    I would also be interested in learning the Galaxy, once I grind out the certs.

    Murasa flies with QRY, or at least used to, quite a bit. She's good.

    Unfortunately until I get over my bank-robbing, cop-killing crime spree, this will stay on hiatus until I feel like coming back to PS2.

    In the meantime, I suggest looking over at these playlists:




    https://www.youtube.com/user/SpadarFaar

    (There was another playlist from Spadar, but Hader has some really good ones)

    And this blog helped me a lot:

    Trust me; taking the time to learn how to skirt across stuff in the VR is super helpful. Just when you feel like "ughh need to shoot something", just go ahead and shoot stuff live. It's not like ages ago where you have to wait for AGES to get resources.

    I used to play with a trackball mouse and flying was a lot easier, but the rest kind of sucked. I'd like to get better in esfs too, but i don't think I'll go top gun hard. Hmu when you want to do an air squad

    I need to stop flying a valky and winning air fights. O_o
    I don't think if I have a gunner I've ever lost to another valky, and I haven't seen an ESF stick around with a gunner.
    Libs and gals though, yeah no.
    I think people are actually underestimating the thing because of how you should be flying it. No, I'm not planning on being a dedicated valky pilot. I just tend to fly it around for kicks.
    That and I'm crazy. Mobile spawns are pretty awesome.

    It's neat because you don't actually have to aim properly and line up your nosegun unlike an ESF.
    You can just dodge, and no one is used to a valky actually dodging. Thing has crazy vertical boost.

    You have a solid valk. The way you fly it made me reconsider how I felt about it. I used to think it was complete shit but now it's breddy gud

    Yesterday I took out a valk and Icebalm was my gunner, we took out a fully manned lib. They tried to get a bead on us for the main gun but with the way the valk moves, that would never happen.
    We also went up against gals and had little trouble, but I don't think they had very good gunners.

    Valk is OP.

    Damn that's legit.

    I should come out with you guys one time. :D

    But hey, Xiander's gig with the Gal started out with something similar to what you guys were doing with the valk. All it matters is that you guys have fun.
