For one i like the new patch from a pilots point of view, it actually takes skill now to raid the essex without being hit by AAA or being blown up by it. The point im trying to make is youd think people that are less experienced at flying would be discouraged from piloting jets since 1.2 came out, but some people never learn. Take this guy that I ran into last night while i was playing, we where playing gulf of oman on the mec side and like usual I finished loading first so I got to choose which plane I wanted.
So I took the Mig and climbed to about 400 alt and did circles till everybody got finished loading, I could not remember the individuals name but I do remember he was a corporal. The funniest thing was he tked someone for the SU-34, then of course the kick votes start poping up. So I trailed this guy from about 400 alt and like a true novice heads straight for the essex on a nice straight level flight, not surprisingly he gets blown up straight away without him even firing a shot.
Youd think anybody in there right mind would learn from their first mistake and change their game plan or something, but as I saw on the message board on the top left of the screen this kid kept getting killed by the essex over and over as the game wore on and the sad part was I think he kept tking for the SU-34 also. I checked his score and his k/d was like 5/22 at a score of -36.
I couldnt help it but laugh at this guys attempts to raid the carrier and fail over and over again, good thing we won though or else I wouldnt really found it that funny. Will ill give him credit he attracted those F-35s like no ones business, then little old me drop down from cloud cover and blew up the trailing F-35s that was on his six the enemy fighters never saw me coming, I got about 20 air to air kills this way. I think that makes me an ACE just kidding of course.
