agree with some of your points here. You have to do what you must to win no matter what! But as for "Honor", you must know when to do some of the things mentioned above and when not to....

Camping obviously has its uses, but its not really necessary to stay above base, draw them away so they cant turn to a bomber and take them down by the hanger, lead them to where the bomber isnt headed.... I have even drawn them to the back corner LOL. But at least draw them out towards the middle then twist them up in a turnfight. However camping over base and spawnkilling over and over is not very honorable.

Spawnkilling is touchier, it is really only ok in my opinion when you are approaching with a bomb, in real war would a plane incoming with a bomb not fire on an enemy taking of to engage? I used to not do this, but it is common place if to get your bomb off, and rightfully so. But spawn killing while sitting on your tank in a dogfight game, or just camping and sk'ing wouldnt exactly be honorable.

Sneaking is not a big deal but you should be smart about it, if you just enter a game and VonHulk is 167-34, this might not be the best time to go for a sneak if you want to play with honor.

Dropping people need to calm down about honestly, I almost always fly with at least one bomb in bombing missions, but if i am alone and come to 3 reds, sorry i'm dropping 120% of the time to push them back for my team behind me! Also if i go up the middle over and over and dont get in, alot of times i can drop both just to get close enough with the tank and BAM! and other times if nobody is getting in i can drop and tie up 2 or 3 in a turnfight for a long time and take some heat off the rest of my team. So there are many reasons to drop, but if i dont have a reason, i'm always carrying.

If you are using these tactics in a strategy war combat game and in an honorable way, if anybody has an issue with it they should learn to overcome it rather than complain about it.

Well, your pap shudda told you about this, but here goes...

She offered her honor, I honored her offer, and all night long I was honor and offer.

Clear it up any?

Finally, someone with some sense:) personally, I get tired of all the crying. It amounts to cyber bullying trying to force everyone up the middle. It's idiotic. As far as camping and spawn killing, the planes only have so much ammo, it will end when you either shoot me down, or I run out of bullets:)

Honestly, I've decided to never post on one of these "Honor vs Sneaking/Camping/Spawnkilling" threads again.

I'm gonna play my way from now on. If you're nice, and ask me to stop in a game, I probably will. I know how I play, and I'll let y'all find out how I play.

The idea that anybody's honor is at stake? B*tch please. The "They know how weak they are, but won't admit it" guilt trip bit ain't gonna work, mate.

My response when someone gets butthurt about my high-flying style? "You mad, bro?"

People like Boudicca and Hulk? Of course we have to reroute. The maddening middle muddle takes a LONG time to finish, fellas. Those are good pilots.

I should also mention, I DON'T sneak roughly 88% of the time.

How about all of us who appreciate and use actual tactics just do our thing and play the game, and let the narrow-minded, rut-running homosapiens attempt to evolve? Darwinism, for the win.

Author's note: If kindly requested to play a certain style, I will. I realize that not everyone who objects to tactics is stupid. I do love me some Valley of Death occasionally. I'm merely referring to the jerks who think I should only play their way, anyway.
You're getting predictable, guys. You can do better, right?

Thank you sir Mac, for saying that you "have" to find another way. Please do me a favor, don't change your style of play. I won't. If someone asked me to "stop flying down the middle", do you think I would? Use your brain and fly the way you wish. It's just a game, have fun any way you wish.

See thats what im saying. This game has many tatics you can use and play with. Why just choose the easiest one (flying straight down the middle) and calling it "honor" and the rest (who uses the others tactics) is "scum"? Mac said it right though (of course) :p
