Ganun pala yun. Sobrang mahal nga ng upgrading ng low-tiered planes.

Eto isang example ni UWSPJasonChan upgrading the F-2A to level 14.

Eto naman ang level 15 ng F-14 Tomcat.

Last tourney nasa rank 3650 ako kaya hindi ako nakapasok dun sa bracket na may Pirates emblem. nickname lang ang nakuha ko.
Ipon ulit tayo ng stocked fuel para sa Ridgeback tourney naman. Tho, hindi ko inaasam na makakapasok ako sa top 200.
These ranking events give me the reason to use my contracts and all my stocked fuels. hehehe

pareho po tayo ng binagsakang bracket, although nasa 6k ang score ko.

Ano po pala ang gamit mo na plane when using stocked fuel? keep in mind na may research palagi napupunta sa plane na gamit mo kapag stocked fuel ang gamit. actually ngayon ngayon ko lang nalaman yan hahaha.

Wala na kasi ako ibang pambatong plane kundi yun F-35B lang kaya yun lang ang ginagamit ko all the time. Yeah, narinig ko nga yun na may upgrade na i-allot sa plane that you are using. Ang hindi ko lang sure ay diba kapag winning team kayo, 3 ang upgrades mo sa tree pero kapag talo ay 2 upgrades lang. Kapag winning ba ay yun 1 of the 3 upgrades ay ilaan agad sa plane that you are using or pang 4th upgrade yun sa plane?

what I read:
winning team = 3 random research
losing team = 2 random research
stocked fuel = research to your plane used + (winning or losing)
plant investment = +1 research

Ex. winning team + plant investment + stocked fuel = +4 random research +1 automatically added sa gamit mo na plane :O

- yung percentage ng increase ay random.

- excess research allocation ay nagiging credits kung kaunti lang ang research mo.. Ex. 2 lang niresearch mo then nasa winning team ka, yung 3rd random research nagiging credits. 1 lang research mo then nasa losing team, magiging credits yung isa. 1 research then gumamit ka ng stock fuel tapos winning team ka pa, yung excess na 3 nagiging credit.

^Ah ganun pala yun.
Kaso nag-switch ako sa Morgan. Parang palagi ko kasi naiisip yun Morgan kaya yun. Pero level 3 pa lang yun kaya hindi ko pa ginagamit. Baka kapag naging available na yun MPBM nito baka simulan ko na siya gamitin sa mga matches.

With the help of Duck360, I was able to complete the ESM and ECM challenges. 2 Playstation ni Duck, 2 accounts. 4 player room. magkakampi kami gamit niya Berkut niya habang ako yun ESM and ECM planes. Yun isa niya account idle lang kaya yun isang member lang sa kabila ang mag-tratrabaho.

Mukha naman mabait itong si Duck360, added nya na ako sa friendslist nya. hehe

Oh good to hear it! There's a player named samuraiaoi, TLS na morgan ang gamit niya at hindi ko siya matalo talo kahit ilang ulit.

I played with ducky360 kanina, and he's a fun guy haha. Kaso na disconnect siya sa 2nd battle namin.

I was able to encounter yung Emergency air strike and ground strike. Air strike is the haven for fighters talaga. Mga F-22 and T-50 sa huli mabibili as very evasive at makunat, it took me 7 missiles with Missile power M upgrade to trash 1 down. The Ground Strike is haven for UGB and LAGM users. I was able to net 130k on a 2xxx room. It's woooooonderrfuul!

I really suggest arming yourself with fire extinguisher and cockpit armor. I died 4 times sa airstrike and 6 times sa ground strike. Ang sasakit at accurate ang missiles nila.

I was able to enter the 1-200 bracket sa katatapos lang na tournament.

I really love that plane and emblem, sila lang kasi ang may menacing na paint sa lahat ng kontrabida sa series. Buti nalang at mahal ang fuel kaya hindi nag escalate pa ang scoring unlike sa ridgebacks tournament before, I only used around 140 fuels (stock + supplied) para marating ang rank 57.

I never bullied the lower ranks, I use my gripen to match up their planes. Kung may sumali naman na above 1700MR, medyo nag se-seryoso na ako sa aking option.

Thanks to the tournament I was able to unlock 95% of the tree (f-22 branch branch remaining), unlock and level the berkut to lv9 (wala lang pambili ng lv 9) and lv5 UGB.

Na-encounter ko na rin yun Emergency Air Strike, na-invite lang ako ng isang friend ko sa PSN. Halos wala magawa yun F-35B ko. Ang kukunat at ang bibilis ng mga F-22s & T-50s. I was shotdown once kasi mas nag-focus ako sa kakaiwas sa mga missiles kasi hindi rin naman masyadong nakakatama yun mga standard missiles ko. We ended up with a B rank.
Hindi ko pa na-encounter yun Emergency Ground strike.

Congrats at naka-pasok ka sa >200 bracket. So gagamitin mo ba yan prize plane mo or display na lang? :)
Wow! 140 stocked fuels? Ano yan ipon mo or bumili ka?
Sa lahat ng mga tourney planes, yun Ridgeback lang ang inasam ko, kaso kulang na kulang ang 20 stocked fuels. Ipon ulit ako ng stocked fuels for the next tourney.
Baka subukan ko lang ulit yun upcoming TDM.

sa emergency ground strike, kahit may stealth ka or wala, makikita ka talaga nila. I tried flying overhead sa last bunch ng Target, and I have atleast 20 missiles on my butt! Ang masaklap pa, impossible ma iwasan yug missiles dahil mabilis at grabe ang homing.

It'll be my primary fighter now, pwede ko na po mabili yung pak-fa but I still tried my best (and my wallet's best) para makuha itong plane. Nung nagka discount yung 60 fuels, nag karga ako ng dalawa then the rest ay from gold boxes at red boxes na fuels.

imho, napaka ganda gawing fighter ng ridgeback at ng stripes. Mas potent pa maging super fighter ang multiroles dahil sa quantity ng part slots na pwede ilagay. Pero may nakalaban ako na player si rey-x-voxfeed na normal shinden user, ang galing mag air to air sa coop.

Since nakuha ko na po ang inaasam ko na plane and emblem, I can rest now and play the game at my own pace. :D

Eto sa TDM, si F-35B pa rin gamit ko using HCAA. I was shot down once but was able to shot down 1 rival too. Buti nanalo team namin nung 1st time ko ulit mag-TDM (just to get the 3x supplied fuels reward).

Nice, may video recorder ka na. makakapanood na ako ng mga feats mo sa ACI. hehe
Ganda ng pagka-pula ng Strigon.
Ang lupit mo pala sa TDM. Inggit ako sa mga magagaling using Expert controls.

Haha! yes the resupply fuel challenge! buti nakikinig na uli ang proj. aces satin :D

I would realy suggest mag expert ka na rin. Sa umpisa lang magiging sloppy sa pag liko at medyo nakaka dis-orient, but... Exercise lang ang katapat niyan. Good thing there's a fire extinguisher sa game and you won't die instantly (in most cases) if you crash to something.

kahit ako'y noob pa rin sa paggamit ng controls, mahina ang aking eye-hand coordination.makikita sa video na minsan medyo exaggerated at minsan kapos ang mga turns. It really pays well, you should try it! :D

Kaso mahina na mata ko sa mga nakaka-disorient na games. Minsan nga kapag sinasalang ko ulit yun COD Black Ops 1 ko para makapag-match ng konti, after ilang matches lang ay nagluluha na mga mata ko. Madali na mapagod.
Stick na lang muna ako sa Standard controls. It can still make the job done.

Buti rin at ginawa ng BAMCO na attainable yun ibang challenges sa TDM. Except yun S ranking a mission and destroy TGT or SP targets.
Also, kahit matalo team nyo sa TDM, you can still get 3 items to be upgraded in the aircraft tree unlike kapag natalo ka sa Co-Op match, 2 upgrades lang.

Sinubukan ko yun level 5 Morgan ko sa TDM equipped with MPBM. Minsan nakaka-tama yun yun MPBM ko pero most ay miss. Hindi ko pa nasubukan gamitin TLS sa TDM.
Mas better pa rin yun F-34B ko kesa kay Morgan sa TDM.

I apologize for pushing you too much. As long as you can enjoy the game, please do so. :D

I quite notice yung ginawa nila ngayon sa TDM, I thought dahil panalo kami kaya ang daming research, but nung nalampaso ang team namin (I was using a crap plane and a very intermittent dsl) Nagulat ako at nagkaroon ako ng 2 research. Magandang idea dahil last 2 tournaments nakaka walang gana mag TDM dahil napaka unrewarding, kaya pala ang dami nang nag ga-grind sa TDM.

I have to say, I'll sit this TDM out, napaka crap ng connection ko talaga. Even at Co-op, ang mga missiles ko ay hindi nag ho-homing and palagi na uunahan ng kakampi or kalaban.

It's ok. No harm done. You were just trying to help me. :)

Ang hindi ko lang pala kinagusto sa TDM ay yun max 140 experience lang ang binibigay. Kahit na pa ikaw ang MVP. Unlike sa Co-op missions na umaabot sa 400 plus ang experience points.
Ma-miss ko ang TDM. Sana palaging may TDM at palagi may challenge that awards 3x supplied fuels daily. hehe

Hindi naman ako nag-participate masyado sa TDM. Just used Supplied Fuels after ko ma-accomplish yun mga requirements sa Daily Challenges that involves playing in Co-op.
My final rank was 6297 so I got the 4th bracket prizes.
- Ustio Air Force nickname
- 5x aircraft research reports
- credits x 15,000

Natuwa naman ako. Naka-MVP ang level 7 Morgan ko equipped with MPBM in an Emergency Air Strike Mission with a bunch of Japanese players. hehe Totally unexpected ko yun.

Another ranking tournament pero this time hanggang top 1000 na ang pwedeng manalo ng Black Hornet.
Pass muna ako sa tourney na ito. Ipon na lang ulit ako ng fuels. nasa 40 pa lang Stocked fuels ko ngayon. Mga ilan ba ang safe na stocks para makapasok sa top 200?

It depends sir snake.

Sa ranking event ng ridgeback, mahina ang 200 fuel sa rank 180-200 dahil may fuel sale.
Sa strigon even (which I joined and no fuel sale that time), around 120 fuel combined na ang stock and supplied, pasok ka na sa top 200. I ended at 57 that event and used around 150.
sa TDM ibang usapan dahil malaki ang cash reward na mas kailangan ng mga tao. I'm guessing same sa ridgeback

It's really up to what the reward and if there's a sale.

Another thing is, hindi ko rin naman kaya na mag-marathon mahabang oras nakababad sa ACI.
Estimate ko ay nakaka-6 matches ako sa 1 hour. 5 minute waiting time sa lobby + 5 minute actual match. So sa 1 hour = 6 fuels.
Lets say may available time ako na 5 hours para mag-babad sa ACI. 6 x 5 = 30. That's 30 fuels for 5 hours.
And hindi rin ako pwede all the time maglaro kasi syempre gagamitin din nila yun TV... and bad for our health. hehe
