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. :)

must of missed u tonight ,never mind plenty of time to kill ya yet (do u use big_al as ur name?)
also had a darn good sesh tonight with loads a kills :)
Yeah, names is Big_Al in HL. Look forward to seeing you in the skies too! :)
BiG AL....you shot us all down at one point :D
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 :D
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 :D)
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! :P
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! :D
Need to get my graphics card updated soon! :(
Well done Al. Was some interesting stuff going on ;)
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.Quote:

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...
Know where I can get a loan? Heh :DQuote:
