    I will open the room TA

    If the room still exists, you can enter via "join private room" TA

    NeLge was there for a short time, maybe he does not like so many noobs.
    I will reopen TA FFA room if it's closed again from time to time.....

    Question:
    What else is there to do other than a h2h or stalking in ffa? It's getting a little monotonous entering a circle of death at times and especially when there's only one other player who hasn't bailed out of the room it's not quite as challenging.

    I have noticed that whoever flies the higher altitude usually wins the h2h shoot out--I can only imagine it's because of the angle each player has to hold the console...

    And also, I'm noticing at close range I can fire at nothing while in the circle of death and still get a kill... is this a bug of some sort or just barely getting the tail section?

    Things have gotten kind of bad with the servers not updating the game names. It's very hard these days to find each other in games. Room names just dissapear after a while, which means after the room initially fills up no one else can join because it's no longer visable. Also SoG is pretty high up in the app store now, which accounts for a massive wave of new players in p-40's. SGN has no plans to change the game list situation BTW. As far as you still being #14 there was a huge point gap there that took me months to clear. Oh and Sola got a new phone not to long ago and is about to be in the top 10 twice! That's mostly what you missed I think:)

    It will either just be "ta" or "TA". One is for TP the other is for FFA. I can't remember which is which now, even though I'm the one who suggested one be for FFA and the other for TP :)

    I can't play any map but ocean, works just about when under 3 players, still badly. I want version 1 back.
    gg haib... or whatever it is and SAB empreb, it's a pain flying against good players in those rooms but I put up with it for a bit as I can't find anything but p40's elsewhere

    'TA' ROOM IS OPEN! (OCEAN) WHERE DID YOU GO HAIB....2?

    All of us want version 1 back! I just feel lucky I don't have the control issue bug. I feel badly for you and all those that do....really bad. Oh and it's Habicht 1, not to be confused with Hibatchi! Dang it, I want Hibatchi steak again tonight now!!!! I wish I could join you guys, I'm stuck behind a firewall that's more secure than Fort Knox ever was!

    That is what we call the Furball my friend:) There is a statigy that is fairly common knowlege at this point. I also realize you are probably still adjusting to not using rockets. Pick a point where you think you can break away and then puch the throttle and fly out, at the end of the speed burst quicky turn and reengage the furball. Yes you are just getting the tail end of the other plane, or the nose section depending. Keep in mind also, you are spewing a stream of bullets everywhere as you fly in a loop like that and the other guy can run into them.

    when timing a furball properly, I find I can get 2 or 3 kills right in row. that's a challenge to do, but fun.

    A will be chasing B who is chasing C etc..etc.. they all hurt themselves and then I sweep in and get them all.

    I wish this game had video b/c I did a "A after B after C after D after E" and got them all. The entire screen that moment was:
    keebler killed x
    keebler killed x
    keebler killed x
    keebler killed x
    keebler killed x

    and it had to roll after the first 3.

    The other pilots were all WOW'g and to this day, I haven't been able to repeat it b/c all those kills happened with in 1 H2h as I caught them chasing each other. They were coming East to West and I was going West to East.

    So try and do that. Fun to do.

    The other thing I call is 'glancing shots'. If you're going to h2h with someone, fire a bunch of rounds and then leave them to go after someone else. Most times if they are smoking or in a P40, they'll die and you'll be onto someone else.

    ok..no more tactics from TNA SkyNinJa for tonight ;)

    hope that helps though.

    Cheers

    That's awesome! I do love those types of frags, that'll cheer you up after having a bad day. I will have to develop a bag of tricks. And it is getting tough to climb the ladder though... Think I am in the upper 120s ranking and flux back and forward all the time.

    Although -- one bit of exciting news... Don't know if anyone has mentioned this but, I have my iPhone hooked up to my car stereo which makes for beautiful surround sound! :)
    You can hear all the intricate details of the game. And I swear I could hear someone yelling in the distance as I shot them down.

    Could be overzealousness though?

    Who is Vanessa?

    I played her( or is it a he?) today. Man, like every good Zero I have played she is imposible to hit and gets behind your tail before you know it. It seemed thougt once I killed her she left the game. Sore I messed up kill to death ratio? I do not know but I want to play her ( or him) again...

    I too noticed Vanessa gets alittle upset when she gets got. She stalked me a couple times but when I challenged her directly she left after I began fragging back to back.

    I don't think she likes h2h...

    I love H2H! ;) Nice to have run into you in that TP room. I wanted to quit and rejoin, but I knew I would never find that quick player game again. As it was we couldn't shoot at each other and there were only four players which only gave each of us one player to shoot at... so that's why I ended up leaving. Shame we couldn't have made it an excellent team player game. It used to be you could find the games again once you left them. :(

    Say, sorry about gunning for you. I just knew I had to or all the noobs on my team would die. I was surprised when you did not do a head to head with me when I had killed you twice on purpose. Anyway we could make a game called 'skilled' and be a two man team in a FFA.:D
