    Actually, I'm so good with them that I can recognize their limitations. You keep practicing and eventually you'll be at my level.

    When i pilot i only run engineer when LA on the ground exclusively drifters max drifters are one of the most fun things to do in game you feel like batman space ninjas and lasers and ****. Been here since day 1 and no complaint about esf with LA pilots and i play alot in the air so whats really the problem? If they use em to bail i don't even have to shoot em down half the time lol and if i damage em and they bail free esf kill.

    I'm sure you can write that up on your curriculum vitae.

    Your wrong or trolling, pick one.

    actually after maxing all jets drifter by far are the best with most utility i can cross whole bases in a single bound fly up buildings peek over railings while hovering toss 4 frags while at a good cruising alt its like a one man bombing run. Icarus suck yay poptarts only thing those are really amazing for is when your enemy uses em and you have a shotgun yay skeet shooting! Drifters are my main jet because of the pure utility you get good and can fly through whole buildings.

    I pick neither.

    Also, it's you're.
  7. AxiomInsanity87


    Yes they are the most consistent.

    I love the way your point has degraded into you just trolling now.

    Thanks for agreeing even if it is by much more subtle means and YOU will actually get good with drifters if you use them enough and use momentum.

    i mean here were complaining about hover bob and his esf it could be worse these guys in real life could be chasing your esf with c4 i mean these exist today and ps2 takes place in the future.



    so yea maybe LA will become the new esf one day o_O/ but until then cool yer jets.

    You set the tone, I've only followed suite. So now you want to be serious again? And then when I say something you can't argue with, you'll resort to trolling once again.

    Once you started trolling, I lost interest. But I suspect that is what you were going for. You've killed any further, meaningful discourse between us with your petty antics.

    They are useful at a lot of hossin bases if you get up in the trees. You can drift from tree to tree like a flying squirrel with C4.

    shuddap and watch the video. we've all lost interest in the bickering its unproductive.
  13. Myrken

    Exploding nutz! XD

    buzz off, I wasn't talking to you.
  15. AxiomInsanity87


    Whatever makes you feel better mate lol.

    No you weren't you were typing and nothing productive at that and it was burying interesting opinions and funny things i wished to read and type with egotistical banter. "sticks drifters on you and pulls the ejection lever" go shoot something already.

    I don't know what you are rambling about. I don't have a bone to pick. It's my perception from the kind of comments I see on the forums and what I see in-game. I would like a rule that says you can't call yourself a "dedicated pilot" without at least some smidgen of real world stick time.
  18. CorporationUSA

    Are we gonna play games with semantics now?

    I'm just letting you know that your perception is far from reality.

    If "how most people play" means "they don't take 5 seconds to take advantage of what they've been given" then yes.

    Normal Jumpjets are wonderful, but they don't hold a candle to Drifter Jets how they are now. You can't scale buildings quickly, yes, you have to be more methodical and careful in your approach... But once you have gained that height, once you are above normal vision and know enemy positions, you can easily drop in between them with a shotgun, or work your way to their flanks and attack them from behind, break stalemates etc. And unlike normal jumpjets you can travel that distance in relative safety. Normal jumpjets still require you to walk most of the way on foot, scaling buildings when you get there etc. Drifters require you to scale once, and then you can quickly pass through most area's in much more safety than any other class.

    Dafuq?

    Ok we're all scrubs unless we've all been in some kind of real life action, just a smidgen at least with a side portion of mowing people down in droves.

    I swear on me mam, i've used a jetpack in rl so that makes me a certified bad **** lol ;)
