    erm.
    He's good sure. But ropey, he aint that good. With the exception of bombing, I can fly just as well as that. I just don't really enjoy flying planes, because you get Tk'ed so much when ya try to get in a plane. and there are idiots who will stand on front of you just so you either run over them(and obviously they punish) or you get out of the plane.

    I'd like to see him try that up against some really excellent pilots...
    Still amazing stuff though...

    was on a 64 man server playig Dalian Plant earlier today - one where USMC start on warship only.
    We had n00b pilots and they did jack all... and China guys were freaken amazing helo and jet pilots.
    Not one boat or BH made it to land, and constant arty wiped us out.
    I managed to get a boat unseen to the mainland, but we only had 60 tickets Vs nearly their full count.
    A beatings of beatings... just shows how crucial good pilots are and how effective they can be.

    Bit too much base raping for my liking. Sure he's a good pilot but I've seen guys go through rounds flying without being shot down. I might have even done it myself once at some stage.


  • Registered Users Posts: 529 ✭✭✭Ebonyks


    :confused: The guy was never shot down, hardly took any damage. Also, that wasn't base raping, looked pretty strategic to me.

    How is that fun ? Its like playing against the CPU on easy he sticks to 2 areas and just flies around and around, theres not much possibility of being hit. Kinda defeats the idea of playing online for a better challenge the cpu if thats all you do.

    You should be allowed shoot people like that in the back as they q for planes.

    He was going in an destroying planes/people/vehicles before they even had a chance to get out of the base. Thats base raping to me.

    Other pilots where sh*t....he gets behind one...gets lock on....no flares or anything....he has to slow up to hit them!!! sorry but seen alot better people on random servers than this guy!! he is ok but nothing special....

    Ah come on now, I'm a bag of sticks compared to Pavan.;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 273 ✭✭RapierX


    i think his bombing is very accurate and has a nice method of doing it, his use of cannon is alright. follows a very obvious pattern and hadnt much competition with the other pilots


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 50 ✭✭Agent47


    bombing was good, nothing spectacular about the flying and tbh the ppl he was shooting didnt do much to stop him i mean he locked onto several ppl and they did jack, no flares or nothing, had he hav had any competition it may hav been different.

    Still good overall


  • Registered Users Posts: 434 ✭✭Ruffty^


    Well impressed, he dominated the map, obviously the competition was a bit tame, but mayb it was cause they couldn`t get off the ground !


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,997 ✭✭✭jaggeh


    meh
    ive shot down better

    From his POV he did, I dunno about overall.


  • Registered Users Posts: 614 ✭✭✭dent


    Seems to be a lot of unimpressed people posting. How bout you lads use FRAPs to record your flying escapades and we shall critique them?

    Personnally I though he was quite good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,997 ✭✭✭jaggeh


    honestly though he had no opposition, and you are only seeing his viewpoint.
    every now and again he shoots down a bomber with a noob pilot and he does strafing runs on the runway........

    apart from his above average skills at avoiding missile fire (ill give him that) there is nothing in that video that says he is an outstanding pilot.

    And if i got more than 20fps with fraps on i would record it but until then i think not as turning fraps on means my game is gonna suck ass and anything im trying to prove wont get proven.

    If you want to fly against me add me on xfire and join my server. i know how to use the planes, i dont ram people unless its an accident and i dont return to base unless ive expended all my ammo.

    I'm sure your a great BF2 pilot thats why I'd like to see some video clips. Sucks that you can't make them :(

    We could all learn from them.

    I just picked up how to bomb a bit better form the provided clip. Although sitting in the rear cockpit might also provide that.
