I always water land on servers that require you to fuck off when you turn on the nav lights. I also hate people that attack you when landing, and people that boom & zoom to avoid any combat.

[QUOTE=Carnotite;19563926]I thought the entire point of boom n' zoom was to avoid getting into combat, since you're likely to get out-turned?[/QUOTE] It does get annoying in open cockpit arcade servers, along with everyone flocking over to one bomber, or one plane, and shoulder shooting the fuck out of it.

I'm not buying a fuckin joystick for a fuckin old piece of shit game, fuck that shit. I bought the game but there was nothing on the store page saying that i need a fuckin joystick.

Use the arrow keys champ.

And a piece of shit? You haven't even played it properly.

[QUOTE=skparagon;19546036]Anyone know why my plane keeps going up? I know it's the game because when I play wings of prey it's fine. But even when i'm not pressing anything it keeps either going to the right or upward. It's too hard to play like that. I tried it with the joystick and keyboard, they both have the same result.[/QUOTE] No one answered this correctly, but you can adjust your trim settings. The reason the plane tends to go upwards is because of the shape of its wings. You can adjust the trim to make it so you fly straight. By not doing so, and then having to correct it endlessly, you are wasting fuel and airspeed. Also the plane tends to go to the right or left because of the spinning of the propeller applying a force in said direction.

But seriously, you thought you'd be able to play a flight sim with your mouse and keyboard alone? Lol.

You know how long it's taken me to type this with the on-screen keyboard?

I thought since it was called Windows you could just open it and have access to everything, kind of like a thief

To his detriment, the game works fine with the arrow keys. I don't understand what he's complaining about. I get what he means though. You wouldn't think that a racing game REQUIRED a racing wheel, or that a fighting game REQUIRED an arcade stick.

I'm not on the server a lot, I'll be on more frequently on weekends.

[QUOTE=TicTac;19595452]I'm not on the server a lot, I'll be on more frequently on weekends.[/QUOTE] No one ever seems to be on anyway.

[QUOTE=KigJow;19581039]It's how he put it in words that got everyone thinking he's a 13 year old troll, which he probably is.[/QUOTE] Do you even know what a troll is?

[QUOTE=Cheesemonkeh;19596538]Do you even know what a troll is?[/QUOTE] Yes. Why do you ask?

[QUOTE=KigJow;19598046]Yes. Why do you ask?[/QUOTE] Because he's clearly not one of them.

well because usually when people know what the word means they don't attribute it to 13 year olds or quite frankly anyone like him

I was just playing in the Skies of Fire server, loaded up my bomber with an 800Kg bomb and headed to Blue's airfield... Dum de Dum, made it without a hitch, saw 2 guys firing up their engines... surrounded by hangers, and static cars... I dived a bit, let her go, and made a 180 back for base... I look behind me and see BOOOOM, both dudes in the planes vaporized, ALL the hangers went up in an explosion, ALL the cars went up in an explosion.... I got 2 aircraft, 23 Cars, and 5 Hangers, and even made it back to base... I went from 360pts to 1150, Of course the Hangers don't count for points

[QUOTE=Kyle902;19602130]You accidentally the whole base?[/QUOTE] I'm surprised that he didn't get swarmed at first sight. That's a quality that most arcade servers have.

They were all occupied with a few other fighters around, Apparently it's the big thing for an entire Side to just gang up on one plane at at time, even though it's against the server rules to shoulder shoot and steal kills

It's pretty funny when you see like 5 planes chasing a bomber, then some idiot in the back starts shooting and accidentally blows off his teammates wing.
