Hell of a pilot!


This guy is part of AC.... one hell of a pilot.

He's called Anakin you can check him up on the Rosters.

Whoever ever whinned about not being able to fly anymore cause of the AA max's and strikers.... watch this movie.

Nice vid, although flying through trees is actually pretty easy in Planetside, but I'm pretty impressed at how quickly he chews through infantry and reavers in a skeeter though!

Yeah, he's an awesome pilot. I agree with Jagd though; flying through trees is cake in a skeeter, but his gunning abilities are extraordinary.

Good pilot The flying through trees on hossin thing isn't that great. Try it a few times and you'll see it's not that difficult because there is actually much less to hit in those swamps than in regular forests (because the foliage on the swamp trees isnt solid). Learn to watch for the roots and it becomes rather easy.

The kills were all pretty good but only one I noticed that was super impressive was the kill when there was two people on top of a hill. The speed of that kill is nothing short of amazing. The other thing I think was great was his dogfighting skills. That chase through the base and then through the swamp by itself isn't too impressive, I do that kind of thing to amuse myself when the fighting has gone inside. That he managed to keep the reaver at the perfect distance almost the entire time and keep his shots on target even while barely able to see the reaver because of the trees while pulling those manuvers is simply awesome imo. All in all I'd say he's definately not someone I would care to go up against in a dogfight unless I've got a couple Sparrow MAXs assisting me

He didn't seem that extraordinary to me, my flying is near identical to that. I use alot of the same strategies (like the kill on the hill, he gunned the guy while charging him, then finished him off by ramming him, that's one of the best ways to take out infantry when you're in a hurry, like running from missile locks for instance). So long as I don't run into AA MAXes or mulitple striker users (a single striker user isn't that hard to take out if you know where he is, and it's much easier to spot them with the missiles on radar now) I can get as many as 5-10 infantry kills and 3-4 aircraft in a single run.

My average mosqito run is something like this:

- Get mosquito, afterburn 50 - 75% of my fuel in the direction I want to go.

- Find one or 2 enemies on the way, dispatch of them easily.

- Spot an aircraft or 2, dogfight for a bit. More often than not they manage to bail before I can take them out (anyone else notice that bug where when the vehicle gets disabled, they warp to about 30 feet ahead? Happens to me all the time and throws my aim off long enough for them to bail). If it's a striker user, I usually have to circle back around and do a flyby on him, sometimes ramming them to finish them off faster.

- Repair.

- Get another 2 or 3 infantry, then get scared off by too much damage/AA MAXes

- Repair.

- Find a lone reaver, get behind him and dispatch of him easily

- Reload/repair at the nearest air tower/base with dropship link.

- Another mosquito gets the drop on me and finishes me off/AA MAX gets the better of me (usually TR, I can outrun most Sparrow missiles)/I decide to try to reenact the Return of the Jedi forest chase sequence by afterburning through a thick forest, clip a tree, and go carreening out of control into the foliage.

- Get new mosquito and repeat.

More often than not, I can keep a mosquito alive long enough for the timer to run out on it, exceptions being coming across TR AA MAXes (whoever says they suck doesn't know what they're talking about, they are the only MAXes that can kill me before I can escape.) or the rare, but occasional, skyguard.

hmmmm


I'm going to agree wit unknown here. Although I'm just starting to skeeter pilot I am a very good reaver pilot, and i agree i've seen better. Main things that made him stand out to me was the fact that he could escape without panicing when he got missile lock. I thought that was excellent flying at that point. His dogfight skills were good too although i think i could match him in either plane, just give me 2 weeks morepractice in my new skeeter .
