Flames and boots....
Posted: Sun Nov 07, 2010 5:27 pm
Towards the end of today's match (Nov7), I flamed and caused a boot (I hit relife 5 times, even have a relife key set on my joystick).... I apologize for that....but....
I wont mention names for today, no reason to...."**it happens", but when a pilot flames another plane, that plane is already dead/down...no need to keep shooting at it....when you continue to shoot at a flaming plane, it screws up the packets, and causes boot (packet loss is what causes boots anyway)....
I remember a few years ago in CW, a certain RAF pilot was continually flaming me (hacker), but then kept shooting me causing me to be unable to relife/exit.
He actually got me suspended for a week for "intentional flame riding"...yaaa...
I just want to remind all...that once a plane starts to flame, its dead....leave it be.....else you may cause a mass boot...
*S* ! and great match today all !!!!
