Re: is Kamakazi a legit battle tactic???

Real war has no shortage of kamakazis and suicide bombers.

Thats true. However you've taken my comment out of context :)
I said "kamikaze jet pilots". So yes I'm aware there are suicide bombers. You just gotta watch the evening news to know that

But the way I mean is, people do it in game cos they know they'll respawn in 15seconds and so will the $300million F15 jet (well that price is a guess, i have nfi really lol)

So yeah in real battle there wouldn't be kamikaze jet pilots in F15s. :p

In real war there are no "rules", theres no "cheap tactic", everything goes.

When you get shot in real war, there wont be any place for you to whine about "base raping", be glad its only a simulation.

I swear if I need to say this one more time I'm going to put it in my sig:

THIS IS NOT REAL WAR IT IS A GAME!

The fact that it is a game based on war DOES NOT MAKE IT A WAR.

In a real war there are no points, no even teams, and you certaintly aren't fighting on a different side every battle.

They respawn in 15 seconds, but they get a death. So, like in real-life, they still pay a heros price. And yes, in real life the jet would be very expensive, but so would the black hawk you're ramming it into.

In this game, no one does things for the same reason they would in a real war. They do it for the satisfaction of winning/getting lots of points/a good k/d ratio, not because they are fighting for a cause they believe

And there have been kamikazes in real-life with planes. Do you know where the term "kamikaze" came from? It originated with WW2 Japanese fighter pilots ramming US ships with their planes (the same way people ram black hawks).

Yes I know where the term kamikaze comes from.

My gripe is simply with jet pilots doing kamikaze runs to get points. :p

Ok so I'm lame, I drove a jeep in karkand into the next spawn point after the hotel, there were 6 USMC capping it, jumped out, hit the button, blew myself up, but made a pretty USMC rainfall of 6 very VERY annoyed players. Seconds later, a medic healed me, we capped the flag and then a little later won the game.

The tatic in the game works, as it does make the other side angry enough to try and hunt you or spend ages typing nasty's at you and not playing.

They also don't congregate arounds flags as much after and all go anti tank so they can blat Jihad Jeeps....


6 for 1, I took the hit. I worked out well.

I hunt tanks in Jihad Jeeps, APC's and Tanks love to spawn camp. JJ's REALLY put them off.

JJ's and a good engineer on the MEC team can scare all but the most ardent USMC armour players or make them stay away from the hotel at their dual spawn points. Ive seen it where noone on the USMC team wants to get into a tank.

Anti Armour is great, but a spec ops in a JJ who can also use the 50 cal, can be a real game winner.

Sit and murder infantry with the 50, see an APC or Tank, drive round the back and depending on your luck, kamikazi it or drive up, park, run and HIT THE BUTTON.

Most of my plane or heli kamikazes were unintentional as I was shooting the thing and run out of ammo or didn't pull up and blew it up with my own plane.

Re: is Kamakazi a legit battle tactic???

Kamakazi is a tatic for a loser pilot who can aim well as if he or she is ****ing on the enemy. Aim your plane and whiz away!

I am a very good pilot and sometimes whenever i see a helicopter i try to take it out with mini guns, most of the time i turn away right before i hit it to go around for another turn. However, sometimes theres moments when you aim for it a second too long in hopes that you will kill it with the miniguns. But when you try to avoid it you just crash into it.. and then they start yelling..etc..

Most times it IS an accident, i mean, who would REALLY want to give up their plane for 2 kills when they can just swing around for another shot at them, blow them up, and then continue on to bomb that nearby enemy jeep?

Re: is Kamakazi a legit battle tactic???

Or use the rotor ramming thing, killing the helo and you staying alive

What?

Re: is Kamakazi a legit battle tactic???

One thing thats ****ing me the most is jet ramming when they try to shoot you, they cant so they decide to ram into you insead of pulling away. And YES it is done on purpose just to score points. The only difference is, these idiots are not noobs, noobs cant fly jets or choppers that good.
The answer to your questions is, even though it is ****ing us off, it is legit. The only thing we can do is call a vote kick and hope to get rid of these pricksat least for that round.
