Rise of Flight MP - Friday Evening

Silent Disapproval Robot · December 07, 2012, 11:01:04 PM

Tuna and I got a few missions in on the New Wings server. It was pretty fun even though I never could seem to link up with Tuna. (always lost sight of him in the clouds or in a furball). I got 5 kills, died 3 times and got to shoot at dirty Huns with my Webley. Good times!

Just got your Steam IM :/

Post here if you are around tomorrow night. Between now and then I should get some time in to learn.

Some screenies

Moving in on a furball on the German side of the lines.

Man, what the hell am I doing in a Sopwith Triplane? All the German players are in DVIIs or Dr1's.

Thank Jeebus that there were a couple of Entente guys in SE5's keeping the Germans distracted. I get the jump on a DVII that was fixated on an SE5

But he quickly turns the tables on me so I have to bust out the Webley.

It doesn't work out so well.

Next flight up, I run into more DVIIs and Dr1s

I get the jump on a DrI (I think it's the same guy from before) and send him into the dirt.

Then I get behind a DVII

And BBQ him up right.

Great screenshots SDR!

Sweet SDR. Your plane sponsored by Pepsi?

Do I look Egyptian to you?

Gusington · December 08, 2012, 04:09:27 PM

Yes.

Loved your screenshot of the Webley.

Keep updating here when you are around. Once I do the tutorials and some practice missions I will want to get into MP. And probably buy a crapload more planes. And the Channel map. And a seaplane. Etc.

I'm around today/tonight if you want to get some flying or gunnery in.

Thanks. they're a bit small and the FOV looks a bit restricted because I cropped them to remove the chat logs and whatnot.

I am residing in the GMT + 1 area, so depending on where you guys are it might be difficult to join up.
But IF possible, I would like to.

Father Ted · December 10, 2012, 10:22:11 AM

GMT here too, but Friday is generally my RoF night. If any of you trans-Atlantic chappies are about on a Friday afternoon, I'm usually on New Wings Wargrounds or Syndicate Realism, depending on which is more full. I'm going to make sure I'm on the same side as SDR, though - five kills in one session! That's about a month's worth for me.

This is quite handy for seeing what's going on:http://online.riseofflight.net/en/

LOL. The only reason I was able to get 5 kills was because I was in a Sopwith Tripe when everyone else was in Camels or SE.5's. Coming after me would've been kind of like picking on the special needs kid for his lunch money. I'd just kind of fly around looking pathetic until someone turned their back on me, then I'd let 'em have it with full on retard strength.
