First of all, if you don't want to be a pilot, or don't think everyone wants to be a pilot, than please dont reply.

Seemingly everyone (including myself) wants to be a pilot. Why? I want to be a pilot because I am good at flyin' in other games. I also like being able to move faster and not have to wory about obsticles. I also like being harder to hit. How 'bout you?

Flying is fun, and it is easy to get kills, heh.

I was going to become a pilot but decided to become a MAX instead due to the fact there are so many people wanting to fly.

Even though I love to fly in games I also enjoyed being in Heavy armor like in T2. Plus I like the idea of attacking bases inside and out.

I enjoy the sens of resonsability that comes with an expensive piece of hardware. Not forgetting a 12men infantry unit with light armored sitting in the back. Also the fun of yelling 'We're in the pipe! Five by Five!' and 'Hang on, we're in for some chop!' in the mic when using voice-over-net programs

I'm a whore for sims (cars, planes). For planes, i specialise in bombing and interception/defence. I mostly play IL2 and am waiting for IL2:Forgotten battles and LockOn. 2 flight sims that will kick ass.

So that's why i love flying. I love the sens of realism and possibilities that comes with those. And i believe i'm good at it to boot.

Im more of a "Tactical" guy. I like sneaking into bases, hacking, etc...

I will be a hacker, stealthy, sniper, recon, light support, and vehicle transport type role. That's whats appealing to me, and sometimes i might take a skeeter or galaxy up for the helluvit

Ever since Aliens, I have always wanted to be a dropship pilot

Now all I need is some guy to hang out the back, yelling "We got guns, knives, 'n sharp sticks!"

I am such a geek :O:




That, and the everpresent hope that I will run into someone named Minmei. Literally. If I hear "My Boyfriends a Pilot" or "Stagefright" ONE MORE TIME, I am going to land a Galaxy on someone

weed it out...


they'll probably change their minds. When trying to get to piloting the highest vehicles, which i think is a galaxy, people will probably change their minds and when hey decide they cant pilot is well or just dont like it they'll probably move onto a different vehicles, because there are so many different kinds of vehicles, and we do needs tanks as well as AEROs, and i mean we'll probably need a lot of AEROs, which is good. but when Pilots have no outfits or a bunch of people to transport they'll get bored waiting around and decide to either just fly in and shoot or grab a different vehicle.

I also figured being a MAX will give me a lot more battle points then just flying.

I dunno, I imagine most of the people wanting to fly galaxies right now are pretty selfless and dedicated to achieving their desired role...

AKA: I am stupid and stubborn, and I aint going to stop until I finally get to fly my big coffin with wings
