The aircraft have had it ease. Being able to get 30+ kills in around with out dying. The game was unbalanced.
Now the game is more balanced. There will be a period of adjustment required for those that have had it easy. I personally welcome the change and challenge that this patch has brought.

I'll look forward to seeing you in the skies...

Polar seriously bro? what are you even bring up, fine your not whining. You just stated you got out of a game with 26 kils and 2 deaths? So what's the problem that doesn't sound like it's over powering at all.

The people who are having the most problems with the AA being too powerful are coming back on after 1 or 2 pages and saying oh I just got this score 26-0/ 26-2 and I still rock. But they're the ones who are saying it's too powerful? Like what the hell man, just because you can't rack up your 50 kills/0 deaths, your crying about nothing man 16 pages of wasted retarded blabber

all I can hope is that you "skilled pilots" keep your stats going the same way and don't read my previous posts. Well let me say it again, with airplanes you have an k/d ratio of 8-14 now if I'm EA and I look at that in the future even with the improved AA, there going to make AA even better to lvl out the playing field.

Now if all you I'm so amazing pilots really think about it stats don't lie. EA records them so they know what to correct to lvl the playing field, hench the Noob tube is not going to have as much slash damage cause most people who use it have a 50%+ hit ratio. So while you all go out there and prove to us ground pounders that your the best pilots in the world. EA will see all pilots have amazing stats and make AA Tougher.

Just a thought I could be wrong tho

That can almost certainly be attributed to a pair of players (one in the top 10 list) who, on wake island, sit over the arty island and pound the aircraft carrier with tv missiles, hitting anything they wanted, and spawnkilling anyone who started on the island and went for the AA.  They came out of one game with 103 KILLS.  not points, kills.  they had a crate at the island, and noone could even get off the carrier.  And they used the range of the tv missile to do it.

I remember someone by the name of [OT]Porno I think doing this on dalian plant... He wouldn't even let people ride with him in the chopper so he could go be homosexual. I am happy to say I spent the round C4ing and Tking him at any chance. But yea, that technique sucked, there was NO way to get around it.

The range of the new TV missles is fine. Lets you destory land vehicles etc perfectly. The thing people hate now is that they have to engage in combat, not just sit far away and take out anything they please. I love how people don't like that they have lost this advantage with the TV's... Stop being pussies, get up close and personal and hope you have me as your pilot to get you out alive.

I think the theme of the new patch is "If you can shoot them, they can shoot you".

Tell me...how the hell are you supposed to dodge that?  The guy in the video was taking evasive maneuvers AND shot his flares out.  As he so eloquently stated in the movie: WTF?!

I still get a real high KDR in a jet ,just not as good as I used to. I took gold in 3 matches today in a jet ,but A decent pilot could have ended this I suppose. I had no problems taking out the other jets with the heat seekers ,which are noobish anyway .I liked the DC method better. Radar on the fighter jets ,and you used the machine guns or lead your targets for the straight shooting missiles. The ground pounders had  a tried and true method for base rapers it was called the stinger.  The choppers are way too weak against the .50 cal. and the lack of being able to flip c-4 over on a tank has me really pissed.  Many time I ran up to a tank today to place C-4 only for him to spin his turret looking for a target and crush me into wall or back up over me! F!@$ that!


      If you are a noob pilot you will crah and burn quickly ,and if your good you can adjust ,but if the other team owns all the flags and they man every aa turret you are doomed. When they figure that out the jets will stay parked. The patch has some good and bad in it. The whiners won this round.

I like how the same people who complain, probably still have a shitload more hours per day than me

I like the game, sure it has its minor faults, but I ain't gonna bitch like crazy cause something ain't going my way. If I hate the game that much then I stop playing (For Example, Day of Defeat, it just doesn't have much else to do then shoot, duck, shoot, die, shoot, duck, shoot, die)

I love how the low rank noobs bitch about chopper whoring in the beginning, and now still will find some half-ass excuse to bitch about the new patch. Ex. "But they made the armour [APC] stronger by taking out all the dolphin diving to get away from it........and I'm such a noob, I can't handle it....wahh."

Well noobs: FUCK YOU. Play 300+ hrs, and then get an opinion. Until then, stay on my [Shitty] list: my fave victims list. <--A mere 25 and counting, bitches.

.... HOW THE HELL CAN YOU EVEN CALL THAT EVASIVE MANEUVERS?.. All he did was he did a slow loop and dropped some flares... its obvious he got hit... and secondly.. he was turning INTO the AA missles arc.. so it had a shorter travel time....

addendum

who the hell climbs to get rid of missles?... they have made it so that you slow down when climbing...

Erm. Ok you complain about n00b-t00bing, i join in the conversation. But its not a problem to me, because I hardly play karkand. Yet its a legit, in-game problem. So we discuss.

Same here for AA. It affects me, yes, but not greatly. So we discuss.

Finally, someone with a brain.

1.12 had crappy AA's, that's a fact. I gaurantee you won't shoot me down with an AA of any sort in 1.12. Now, I can still dodge the AA's, although I do admit the ESSEX is a tad bit unfair. They should have decreased the fire rate on the SAM so that it was atleast close to fair. It's nearly impossible to live after flying near the ESSEX unless you climb before he shoots all the missles out.


Here's a good tip. If you want to clear out an AA, fly straight towards it and as soon as you get in range deploy your flairs, then he can't hit you.

And you would know so much with 28 kills in a jet?

Greatest BULLSHIT i've heard. 103 kills not a single SANE soul to spawn on the island with AT or Support to make them screw off?

Basically USMC just bend over for the assfuck did they?  Jesus. At LEAST make your story more convicing. Sure its irritating in stuff like Sharqi, esp when i can spawn kill from the TV Station. But wake over the US arty island?
