What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

[[160thNS]neighto]

Ok i just need to rant about this cause it seems lately the Kamikazis are out in full force.

Why is it people use this cheap tactic? The is nothing worse then playing a round in a chopper or jet and constantly being rammed by some smacktard with no skill. By this i dont mean the occasional ramming when two jets are going at it and just get a tad to close..

god knows there have been several times i've rammed someone unintentionally while in the midst of a dogfight and each time i always say sry to the other pilot for ramming.

I just dont understand intentionally ramming. If someone ever comes to our server and intentionally rams time after time they will be kicked.

OK GUYS you have missles, rockets, bombs and guns. USE THEM OR STAY OUT OF THE JETS AND HELOS SO SOMEONE WITH SKILL CAN USE THEM PROPERLY!!!!!!!

To each their own I guess - as long as the kamikazi pilot doesn't have a co-pilot or any team mates that will be killed because of his actions, I don't really mind; they can kamikazi as much as they want for all I care.

Like I said though, as soon as it starts negatively affecting the team, they need to lay off!

People ram other people because the missles don't work properly. I've had times where i fire 3 missles at a jet flying straight on right after he launched the flares and 2 of those missles never hit the target. Its frustrating.

The jets are way gimp... i must say. They are good for bombing ground forces... but dogfighting does not exist in this game.

If I want a dogfight, I have to go play desert combat.

I often hit a BH or Cobra on Dalian, because like the other guys said, the missiles suck, and the gun can't deal out enough damage before i come into point-blank range, i don't try to, because i always try to keep my J-10 in the air. It's not always on purpose, if it is, chances are, the guys were BH whoring or they can't fly a jet or something.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

I hate people who SLOW down to kill a chopper. It's pretty much impossible if the chopper pilot has any skill at all. The only way to kill a chopper is to ram it. Good tactic or not it's really lame. That's when you camp their carrier/air strip though.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

I think a lot of kamikaze pilots are just going for their aerial service ribbon

They KNOW they can't get 19 kills in a round by actually shooting them down...ramming a full BH = 6 kills. Do that 3 times and you're nearly there.

If they change some of the ribbon requirements in the patch, we may see less of this.

Usually they are people who don't normally pilot jets...they are just ribbon hunting.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

I've rammed some choppers unintentionally, with jets. I have rammed Helicopters with another Helicopter before, intentionally. But this was only because i was alone, in a transport chopper, with 2 cobras, a black hawk, and that chinese attack helicopter, all in the same spot.

When in a jet, by the time you have a missile lock on a helicopter and fire, you've already flown past it.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

Kamikaziing(sp) for more then one kill is perfectly respectable. The tickets speak for themselves. Also Ill oocasionly kamikazi if there is a great pilot on the other team (attack or jet) and we have taken their airbase. Ill take the ticket hit for my team, then he won't be in the air for a while.

Yeah, they must suck, i got a score of 58 on my new account by using a J-10, first award i ever got, it was so easy JSF's suck, and cobra's suck, and some of the BH pilots don't drop flares, i always wait for the flares, then shoot.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

Think of kamikazi aircraft as a temporary measure to rid the map of no skill sploiter pilots until they patch the whorehawk and the AA.

I think it's hilarious that pilots whine about this "no skill" tactic while racking up huge scores bombing infantry with utter impunity.

They wanna be able to type IDKFA and continue being the gods they are in their own minds. Suffer.

If planes and choppers weren't so stupidly overbalancing for the game, it wouldn't be happening anywhere near as much kthx.

Re: What gives with all the Kamikazi Pilots?

I am an excellent pilot in BF-2.

I can decimate ground targets with the machine guns and shoot down aircraft with them as well.

I can BOMB aircraft, and rain hell upon ground forces with the bombs.

I can dogfight, and shoot down enemy planes much of the time.

When I see a Blackhawk, and I know a whoring-crew is in there, I will try to shoot it down, but after 2 passes and it is still up - you guessed it - BANZAI !!!!!

Hmmm, 12 pionts for 1 death (a 6-1 kdr)...looks like a no-brainer to me.

ALL of my points are legitimate (no padding).

ALL of my medals were EARNED (no help from padders).

I do not use the noob tube, and do not bunny hop.

I do not punish tk's.

Noob ? - umm, no - just a player that comes out on top, and listens to people whine when they get beaten up on...ALOT.

323 is the best I did in a round, and that was chopper-whoring.

I do not feel guilty for that, because on our server there are TEAMS of anti-Blackhawk squads, and keeping the chopper up is stressful, and requires 6 people in perfect harmony and rapt concentration to get it done.



Get 20 people in teamspeak, and see whoring at its finest !!

its all out war afterall.

if your team is getting owned by the air, you gotta do whatever it takes to get rid of them.
