K..this is not condoning gameplay style, but how is it possible to be parked up in a game and not be killed?.tried bombing, shooting, kamakazi which was funny, but it had no effect.Ive been in a game where I parked up for a sec brakes on to do something, usually coming back to find my lovely shiny plane in bits, so how does plur manage this. An intresting tactic, find a great team and let them win for u....have fun.
Btw..that is our base hes parked next to so I had to try n destroy in case he took off and bombed it..lol.

My thoughts too whip. Pluri is famous for crashing early and just sitting there for an hour while he does his ironing, although every now and then he'll jump up and bomb a hangar cuz he was just playing possum

There was no fire flame ect..and his prop was still moving, plane was intact I had a slow flypast..
Thats kinda my point, how can someone jump up and bomb if hes dead, if hes not dead how can he not be destroyed?

If you are dead a LONG time it will look intact eventually. When you can't kill him he's already dead, when playing dead you can kill him. I give him 10 for good measure every time I see him, smouldering or not.

Well put hammer. I can't stop laughing. No I don't think you understand that I really really can't stop laughing.

It's that possum comment you made. I've seen Pluribus pull this move off in a game. To refer to it as playing possum...ooohhh man...great choice of words.

And yet, I still can't stop laughing

Yeah Mike

It's exactly as the guys mentioned. When one dies and does not select "retry" the flames on the plane eventual die out and the plane remains there looking exactly like an alive player.

As Whip and Hammer mentioned it is best to make sure they are actually dead. I always put on at least 5 hits on the plane to make sure. Sometimes they are already dead, but many times to my suprise they are not and my shots put the kill on them.

If that plane is already dead, make sure to pass the word to your teammates so they do not waste their time and ammo on a dead player.

And last thing to keep in mind is that some players leave their dead planes close to an enemy base as a decoy. They know you will spent time trying to kill them as their teammates near your hangers. Sometimes every seconds counts in this game.

I think Big Gunzzz just came up with a new nickname for Pluribus... Possum-bus?
I hear the song of the Valkyries, they call to me, they bid me to take my place in the halls of Valhalla, where the brave may live forever.
