    Cheers Marlins

    Had my first experience of being shot down by a Marlin tonight, and also got a few kills myself (inc. one friendly )!

    Thanks again, and I'll see you in the skies soon.

    BiG AL....you shot us all down at one point

    you done GOOD....just dont try to out climb a 190 doing over 500........

    you are the first person I have successfully pulled a "Roped a Dope"

    as you passed me both flat out, you pulled a wicked tight turn....to get on my 6.....I was just gonna do a wide fast open turn to reach out and away...when I thought "nope" do a Dak on him

    waited until you were firmly chasing....then War Power, 110 % throttle and climb......and climb.......and at the top....at stall speed pulll it over onto the camopy and look up......wait for BiG AL to slow to a stop about 500 metres below...

    (this is where German planes ROCK...that 190 HANGS upside down...cheers SKii )

    and then I waited for my nose to fall naturally where it wanted, recoreected it, hit the gas....and tucked in behind you.

    Sadly for your wing....I had Wing Pod canons AS WELL.... and your wing fell off

    you did well all night mate..you took me out on my way home nursing a bolloxed plane and I saw on screen the Big AL killed ........a few times

    YOU GOTTA MAKE IT HOME TO SCORE THO

    Luke.....you did WELL on YoYo's mate.....soon as you fly by...climb.....wait until you're parrallel and see me change direction, then swoop again.

    Stick with that Lagg 3 for a while mate......practice in it...I know you love that P39 BUT in you belly spin it......you got 5 minutes of game lost while you refly and find us again

    Both......WELL DONE

    I would love to have seen that move, but since I'm not used to not having any external views once I lost sight of you, I found it very difficult to find you again or lose you from my 6.

    Too right about me not being able to climb though, I stalled when I tried to follow you up!

    Landing is also a big problem for me on the hardest settings, but again with no external views was even more difficult - hence me ending up upside down at the end of the runway!

    Need to get my graphics card updated soon!

    Like colliding into others and shooting down friendlies? Hehehe! Gimme a couple of weeks/months and I'll probably be able to tell who's who and what's what.

    Need more practice on those damn hard settings!

    The only way is up!

    it gets easier m8y... you'll be all at sea with the navigation and no map icons, and then all of a sudden it'll snap, and you'll be able to see where you are fairly easily - by comparing features you can see on the map with features you can see on the ground.. You might wanna get a better gfx card - that helps immensly cos you can see the roads and railway lines from a sensible altitude...

    Am gonna try and get some new parts on credit from savastore.com. Pee'd off with my crappy comp! Can't wait to save!

    So far I have listed:

    HyperX 512Mb 400Mhz DDR non ECC Memory (2-3-2-6-1) - is this good memory?
    A7N8X/DLX Skt A DDR400 NForce2 Audio/Lan/SATA/FW
    256Mb Radeon 9600 XT DDR DVI-I TV Out
    Athlon XP3000+ Barton SocketA CPU OEM

    If I pass for the credit, do you think that lot will be any good?

    CBA right now, maybe later at home.

    This is only if I get credit with them though...
