Man, if only I had thought of that. A shame the reporting system does nothing to combat this.
Hey if you wanna argue that we should shame everyone for different playstyles, that’s up to you, I disagree, but hey. I just want to shame people with one specific playstyle, the infinite AAA circle strat that is designed to make your opponents leave to not waste their time.
I don’t, where’d you get this from? I’d actually prefer if Air RB was better acustomed for multiple roles, and de-emphasize fighters. Right now it’s just Fighter TDM, occassionally mixed in with AAA afk tactics.
Y’know, you’re not the first responder to randomly assume I want to delete non-fighters. Is AAA-AFK camping such a cornerstone strategy that you lot think that’s all bombers can do? (Or is that the only strategy you guys win with, lol).
Please share the replay. I saw and reported a lot of players with scripts, but i never saw a guy with a AFK- af aaa script. Without a replay - it never happened.
I am not sure what was unclear with my examples - there is no strawman involved. Time is relative, and if you think your time is more valuable than others - nobody cares. Even if your claim/example (afk aaa script) can be proven with a replay - i doubt that - your additional claim (50% of my matches) is far away from being realistic, so i see no further need to discuss your claims.
My feedback was aimed at your general approach with your post. It doesn’t matter if you use clear names or gamertags.
The attitude of pointing with fingers on others solely to expose them is frankly spoken somehow comprehensible if you would have lost a very good match due to camping, but declaring this as a thread to expose players in general like:
Is actually disturbing like hell. What do you do irl if somebody is not behaving like you want him to act? This is a rhetorical question.
He dont play tiers where AAA dont help so he dont ever see real airfield campers scoring 6+ kills by waiting and not fighting…then blames skill cause youve used your ammo fighting and your fuel flying while he hasnt done either … Your idea about shaming people like that is better than trying to shame the bot scripts hiding in AAA cover
I’ve played top tier matches where AA is thankfully useless, and I have never seen anyone actually loiter around airfields waiting for people to land or takeoff unless the enemy team has only 1 or 2 guys left.
And yes, i will blame someone’s skill if you expend all your ammo quickly into the match without actually having a impact. Try ammo conservation sometime. Maybe you’ll realize staying up for at least 10 mins into the match won’t lead you to having to land and possibly getting strafed.
What do you think I’m supposed to do in this situation?
I don’t think I can now since I didn’t press Save Replay at match end, but if there’s a way let me know.
Your examples had nothing to do with the prompt or discussion of the forum, and you used them to argue against me. That’s the definition of strawmanning.
Cop out. You and agree that pointless time-wasting is not good design and its not sportsmanlike.
If everyone leaves when noticing this behavior, it ain’t just me. I was the last to leave on my team in the particular game I’m referencing. Seriously, even if you watch YT videos you’ll find content creators talking about it. Especially in the Ju 288 range.
I’ll answer it anyway. If someone is behaving in a dispicable manner, sufficient to warrant internvetion, if I can I’ll confront them directly. Otherwise, I can denounce them to individuals that can do something.
It’s literally how society operates man. Next you’re gonna tell me I’m not allowed to denounce muggers to the police, cause it’s creepy.
If you want actual respect about brag post yes cause my 9 year old son can kill landing aircraft…its not hard to outlast and kill people who have landed +6 kill game earned by dogfighting is much respect killing 6+ guys on the airfield is just another monday…
Just use links (to the server replay site) one of my 2 links i provided, close the match and search for own replays. You will find all replays of you in the last 10-14 days; if the match was that important you remember the map quite easy, it is an additional search parameter. Just post the link, not the replay file.
Imho you should not blame the player for taking the opportunity to kill 4 guys near or on a forward airfield without af aaa cover.
Landing on a forward airfield is a classic noob mistake - the af aaa cover there was removed some months ago. Landing there is suicide, so those 4 paid the price for being too lazy to fly 60 seconds more to do their stuff on the main airfield.
So imho it is poor decision making of those 4 guys to present themselves as free kills. I agree that those kills de-validate any kills on more fair terms, but wt is a shooter - with all consequences.
Yea poor choices sure would you brag about it as if your awesome??? No probably not so who cares like I said thats just another monday poor players usually die in the sky too
But I’ve only ever done so to buy time so I could refuel, rearm, repair, and climb to a better altitude to not get immediately killed, and then rengage.
I never had the strategy of circling AAA forever to get people to leave the game.
Personally, I think the spawn AAA is too much, and should be removed or diminished, but that’s not what’s being discussed. I’m not against people using intended game mechanics to try to win, such as using the AAA to gain altitude safely. I’m against players exploiting broken systems, to waste everyone’s time, until its simply better to leave than to finish the match. If you don’t see an issue with infinite AAA circling as a viable strategy, then I hope you’re never in charge of designing games.
Since you just found out about the server replay system in this thread, it’s safe to say you never tried it before declaring it doesn’t work.
Yes, if you are ahead on points and you’re one bomber against three fighters, the only way you’re winning that game is to run out the clock and avoid dying. Maybe you should shame your teammates for not going high and cleaning up the bombers early so you didn’t face this problem. Me, I play to win.
