Mr squiggles two dots squiggles has already made my list of fellas to spawn kill. :evil: waiting to get one that he isn't lagging in. He lags terrible. Spawned me twice due to his nasty lag. I was behind him at my air port shooting him. He was flying straight at my run way and shooting. I hit him like ten times and i got shot down. :( i was behind him. then another right after that. He was across the map. Killed me two more times and i was alone. I was gettin pissed. Not because of the SK but because I couldn't pay it back. He blinked out of that one.

Saw him in another one. I spawn against 5 reds alone and start the killing. He says "I've got bullets for Max" I lost conn before I had a chance to punish him. Added him to my list that day.

Last time I saw him he wasn't lagging but I was pounding the last few shots in to a carrier from a tank. Bounced him for a fast loss in about 2 seconds flat. I should have auto destroyed and made it last.

Hard to get screen shots of an arse whooping on deck but i will try. He needs it.

More of an observation than a compliment but it made me :evil:. I got away with it in this particular game, not a common occurrence.






By the way Policeman 11 showed a lot of promise.

I didnt post this because I didnt want it in the hands of the enemy lol I thought I would share this with OUR team though. I don't really do this but it works.... If you are using a apple device double tap your screen with two-three fingers and it will zoom in on the reticle. Then double tap again for it to go back. I don't know if this is common knowledge so forgive me if it is.




dam I never new that this will explain why the noobs can take us down from distance

Hmmmmmm very interesting. I never new that either. I'm going to try that. I'm pretty good at sniping from a distance already though. You can learn something new in this game every month. All i ever see when I tried tapping the screen is the sun in the map get brighter. If you hold your finger on the screen.

Edit: nope it doesn't work. Not on my pad any way. I tapped and poked every where. 2 fingers, 3 fingers, double tap, triple tap, thumb & forehead, big toe & pinky finger. Nothing.

It works, but it has to be turned on. Settings>general>accessibility>zoom... Toggle on

I don't use it. You loose too much of the peripheral on the screen. Depending on where you tap, you may have to adjust the screen to see your fire button. You have to drag the screen with 3 fingers to drag it. I'm sure it's perception but sensitivity seems different while you're zooming too.

Anyone who isanyone shot me down...I guess it is one of those days where I should of stayed away from the game. I couldn't even see anyone bullets when they shot me down...It was one of the worse dogfight days since I started lol......I must of given my squad a bad name today..... :)

Yeah yeah "I hate snow".... Well that's the great equalizer for me. The snow maps are the only ones where I can see the all the reds(ranks, names,insignias, and planes)most of the game. The contrast provided isn't impacted by my color blindness. Tanks don't stand a chance either. Those are also the only maps that I'm not mowing the grass with my prop. I get a lot more chute kills because of that.

MORE SNOW!!!!

Maybe a little of both. I'm at that stage in life where I almost need bifocals. I can't read or play this game with my normal glasses on. Partly because of this game and partly because I do so much work on a computer, I've all but stopped wearing contacts and switched back to glasses. But none of the cheaters I've tried out at the drug store make it better and the eye doc says I don't need 'em yet. So, I takes of my glasses and takes off in my plane.

Agree with Max...someone is living in iPad fantasyland if they can do that...more likely, its just that I have a clunking iPad I...which still don't fly or shoot given the slow fill rate when the smoke and fire start up....

I shut my eyes and sleep in the parachute while floating downward. Awwww it's so peaceful and quiet. Sometimes my ipad battery gets low so i take a nap while it recharges. I NEED TO CLONE MYSELF so i can play more.

I need two iPads so i can play on one while the other charges.

I've figured out how to eat while playing. Take bites right after takeoff until you get near the reds.

Hold your phone to your ear with DUCKTAPE so you can play at the same time.

Be careful when trying to poop, dont drop ipad in toilet.

Always pee sitting down so you can continue playing.

AND THEY SAY IM ADDICTED.

Dead gammit Davy,
that was the worst adwice ever. :angry:
I did as you said and ducktaped the phone to my ear.
It was hard as hell to get up in the air, and I chould have choosen the other ear.
I couldnt get to the fire button.
My eyes hurts after trying to see the screen and I think it was superglue on that bloody ducktape.
I'm not shure if my ear is ever going to get its shape back again.
I was on the floor squeeling like a nuttered pig while the Mrs had to stand on my head and use both hands to get the phone from my ear.
She thretened to ground me if I ever listen to your adwice again DC.

Message to Dragon 800

Wanted to let you know I gave Bogey_1 an earful for not letting you take off from the carrier in the BTC mission. He felt bad after and wanted to apologize. He claims he was only killing when incoming bombs were approaching but I think it might have been a little more than that. I told him that it wasn't cool and not to do that next time. Hopefully he learned.

Thanks!

Wow, this zoom feature is cool! My phone is off (battery charging) right now, so I can't check if it works on Android, but unfortunately I believe it doesn't have this option.
For fairplay purposes, Zup should include this zoom feature on the android version of the game (in the apk itself)...

I always thought that the guys from Texas are the toughest one can get,
but now I'm not so sure anymore. :huh:

(Oskars) surstömming is a delicacy that is often enjoyed in the late summer and autumn here in Sweden.
Often together with a DRAM or five :whistle:

Ok I checked out the zoom. Here's what I think.

A. It limits your view. You can't see very far side to side which gets you killed.
B. you can't see hits register. Until the parashoot deploys you don't really know you have a kill. Wastes time on targets.
C. The arrows that tell you where an enemy is on the edge of the screen are out of view. Making it useless in a DF.
D. Throttle doesn't want to respond.
E. Fire button was sticking on. I had to double click to get it to stop firing.

The zoom is not that much greater on the pad. Phone users i think would benefit the most. Tried to screen shot it but it gets the whole screen just like normal. Personally I'm better of with out it. Lucky it was all noobs in the test run. It may not be bad to snipe off the occasional tank at distance.

well, the fire/smoke issue persists for the iPad I....I find I dont want to shoot anyone cause the minute their flaming wreck appears on my screen I go into slow mo that would let little orphan annie blow me away... For all you iPad haters, nows the time to jump in cause we SUCK.... :evil: :angry:

Guess I should clarify that statement... I was already a sitting duck, now I just help by holding up a target that says," shoot me..."

This so called zoom has nothing to do with the game, it is an iOS facility to enlarge the screen for people with bad eyesight, similar to that which you can find on your pc or laptop. As such it is of no real benefit in game as it restricts your capabilities to line up a target and then swipe the screen (using 3 fingers) to give access to the fire or bomb button and if you happen to be a joystick user....you're buggered.
So all in all it doesn't give noobs, or anyone else an edge. Like I say its an iOS ability, nothing to do with Z or the game.
