Amazing pilot.

Re: Amazing pilot.

planewhore, i just watched your video thing, speaking of a lack of skilled enemy pilots.....

not to mention you couldn't take down the SU34 on *i think it was* 2 occassions, atleast 1 of those stuck in my mind unless someone else shot down the plane and it just wasn't in your visibility.. i couldn't read who/what was being killed

oh and PS: I suck in a plane, so please don't waste your time with the "you suck in a plane so your opinion doesn't matter" comments

The thing you've got to understand about how I pilot is that everything I do when I fly has a purpose, even if it looks like I've made a mistake. Granted, I make the rare mistake or two, but to be fair that video was shot what seems well over a year ago and I'd say at my peak I was at least an estimated 2-2.5x better than in that Gulf of Oman video, as towards the end of my piloting streak I was getting banned off servers left and right for cheating pulling 150 points every single round regardless of the map. It's a real shame just when I'm reaching some kind of nirvana of piloting skill DICE ruins air to air / airplanes in general with poorly thought out patches and balance decisions.

Back to how I pilot though, just an example:

I might attack the SU-32 if it's in my way, but for me it's a balancing act. I factor in a lot when I'm piloting about how to best spend my time. Should I bother chasing this SU-32 that isn't killing anyone when the real threat is currently the tanks or APC capping flags, well of course not. That's the most critical aspect to being an effective pilot is spending your time wisely, but of course if it's right in front of me I'm going to attack but I'm not going to burn valuable seconds in a round shooting down some inept bomber whom is a complete non factor. You better believe if that bomber had been fragging like I was I would've been on it like **** on a pig until I shot him down then I would've heavily camped him on the runway the rest of the round. Of course the bomber/fighter pilots ended up at the bottom of the scoreboard, another way of saying a worthless target.

That's the kind of approach I take that makes me the best pilot statistically speaking, and that's why Colony could never get close to my real combat effectiveness or raw score or kills per minute. Pilots like Colony wants to have a top gun fight with the moron proof AA missiles, on the other hand I want to dominate and win (and have fun during, of course).

i played with on Dragon Valley. We were squaded up and we were both using planes...all of his kills are in a plane...most of mine are too...

Well what do you expect.. he's in a J10! I bet he flew against some noobs on the other side.

Pulling this kind of score off in a J10 is next to nothing when you're a decent pilot.

Re: Amazing pilot.

FRAG isn't a top CAL team by any means. Also your point that you've never been shot down by one, or that you always shoot them down, or whatever you said, holds no value.

What you fail to realize is that in a pub, no competition players care. At all. If you shoot them down they don't care. Also, pubs have a million other factors that give certain pilots unfair advantages. A better ground team mounting AA or a chopper that can TV guide a jet can help the lesser pilot. Or maybe there's 2 good pilots vs. one good one.

Pubs are not the place to prove your "leetness."

Re: Amazing pilot.

I can't speak to the fact of Colony using hacks, but I can speak to the rest of PlaneWhore's assertions about how Colony achieves his results. I flew with him as USMC against PLA on Wake for three rounds. During the rounds he was never shot down and never ejected when a J10 was on his tail. I would have seen him as the re-spawn, but I never did. The pilots were at least fair as I was shot down many times. Not as often as usual though because Colony seems to have perfected destroying the J10s before they take off.

Colony uses the high altitude speed advantage of the F35 very well. I would watch him on the map and was amazed how fast he would go from one end of the map to the other. Since that time I myself have become much better at using this advantage and I can see first hand how with a little more practice, it could easily double my effectiveness. He did not shy away from a head on attack at the J10s and I did not see him using stealth techniques for dogfighting.

I think the only way to solve this question would be a head on between PlaneWhore and Colony. Maybe load up the Dogfight Day map on a server and let you two go at it.

Let us know the time and place, I'll be there!

Re: Amazing pilot.

As Traci_Kila_Lords said, I'd love to see this!

Re: Amazing pilot.

I'll add that from my experiences on the Dogfight Servers to name one, When pilots get to a certain skill level if they are up against another pilot of anywhere near the same skill level and they are in equal jets, they will fly to a stalemate. After all this is a video game.

I never claimed Colony did any of these things, I was talking about the 200:1 ratio player in the original post. Colony is a great pilot, and so am I, but he's also not an idiot. Colony knows as well as I do if I had a J-10 he wouldn't have a chance in hell, and the reverse is true. It's just poor game balance, and really even suggesting aerial combat in the current patch is laughable, but if DICE finally realizes the error of their ways and reverts airplanes and the airplane AA missiles back to 1.1ish status I'll be more than game.

The airplanes in this game right now are just in a sad state, and that's the bottom line. Two pilots in exactly the same plane will deadlock, and in the other scenario whoever has the J-10 wins. Back in 1.1 AA missiles took skill to land and if you used them right you would hit a J-10, or an F-35B.. you name it, and without a hassle. That factor alone more than made up for the airplane imbalances that still exisited in that patch. The J-10 still needs to be toned down though, and until DICE does these things the air to air mini game isn't worth the powder to blow it to hell.

Re: Amazing pilot.

The ultimite pilot was planewhore... that was his name.lol

http://bf2s.com/player/48131109/

thats his account, he stopped playing a long time ago though, just think if he continued what it would be.
colony has nothing on that guy.

He didn't stop playing...

Yeah I agree... you actually had to have some timing to them.

I hate J-10's so much...

Re: Amazing pilot.

i couild easily go 60 and 0 in a j10. prolly 50&5 in a watever the american jet is. u just g2 have the skill

[fuzzywuzzy123]

Re: Amazing pilot.

Listen to Planewhore "wah wah wah the AA missles actually shoot me down wah wah wah now i go 60-2 every map now wah wah wah the jets are so unbalanced"

On A side note Colony will wipe the floor with you mr. "planewhore" when he plays in my server (101st) even our best pilots have a hard time with him.
