Close, got 4 on the 1st time out then got PK'd on the way home, the other 2 were in the next flight then it went to pot...

Lol. You ****ers have to treat me gently, right?

Err no fraid not me ol mucka we do play rather a fun game though The *Ace* flies straight at level giving you every opportunity to line him up, he is allowed to take zero evasive action till you fire. At which point it becomes a free for all. I think Luke holds the record for been nailed quickest youd have a job to nail him now Other good way to learn is to fly wing to someone. The best pilot in this game is
2 pilots acting as a team

[luke313]

Luke holds the record for being nailed the quickest?? You mean - Luke holds the record for being the only plane Dak has shot down this side of the new year

[[GSV]Trig]

I'd say the best pilot is 1 high keeping an eye out, 1 fighting and one just above and behind him watching close...

Work well the otherday until Luke got shot down

[Zak33]

I'd say the best Pilot is TiG or Dak with me on their arse so tight that I can wipe it for 'em.

I cant shoot sh1t, but I CAN tail gate

[TiG]

heh - i'd prefer to have you where i can see you just incase i find my wing suddenly gets ripped off in a hail of bullets

But seriously Zak's great for reminding you good practise, regain height after an attack.

TiG

[Zak33]

well friendly fire is my thing

[DaBeeeenster]

Right then. The s/w has arrived but the joystick has not. I have installed and patched. What next!?!?!

[yamangman]

You mean, you've got both IL-2 FB and the Aces and have installed both the patches?

Ok next i'd say download HyperLobby:

http://hyperfighter.jinak.cz/

and wait for your waggle device

[DaBeeeenster]

Got hyperlobby installed. I keep stalling all the planes. Dear oh dear.

Is there any way I can connect to a server and make a fool of myself with the hexus peeps?

[Tumble]

if you're on tonight - I can host up a df server for ya.. your HL name same as t'forums???

[DaBeeeenster]

HL Name? I am off to the cinema tonight but will be around later? How do I work hyperlobby? Is there a server you connect to to discuss which server to play on etc etc?

[Tumble]

righty Hyperlobby.... select your game (Forgotten Battles) from the list. Type in a username and password (of your choosing) You'll then be asked to reenter you password in the chat box (like IRC chat box) and your email... before you log in tho - check the boxes by your name and p/w, so you won't have to enter them again. Then look for anyone tagged up MA_ and shout
