Welcome to BF2. Enjoy your stay.
Avoid insomnia, TV2, internode and a few other big servers if you dont want that kind of shit. Also, avoid wake servers too. And, like turtle said, 24/7 servers can also be bad for it.
Although....in clanned servers, they may kick you if you steal the admins jet....
What a way to start eh!!
Vanilla comprises of faggots tking for jets and choppers - and if they dont get them, they either tk you out of it with the M95 (a sniper that shoots through cockpit glass) and give you a forced tk - too many of those and you get booted out the server. Thats why I 95% of the time use the tanks/APC's/AA on vanilla since you can get one with no worries. A bigger bonus with AA since you get to blow those tking fucktards out the sky.
Special Forces (expansion pack) has next to zero tking for vehicles - its another world apart. But, it doesnt have jets...and thats an amazing aviator ratio you got. I cant fly jets for shit
One other thing.....you are a very low rank, PFC. A lot of pilots for both jets and choppers refuse to allow anyone below the rank of First Sgt or SgtMjr, sometimes higher, because a lot of low ranks really dont have a clue about the game - i.e. shooting the cannon at tanks and not even knowing they have a TV missile.
I commend you for using SP to get to grips with TV's, jets etc (seriously, well done!) - but other players wont realise that you know this, and you have to note that low ranks usually dont know what they are doing in the game or on any of the maps. Not all of them, but a lot of them.
Its hard to explain to a new player, but in time, especially as a chopper pilot with a worthless gunner, you will see what I mean.
Anyway, welcome to BF2s...have +1 karma
You know, everyone says this shit but I think I've been M95'd out of a chopper/jet maybe twice in my life....5 times would be pushing it, and thats with ~80 hours combined between the 2.
I've been redzoned exactly twice, I remember both occasions.
