BF2S Forums When your told to get out, get the **** out...

Most of the posts since my last post are from people who have absolutely no respect for the opinions and thoughts of others.  They are also the same ones who will find themselves repeatedly kicked and banned from servers by admins who want everyone to have fun regardless of winning or losing or points. 

Everyone who plays BF2 hates losing.  If you don't your strange in my book, buts a different thread.  Yes I hate losing, but showing a little respect towards your fellow players regardless of the skill level of yourself and them is much more important than getting a damned medal at the end of the round for your "high" score.

95% of the time I fly a chopper it is with a Clan Mate.  If I don't have one playing with me in what ever server I'm in or we are on different teams I will wait for a "public" gunner.  If we get shot down and both wait the chopper to respawn, I will be more than happy to let him fly if he wants. 

I am by no means the best gunner or pilot or anything else in this game.  I certainly don't care that I am.  I play to have fun with my friends, and hopefully make some new ones. 

I hate teamkills and have to many as it is.  Some are on purpose for people being asshats to me.  Most are accidental.  Of the accidental ones, some I have deserved to be punished for, others I should have been forgiven for beacause of the person's lack of judgement. 

If your one of those who goes around TKing people for a vehicle then you need to grow up and get a life.  Life is about give and take.  BF2 is for you and everyone else who plays it to have fun.  Yeah, the medals and ribbons and badges are cool.  I want them all, but I want to have fun first.  If that means flying a chopper for someone who doesn't know how to use the TV missle fine.  I will ask when I realize he might not know there is one.  If he does, I will tell him to kill the armor and other vehicles with it first then worry about the grunts on the ground.  Sure the grunts on the ground die faster by the gun, but to kill them you have to kill the biggest threat to you and your pilot. 

If my gunner misses with the TV missle.  Fine. I will either use rockets or manuever away and come back to give him another and hopefully better shot.  All to often I have not given my gunner the best shot on a target and he misses.  When I know I screwed up in that respect I apologize and try to give him a better shot. 

I have had other pilots do the same for me.  I generally say no prolbem or thanks.  Sometimes I don't say anything because I'm concentrating on killing everything I can.

Jinto, the way to get better at flying is to just keep working at it.  I've gotten to the point I can almost fly a SF chopper the way I want someone to fly it for me.  I generally practice in an empty server.  If I get shot down repeatedly, I ask everyone there for some help.  Most people are willing to help you get better by giving you their tips. 

Here's one I found works for me for Reg BF2 Choppers.  I use the throttle on my joystick to set the power where I can hover when it's level.  The chopper doesn't gain or lose altitude that way.  As I fly with the mouse and keyboard normally, that setting on my joystick allows me help my gunner get a better shot when I remove my fingers from the W and S keys.  I can still turn and do whatever, but that hover setting helps me.
