The current pilots code (updated version ) is huge. It's amazingly big. The major point is simply put. RESPECT one another. Treat others as u wish to be treated. Be honorable & show honor to others & it will be returned tenfold. i asked an ol friend to get me a copy of the Original VGL code which is the oriPosted Imageginal Battletech code.. it's pretty darn simple & everyone has always followed it.

I have always tried to fight with honor, to give respect where I can, and not respecting it in return, but welcoming it if it does. However, I have NEVER seen this.

This is the Pilot's Code from the Virtual World Entertainment sites. Aka the "Battletech pods" that you'll hear some of us old timers talking about from time to time.

Thanks for that trip down memory lane... In the time it took to watch that clip, I shat myself, lost hair, developed liver spots and forgot who I was... :)

I still have all my old battle reports, and the tally sheet for my placings. If I counted correctly I dropped 85+ times.

I still remember when I was qualifying for Expert the resident pilot who I was testing against, and all the techs, thought I was crazy for picking a Blackhawk. Was a super fast win for me in the end... speed and laser boating and rear-firing guns were just too strong.

1. NO. A Pilot`s first responsibility, in any mission, is to accomplish the ******* mission. EVERYTHING else is secondary in comparison. Anybody that does not embrace that is essentially doomed to fail before even pressing launch.

Otherwise I agree entirely. Point 1 is just badly phrased to the point of almost denying reality. :P

1992: Rear-firing guns were OP.

2014: Rear-firing guns not possible due to engine limitations (no PIP).

:)


EDIT: Besides that I would have liked to try and use a pod. Would be even awesome today.
