  3. For those of you standing on the edge of the multiplayer cliff.. Myth: Everyone in HL is a shark with uber-skillz. Fact: many people are no different than you- just starting off. Myth: I have to get good with AI before getting online. Fact: hmm no, not really. In fact getting good against AI is probably detrimental because they both suck & cheat in so many ways- I don't know where to begin. You could say "I need to learn to take off and land, have a basic knowledge of systems & weapons, IFF, and be willing to read and follow the rules of the server." Yep. That'll do. Myth: I will get picked on when I get killed. Fact:... ummmm -No. If you are a good sport you will virtually never get picked on. If some a-### did that to a noob or anyone else in our server unprovoked- he'd be toast. It's not only rare- it's not tolerated. Sorry- the one most likely to laugh at you is probably in the room with you watching. Myth: It's all airquake. Fact: Sorry but this is Barbra Streisand. It's what you make of it. If you enter a server that has 1 or 2 guys flying A2G and you figure you're gonna fantasize about your mad-skillz by shooting them down over & over from 15 miles away- than you are the problem. Obviously- the 2 ground pounders choices are: a- changing planes and coming back to slap you silly. (count S77th in for that) b. have to go to a different server. There are also dedicated air to ground servers and individual dedicated air to ground missions present all the time. Cut the excuses. This one in particular is getting stale. (True story! A pilot wanting to pick on ground pounders and then whined on a forum about Airquake after we switched and shellaqued him!) Myth: All the servers are on ACE settings. Fact : This is mostly true, not a myth. :D Call it "toughlove" ladies & gents. It is not our goal to meet the needs of the lowest common denominator. If you really want to get better- this is the way it must be- regardless of your current level of skill. However- there are some occasions where the settings are relaxed to help the truly green among us to just TRY it. You can start your own server and set it as you wish. I have a seen a few doing just that lately. meh... gotta get ready for work.. outta time..

  4. i have not seen any of the polish f16s with the conformal fuel tanks. but i heard they were ordered, so will poland receive them? will be interesting to see how they look and the effect on the f16s performance. i heard the polish f16s will be equipped witht he joint helmet mounted cueing system. is this basically the same as the mig29/su27's schlemm? some more info on the weapons systems of the f16s: 22 of the f16s will be equipped with LM AN/AAQ-33 Pantera targeting pod 20 will be equipped with a built-in electronic warfare system (AN/ALQ-212) a large number of missiles and bombs have been purchased, including amraam c-5's and aim9x supersidewinders (now for the first time polish pilots will experience the 'tone'!) for a2a, as well as mavericks, JSOW JDAM and laser-guided bombs.. it looks like the f16s will be a definite leap forward compared to the current equipment! (though i still like the old migs and suki).

  5. Um, an attack against an unsuspecting target? The *perfect* engagement is the one where the target doesn't get any warning until the AMRAAM lights him up in the end-game. I'm not saying 20 nm maddags are realistic, or not. All I'm saying is that not being able to lock up anything with the APG-63 is a much bigger problem. What is there to do? ED currently has their hands tied - I'll bug them later, be sure. The F-15C's. It's a late 90s weapons platform fighting against early 80s tech, for crying out loud. Make no mistake, the Russian stuff will still have an affect on the Eagle's game, but the F-15C should still be able to fight BVR like it's supposed to. Being relegated to 6 nm for a radar lock is ridiculous. Currently, BVR in LOMAC is a joke in terms of realism - I'll rank it just above Jane's USAF and Strike Fighters. Just accepting this "as is" is a mistake - we need to at least recognize the faults so that ED can improve on them.

  6. And using a macro that cycles it on and off so fast it doesnt even show the strobe on the radar? Im sorry, but it is not a tactic that can be used IRL. It is an exploit, and everyone know that. Like I said in the 504, you might as well defend LOPE.

  7. Completely agree.:thumbup: ECM blinking is not cheating but rather utilizing the already available option in LOMAC but much more efficiently.
