        I despise kamikaze jet pilots. See, I play this game as how I would be in real life - try and stay alive! If the only way to kill someone is to run through enemy fire, then I'll hang back and wait for a different option. I know its points points points for most people in this game, but I prefer to play it in a realistic way. Unfortunately my stats don't show this lol!

        Anyways thats my 2cents. :)

          For the most part I'd say suicide ramming is the domain of the untalented.

            Anything possible with game mechanics is legit, if its cheap, its EA's fault for building it in, and should be considered a bug.

            Kamakazi is just another tactic, theres nothing wrong with it. It is however a noobish tactic since doing it rarely helps yourself or your team, so if it is considered a "tactic" to begin with they can do whatever they want with it.

              Real war has no shortage of kamakazis and suicide bombers.

                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.

                  Kamikaze with a jet in a public game is lame IMO. If you aren't skilled enough to take someone out with the 20mm then you shouldn't fly. Load up transport and helos with C4 and knock yourself out, at least that can be defended against

                  In a match you may do as you like, there the objective is winning not having fun as public matches are.

                    On the ground it's a good tactic. I don't think it's cool to ram helicopters. It's just some noob deciding he'll take the -1 to take out a full transport helo. At least in a tank, you can usually, quite easily, destroy the incoming bomber. In a helo it's almost impossible to avoid.

                    I don't know why people can't get it through their heads that they are still killed in game. It doesn't matter whether you're shot, run over, bombed, TOW missiled, sniped, stabbed, difibulatored, chute didn't open, etc. It's all the same. You die.

                        kamakazi in the plane is fun, at least at the end of the round.

                          If I am in a jet with no weapons left and I see a BH in the horizon then yes, otherwise no.

                          If people ram you with they still have guns and missiles then no it's a lame tactic.

                          Ramming as a LAST RESORT is valid.

                            I never kill myself using jihads, i just drive up to him, and jump out then BOOM.

                            Is it still lame if I actually don't kill myself?...

                            Not killing yourself! You gently stab the pilot of the BH with your pitot.

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

                              In real life, their were Kamikaze pilots. I stated this before, but in WWII, the japanize would fly their planes into anything if they knew they were going to get shot down. That's why people feared the jap pilots.

                                Hmmm I dont think it's black and white. It's hard to argue against it as a legitimate tactic as kamikaze in various forms is actually used in real-life battles. I personally dont have a problem with jihad-jeepers, but what does **** me off is jet pilots kamikazing into a loaded transport chopper rather than shotting it down. A bit hypocritical I suppose, but it does annoy me more than other forms of kamikaze for some reason.
