So you were flying a jet, gunning at a tank, got blinded and pulled up... into a ground vehicle on the ground?  Serves you right flying upside down.

get used to it.  Hell, I place Claymore mines and I tell those clumsy idiots ahead of time that I placed it there but they still walk over it.  I dont even know why there is a red skull and bones because I still end up blowing off the leg of my teamates.  One time I layed out 20 claymores, I lay two at a time and back to the supply box.  I have never been kicked off a server so fast.

I agree. Flashbangs need to be for SF only. Flash-n00b or n00b-bangers will come a very common expression.

n00b-bangers! lol. that sounds like the bf2ssf equivalent of fag-hags or something. if you're the first person to express it this way: congratulate yourself, as i'm sure its about to become a part of the offical jargon

As much as I hate pilots, that picture just made me laugh

If realism is what we're aiming for here, then how about giving the ground pounders some laser light pens that we can flash into the pilots eyes.  Would be similar to a FB

But then the noobs wouldn't be able to do it!

Oh yeah


On the matter of those Claymore-hugging fools, instead of just having that symbol, have a really really annoying high pitched beeping (like the one when you get a lock in an AA station/vehicle) - and if they walk on it still - Keep that noise going for them until the end of the round!

That picture made me laugh :p   and that stunts movie made me cry

and why hate pilots? because you get beaten down by aircraft often? live with it, and learn to combat them instead of being stupid about it.

Black Sheep, i also tend to punish pilots more than I do other guys. Pilots seem to think they have a right to bomb any and everything they see. They don't ever seem to check the minimap to see whats actually happening on the ground. They don't care that you've just loaded the enemy APC up with C4 and are going to send their infidel hides to hell.

They swoop in, grab 5 kills and one TK and move on happy as can be, spamming "Sorry!" messages.

Some of us would also like to be able to get some kills, thank you very much. Especially as it's harder to do it from our side.

While I have also seen some seriously good CAS work, it does seem to me that most pilots believe they are entitled to kill whatever they want. You included.

Dobbs : I think it is a FF server off, with multiple people planting C4 and detonating it in sequence.

I know what you mean, was playing the other day and flying around in the F-15 and saw a flag go neutral so did a low fly-by to see what was there.  There was 2 APC's and 2 T-90. no friendlies on the map at all so climbed to 500 then came straight down, dropped all 5 bombs and took out all the enemy vehicles and some how 3 teamates.

2 of which punished. 


#1 not my fault they didn't show up on the map.

#2 no my fault that they would have been standing directly on the tanks, as all the bombs actually hit the armour.

I don't punish automatically, I look up to make sure it's a pilot first

I have my reasons for disliking that vehicle.  I feel it's overpowered and contributes to anti-teamwork.  In that way I feel it's against the nature of the game.  Maybe I'm wrong and so be it, but I'm entitled to irrationally despise something just the same as you are.

I also love the word "punish" is the sin of all sins to people.  Is -4 really the end of the world like that?  I know stats mean a lot to people, so I'm considerate enough that if I walk into a mine or run in the middle of the road in front of somebody, I hit forgive and move on.

Here's my philosophy: By TKing me, accident or not, I now have to stare at the sky for 15 seconds, pick another spawn point, start running back to whereever I was going with probably a greater chance of encountering resistance trying to get there.  A -4 for that is a fair trade.  Move on.  Get over it.  If you do care about the almighty 4 points that much then maybe you will be more careful next time.

And to answer your final question, No, generally I'm not owned by aircraft.  Probably somewhere in the range of 50 is the total deaths by air that I have.  I consider it a separate game that sometimes intrudes upon my game.

And finally, I'm far from an idiot, but I do enjoy playing devil's advocate and a good argument once in a while

Without air support where would you be? your pilots help more than you realize, and you might not appreciate what you have somtimes. I, for one, try as hard as i can not to tk, but you honestly dont know how hard it is  when someone calls out enemy tank spotted, then runs up to it expecting you to bomb it, and punishes you, thinking youre just another hater. its a stupid idea to punish pilots automatically.....assess the situation, like if youre alone and no enemies on uav in your area or anything, yea punish. but dont be sitting there ready to press page down to not forgive, because accidents do happen and will always happen, and some servers thankfully kick constant tk punishers. and i know the feeling of flying over, seeing all enemies, checking minimap, and bombing and getting several tks...... and several punishes......

some will learn when their pilots give up after being punished, and then enemy air takes over and kills you, then you whine, and your former pilots just laugh at your demise

thats my rant about pilots and pilot error...

Its not so much the -4, but when you're playing a class such as sniper or assault, you can't make that up.  That's not so bad, but a lot of servers kick after a certain negative score.  Punishing just gets you there faster - it's not just 4 points, it could cost someone their entire round.

There certainly are a number of times where people automatically punish for something that, if they took 2 seconds to think about what just happened, they just MIGHT realize it was either their fault, or, *gasp* a true accident.  I was pilot in an attack chopper, ended up being shot down by a jet. The debris landed on a teammate and killed him. He punished. Go figure...

You have been punished for a teamkill!

Hey at least I can report one good flashbang experience.Friend of mine was in a server that had one of those vision hacking plane whores (you know the kind that come from out of the fog flying low to the ground firing machinegun at foot soldiers they have no legitimate way of seeing [and i'm not talking about the ones in predictable spots like stingers]) when he flew into the radius of an exploding flashbang.He panics, and pulls up, flying his plane blindly into a team blackhawk full of people. Boom. You could practically hear the clacks of the keyboards of half a dozen newbs spamming their punish keys, and it's bye bye for mr hotshot hacker.
HAHA any relationship?

well its not uncommon for me to gun down infantry, you see the dots on the uav, and the minimap has good graphics, like shadows and light/dark spots easily identifiable by a good gamer so he knows within several feet of where to shoot, and if you get it just right you can gun down infantry pretty good cuz the plane rounds explode on contact with the ground... anyways, its pretty easy to shoot people off the ground if you just spray fire in the area, its a freakin lot of bullets shooting out of a cannon like the ones on jets....

but yeah, i do experience people fly at me, or pull up into me at the runway, and even reverse situations where i accidently fly into someone else.....but even if i tk just one single time because EA makes bad missile tracking systems or someone leaves their vehicle and the engine is hot, making my ground radar pick it up as a non-friendly target and i bomb it....people will usually punish, and for the post i saw before (if i remember it right - too lazy to quote ) "the pilots tk and fly off spamming sorry messages" - how do you expect someone to type out a lengthy formal apology in midflight? its kinda hard to do you know.

overall there seems to be a lot of disrespect to those who can fly from those who cant fly...
