Jumping back into WC after a few years

Hello all,

I looked at WCNews again a few days back when I started thinking about playing more games.. and WOW. I never knew there was so much development going on. :)

At any rate, so I downloaded Standoff and started playing again.. and my god, do I suck.. :eek: I used to be sooooo much better.. I guess the AI has also improved considerably since WC4 (the last full series I played)..

So, I'm wondering, is there a site or a section here that's dedicated to flying tactics & tips? Just wanted to brush up on a few forgotten principles. I keep getting killed in the first 2 missions in Standoff :p The mass driver cannons and lasers seem to move alot slower than WC4, and I guess I'm having trouble compensating for it. The ITTS (green thingy) is nice, but somewhat useless b/c the enemy has moved away by the time the "bullet" travels there.

Anyways, comments/thoughts? Just want to learn how to improve my game.. Thanks everyone!

You could play a bit of Prophecy, so you'll get aquainted with the flight model and guns.
But I could be wrong.
 
actually, i take it back - my last series i delved into was prophecy.. but i played it on my friend's PC (I had an old PC), so I didnt spend much time with it (was playing invincible most of the time - just wanted to find out the plot/story line :P) hehe..

i also did a few SO missions when they had that free episode thing going on.. gosh, it was so long ago. :)
