Hi all, I've recently just stated to fly, well try at least. Mogambo helped me out with the ground bombing with some great tips. Now i'm getting pretty good at that. I was woundering if any of your expert fly boys could give any tips on how to loose a tail from a pursuing jet? This seems to be where I get shot down 90 percent of the time. I've tried banking sharp left and right etc, but not a great tactic.
I dont understand how the AA could have been less effective pre 1.2 patch. Its fairly easy to take out AA with the cannon before more cannon and bombs on target, even on the ESSEX.

Any flying tips would be greatly appriciated.

Cheers,


Ant

1 word.....PLANEWHORE

Google it and download both his vids...the Gulf of Oman (bombing) Wake island (dogfighting)

He is active on the Total BF2 forums and Planet Battlefield forums so its worthwhile reading them....its where i got my tips from

And to lose a pursuing jet....you need to watch me evade one as i can't explain it.#

Edit

And why you're at it, download his PKM video as well....
arch3r
gambo don't help him cos your sh*t at flying.
MadAntUK
Thanks Gambo for the PLANEWHORE, and thanks archer for your constructive input. I watched some of PLANEWHORES videos and it was interesting to see that he very rarely got hassled by enemy jets, and when he did he does a bit of loop the loop to the side, and then carries on bombing the hell out of ground targets and choppers. I'll keep trying different moves to loose those pesky pursuing jets.

Bye the way, when looking for PLANEWHORE videos I came across ‘Mine 2’, don’t know if you have seen this sequel already.

Ignore him Ant, he's not exactly renowned for his intelligence...after all he thinks CSS is the greatest game ever.

I hate to say it, but there are no easy answers here, i learnt the hard way...you gotta get into the air and get your ass handed to you if you wanna learn.

Oh dear ph34r.gif

tut tut tut cos you can't play css or is it that you are sh*t at it. you can play bf2 you are ok at the game still i kick ass in the air. and i still do tongue.gif cool.gif
mogambo
Well obviously i am poo at it, i dont play it....Logic ever heard of it?

And IMO CSS sucks, for a pure infantry game the inability to lean around corners or prone makes it total donkey crap. The hitboxes on that game are the size of Jupiter. Ive seen people get headshots with the choice noob weapon AWP when they have actually shot 2 inches to the left/right of them! seriously wtf?

And is it me that doesnt understand why i have to BUY weapons?! Just give me the fookin gun i want and let me kill people damit. Oh and its the fav game of myg0t...that says it all.

You can fly jet in BF2...wow, its the ONLY thing you can do and its not a hard feat attaing Capt Chimp of the PLA forces is it?
arch3r
hahahahahahahaha. no it's not the only thing i do in bf2 who do you think you are calling dumb. i play in no awp's servers and to get money to buy guns is a good thing. see css is a game of skill thats what you don't have.ok your a Capt wow you are so fookin cool.
it's the only game you can play ok or is it that it's the only game you are good at.
mogambo
nothing to see
arch3r
lol no i did good at school lol loser. and i have a hnd in computing so i must be dumb. i like been a secruity guard be nice wee boy lets put an end to this sh*t ok so you don't like css thats ok. you don't have to call me dumb and a loser did i call you dumb and a loser no i did not. so what is PLA forces is that your clan?
mogambo
Peoples Liberation Army?

I rest my case.
MadAntUK
OMG, what have I started? Dont worry, your both shed loads better than me.
arch3r
Dont worry m8 it's not you. so ant what bf2 server do you play on. thats me bk playing bf2 but am still playing css
MadAntUK
I've been playing on Bamboo Commandos (85.236.101.9:16665), 50Klicks (85.236.101.109:16567) one called ‘9 rounds Gulf of Oman’ (where I've been practicing my flying techniques) and on some of the ‘TV2’ servers. None are as good as the old GS server. Nobody seems to use VOIP or play in squads anymore, unless you're in a clan which i dont have the time for.
Cheers,
Ant
mogambo
He sometimes plays on The Bamboo Commandos server or rather Bamboo Clowns is more apt.....as they banned me yesterday! As "i artied the carrier 3 times" Bullsh!t.

I saw your post Ant, and if you dont know watch the BC guys more closley as....

They kick to get jets
They kick to get the attack helos
They kick to get armour (Mashtuur, Sharqi and Karkand)
They dystroy aircraft so non clowns dont have access
They kick the commander to let in an admin.....yeah real subtle
They stand in front of jets to force TK's
They baserape contrary to their own rules

I started to take screenshots of them as they are contravening the terms and conditions of ranked servers....i have a good mind to submit them to bf2rankedservers...dont know if i can be arsed.

My advice is to steer clear.....50 Klicks and the SAS clan are better servers....i only used to play on BC as commander as it was pointless getting into hardware.
MadAntUK
I also found out the hard way that some of these clowns are complete w*nkers. A couple kicked me for getting in the jet. One told me to 'OUT NOW', he then got blew up by arty, i took off and he kicked me. Ar8e!

I dont go on there for getting in jets, only for infantry squad play. Also then dont have Game VOIP enabled. The TV2 servers are usually full of noobs and are good for playing lonewolf in a tank etc. Last time i played 50K, they only played 1 round per map, which is a downer as my system takes sooo long to load a new map. I'll try the SAS server.

Cheers,
Ant

How come you haven't joined any clans Gambo?
mogambo
I am in a one man clan [EBS] aka Enemy Boat Spotted!

I was in a CoD clan once, turned out to be a load of grown men behaving like children and bitching behind each others backs.

Not for me, i prefer lone wolfing.

Ahh, find myself in the wonderful magnificent situation of having the chance to make a reply to your rather beatiful posts.

Us humble clowns, we are the "w*nkers" you refer to, I would like to give you some friendly advice:

This is most likely a useless post to me and you MadAnt, since I had to give you these rules out pretty straight several times, but don't be ashamed, practice makes master, you will learn them eventually.

We follow our rules, set by us and obtained by us, even though I do admit removing some admin rights because of the recent abuse.

"They kick to get jets
They kick to get the attack helos

Seems you somewhere along the line made it to complain even more, lie even more, as we do not. I can honestly say here that you are talking bull*hit as usual, which you have been doing towards players on our server, and on our forums. You do need to learn that talking crap about us doesn't help.

We follow our rules, and the second I see a clanmember not doing it, I remove his or her admin rights.
EA, Dice, Multiplay.co.uk cannot complain about our rules, as we pay a s*hitload for the server, they can't and won't complain as long as we do not hack the system files for the server.

Our rules should not be neccesary to repeat, but I'll post the link just for your sake. Bamboo Commandos rules

Despite your whining and complaining, you still play at our server? Is this hipocracy? I don't understand why you talk crap about us in every forum you gain access to, and then still come back to play with us.
And of course we don't have the VoIP enabled, it lags even more than a radioprogram trying to filter your whining.

MadAnt, Mogamba, you should think before posting, or maybe this forum needs a "anti-whiner" filter.

Best regards, Butcher
mogambo
I'll deal with you later Mr Butcher as im off to bed. As ever the clown unable to post a message without lacing it with insults.

I suggest you keep your post secret from your clan mates till i provide you with evidence of the systematic adminstrative abuse on your server.

I will say you have quite the grapefruits, but hey anybody can act a bigman behind their steriod inflated keyboard.

DARK0NE: Keep an eye on this thread for me, BC clan like weally weally bad langauge....
MadAntUK
Butcher, you really, really don’t know your admins very well, because they HAVE kicked me twice within a couple of days for beating them to a jet or winning a 50/50 hold down the E key until the plane appears lottery. There is no BS about this.

You have never given me the rules of your server, or not what I've noticed. I have never seen a rule saying I can’t try and get in a jet because it has an admins name on it.

As i said, I stopped trying to get a jet/helo on BC server now because it will most likely lead to a kicking and life is too short for that. And no, I’ve not played on your server for a couple of weeks as am currently learning to fly, and along with the fight to get a jet, the TK'ing, punishing for standing in front of jets and base raping, i dont need being kicked by admins (admittedly, not all these happen on your server, but being kicked by admin for taking HIS jet ceryainly does).
I have only had a problem with a few of your members, and most are okay people whom I've text chatted with a few times. Shame the clan is let down by a couple of power crazed members really.

Okay, this may be complaining, but there are no lies or BS. You need to take another close look at some of your admins if you think they are all innocent.

Tell me if I wrong, but an admin using his admin power to kick a player becuase they want the jet does make the admin a wan*ker.

Butchy boy go here.....and prepare for a rude awakening

I think I might not be helping here, but I've also twice played on that Bamboo Commandos server and have experienced a couple of such events. I tend to avoid it now...

Good decision, they are a bunch of power crazed tossers.

The prosecution rests. Never been on a BC server but really feel like setting up some dud usernames and try my best to get right up their noses, but i shouldn't rise to this, as mogamo has demostrated there is a better way, and what a post mogambo, while it laid down the facts it made me sides hurt laugh.gif .

Out.

Well, the weirdest thing here is that you all keep coming back... And I do my very best trying to keep admins to follow rules, heck, I removed 3 peoples admin rights last week.

What is this forum anyway? A whiners quest to glory? You are mainly 2 people whining and complaining 24 hours a day about our server, and then you come back to us and play. I won't keep any of the material posted here a secret from my clanmembers, they deserve to know that their actions have consequenses.

What "facts" have Mogamba laid out? He lies as much as he talks crap. The first picture of your "power of whining" post only shows 2 members killing a couple of people... Their skill with a plane is just positive and is in no way any evidence for them abusing the rules.

If you had the brains enough to read our rules, you would know that attacking uncaps are only allowed with planes, but I guess you don't have the time to do that, you are to busy complaining and being a hipocrat.

2) A guy asking them to move? Anus kicking him to get the plane? A minor offense agains't the rules, and I've told him, but can you prove that he kicked him for that? Or is that just your magnificent intuition? For all you, or I, know, he could have been baseraping, badmouthing, hacking or whatever.

You have proved that they attacked the uncap base by plane, which is allowed, you have proved yourself a fool.

3) A guy did something that he might have done twenty times will Anus did it once. You have no evidence whatsoever! And a guy even suggest his ping, which our "anti-high-ping filter" would kick him for, as usual, you can't prove anything.

There is no specification of what they did, bring me some evidence of that.

5) Ramm has had his admin rights revoked before of this, unless you have some MS Paint skills this is true. First evidence, congratulations. But at what date did this occur?

6) Huellia is clan co-leader because she pays most of this server, and as far as I can see from your pictures, they are on your team... Is your point that they are destroying planes for fun? Oh no, what a horrible crime!

7) Btw, that title; Mr Butcher, sounds really good, thanks for that Mrs Mogambo. All I see from your beloved screenshots is MidgetMilitia telling a guy to get out of their main... Is there any point of this number 7 complaint? You didn't even, as usual, prove that BC baseraped.

Last) Telling a guy to get out and keep flying around in the air until he does, that isn't agains't the rules, but you never read them so you wouldn't know! You can't even prove if they kicked him.

Yeah, f*ck me, f*ck my clan. F*UCK YOU TOO! "cheats/padders/over zealous server admins".

The only point affecting our server is this:

"3 LOCAL (PRIVATELY RENTED) RANKED SERVER RULES MODIFICATIONS

These are rules that are not enforced upon in EA’s public ranked servers but may be modified in privately rented ranked servers. These rules are decided by clan administrators for those servers and as long as they do not contradict any global rules enforced by EA are considered valid for those servers.

This would include but not limited to:
§ Artillery fire or bombing runs on main (uncapturable) bases may be prohibited.
§ Prolonged or sustained attacks on main (uncapturable) bases (i.e. spawncamping).
§ Using the Transport Helicopters to take flags (Blackhawk whoring or flag hopping).
§ Impersonating clan members.
§ Using C4 on jeeps, or other fast moving vehicles to take out other vehicles.
§ Clans may change or customise rules, provided they don’t violate the above ROE rules."

We did modify it, read our rules. Everything about our server is legit, in all ways I can see. We are not "over zealous", we kick/ban people for reasons mentioned in our rules.

Even I could have modified a PNG man...

You have proved absolutely nothing, we are not abusing the server according to any of EAs rules. Your "domain", laugh.gif at that. I couldn't care if this was yours or George W Bushs domain! We do not expect to disband anytime soon... And you obviously have no idea what we require to get into our clan. You might be good at spamming your domain, but you clearly are unable to read others. And if my clanmembers prefer to play togheter, I don't give a damn.

Yeah, I am a tit, puh, good to get that out in the open. God what a horrible vocabulary you have, you should get some treatment for that.

Yeah, I delete old posts, especially hipocratic useless posts. W*nkers? Wonder where you kids learned such hard words. Hitlers? That is yet another huge laugh.gif .

You 2 are a couple of lifeless kids that need to get a hobby. I don't think I will come back to this cr*ppy "domain" of yours, makes you think your cool huh? Your "domain"? Get a life and stop whining, you are 2 out of most likely 2000, at minium, that play on our server.

Worst regards, Butcher
arch3r
you do make a good point Butcher aka Mr Butcher lol rolleyes.gif attacked the uncap base by plane i like that rule. i don't know why ppl post on this bf2 from gs has no bf2 server tongue.gif biggrin.gif laugh.gif
