It's such a difference between NA and EU for these marathons. With all the bots many missions are easy. With RUbots, not so much. Basically in every game there are more then one that would chase you through the entire map, for half the game and jump on you again and again even though you killed them 4 times so far. It's a mess and any intended mission plan goes out of the window way too often. This particular mission I had to try 7 battles for. It used to be much easier in the EU before the CIS horde came.
a pretty good battle overall, I do enjoy the fights with the bots, but I find if you don't lock yourself into one objective, such as defense...you can easily lose to bots by not directing your own bots around. Happens to me all the time, I get lost in the battle and suddenly it's over with a loss and I'm like damnit
It looks like you get special account treatment by Wg because you are a major WoWp streamer and video poster for Wg. I rarely get that kind of accuracy of my bullets. Either that or Wg is deliberately handicapping my account because I am a vocal advocate of "fair and balanced battles" and hate "extreme rng" that results in most battles being "the team with the better bots wins" all the time. There is way, way, way too much server BiaS in this game that makes for too many battle that can't be won no matter how well I play. I've had Ace battles, captured 4+ sectors, and double the score of the top red team human player and still lost because my team's bots weren't able to keep what I had just captured. That is seriously wrong, Wg should fix this (but I know won't), and level the battlefield so that the team with the best human pilots win and not the bots. Your ability to almost casually shoot down aircraft is the opposite of what I have to do. Yes, I am leading the target sufficiently and correctly, I have around 100 fps (no problem there), I have an 8 core 3.3 GHz Intel cpu, and latency is in the 45ms to 60ms range (that I can't change given my location in Florida away from the NA server in the Chicago area). Yet in most battles I have to work hard to get enough bullet hits to destroy an aircraft. Something is wacky for me.
Zombie: You have always been great with fighters and Havies, GGG as well, great stream
Thank you Zombie :)

Yak-15. Lovely plane
You didn't engage the bomber squadron immediately like the announcer told you too :P
I don't know how I survived...

Yeah, since these missions are about "the mission" not necessarily the win it can lead to bad losses.

WG doesn't give me any special treatment. WG doesn't give me any treatment lol. Maybe is a ping issue? Maybe it's my build/pilot skill combo?
