Did you add that guy falcor that was kicking our ass. He jumped outa plane and killed me while parachuting as rifleman in midair. Than I was using AA and he went straight up in air as far as he could go where I couldnt hit him and did a nosedive right down onto me, we took each other out. Dude has skillz

I added falcor to my friends list and he accepted so yeah I added him so whenever we have a clan battle or something maybe I can send him an invite to see if he will join or maybe we can test him out to see if he wants to join a clan

I have been working on my flying skills and have gotten 500% better. In total I worked on my flying for about 5 or 6 hours yesterday and the improvement is drastic. My best games all in plane so far are 11/3 7/1 7/2, way better than the negative games I used to have. By no means am I a ace pilot yet but hopefully with some more work I can patrol the skies with optimus or whoever else for us in CB's.

Yeah, still alot of practice to get where I need to be though. I do really good on Iwo Jima but have been having problems taking out tanks on the other maps with all of the buildings and shit in the way its hard to get a bead on where they are at.

I need some help figuring out how to MG ground targets. Slowing down too much is risky but so is flying fast and low .... and it's hard as hell to hit someone with the MG when you're flying fast and close to the ground. I never got a handle on how to stay up when firing heli missiles in BC either, so I would like to hear how anyone's gotten the MG working for them...

I have gotten really good at taking out ground troops with the MG and what works best for me is to come in high and angled down to take them out. Obviously you still dont want to fly to fast because at that angle you will hit the ground. Try to go slow enough that you can get a good aim at them but dont let off the throttle completly, try to stay at a medium pace. Anyway, thats what works for me... Some others might have different methods that work for them.

I think that it will totally help, I have been trying to fly whenever I get in a game and still havent figured out how to drop the bombs correctly, I have gotten ok about taking people out with the regular gun, well planes anyway not people

I'm done with flying, getting too boring and I'm not doing much damage from the air as I capture 4-5 flags every game with my tank.
In cb's, the tanks and just light up any plane with the 50 CAL (not the co-ax) and its pretty much just a portable AA gun, as long as you're accurate.
