hey "planewhore"
ive heard u hating on everybody that plays IO and i hear u calling IO mode easy mode all over bf2s.com. I pretty much agree, you die less -- I have also always considered USING VEHICLES to be playing in easy mode, though.
If you are in a jet, only a small fraction of people on the map even have a weapon they could potentially kill you with, regardless of their skill. I wont even mention how much more effective vehicle weapons are than infantry weapons because everybody here knows it. basically in a vehicle its harder to die, and easier to get kills.
So congratulations on being the all-time master of a BF2 easy mode (are you the all time master? Could 60|Cobalt cruise by and prawn you any time?).
and dont get me wrong. ur a great player and i respect that, but its just irionic to hear you trolling all the threads here talking about unfair advantages in IO mode, when you have been "whoring" the advatages of vehicles for most of your time in BF2. At least people that are playing in IO mode are getting kills against people with equal opportunity to kill them. No matter how much skill you may employ in your kills, you must admit that the vast majority of people you kill are utterly defenseless against your vehicle skill or not. Thats just how BF2 was made.
But then I bet you are fully aware of this irony and actually have quite an inferiority complex about all those thousands of people that can utterly shut you down in infantry combat. Your K to D on this second account, no less, for assault rifles says you are good but nowhere near one of the best as infantry. I guess this leads you to flaming everybody on bf2s.com about IO because you know that many people can now rival planewhores in the leaderboards by playing in IO servers and this makes you jealous.
I wouldn't noramlly be so harsh, I don't even mind "vehicle whores" but you have just really been begging for someone to tell you to STFU and leave people to do what they think is fun. Remember that this is a game -- not your sole source of self worth or status in the world.
I'm sorry it's so difficult for you to believe the reason the *majority* of people play IO mode is the same reason they play K&P and the same reason they sit on a near empty server and kill/revive each other over and over again - points. If points didn't matter people would've been playing LEGAL 24/7 IO Karkand on an unranked server with all of the unlocks enabled long before the 1.4 patch. If people really wanted IO they would've been playing the 1.4 patch beta and having fun in finished IO mode but because it was unranked NOBODY was playing it. Don't need to be Sherlock to follow the logic trail on that little tidbit Marine.
I've always agreed aircraft and tanks are powerful but oddly enough even though I'm one of the top vehicle whores in BF2 and it is where most of game experience is I still can't score as consitantly high in a tank/plane as I can playing a simple medic. I can't remember the last time I had a 150 point round in armor but I get them all the time when I'm playing my medic (on a NON-IO server). Doing well in aircraft and armor takes skill and all the proof you need of that is to go down to the "What is your weakness" thread in the BF2s BF2 forums and notice that the number one weakness for most people is piloting aircraft.
The only reason I'm bringing this up in this thread is the title of this thread is "Way too amazing stats? Hax0r stats? Post them here!". Of course this prompts many to flaunt their own statistics from IO mode which I find to be highly pathetic. Nothing way too amazing about a player sitting in a mode I personally can get 9SPM and 150 points a round by doing nothing more than tossing grenades or spamming those shock paddles. Do that in regular BF2 mode and then maybe I'll consider your statistics to be "Way too amazing" otherwise STFU and go back to carebear/statpadding land. Again I invite all these IO chumps to join me on my server 24/7 StrafeRight Karkand/Jalalabad/Sharqi if they want to see what real skilled players look like.
