Hi Osprey,

I think the Bf109 owned the Hurricane in reality.
Actually, in CoD I find the Hurricane more lethal than the Spitfire I series...

No need to flame me, let's wait for the patch and we can complain later... LOL


@Jatta Raso: You must be getting the worst pilots, your technique is good and precise but, in my squadron, any Bf109 wingman that would follow a Spit or Hurri on a right turn, I would have court-martialed...

I'm not sure if this upcoming patch will address any FM issues; hopefully it will increase performance to such a degree that heavier cloud formations are possible without killing our framerates. That will change the combat environment and dynamics tremendously for both sides -- fighters AND bombers. I trust the clouds will be more opaque than the little ones we have now!

I made a test couple of months ago, this is what i got

Tom, your numbers look spot on to me as far as the RAF data goes; I have no doubts you're equally accurate for the LW fighters, too. If the devs see fit to use these figures in adjusting the FM's it should make for some interesting dogfights.

I'd probably stick with the Rotol for bomber intercepts -- I feel I can "deliver more lead on target" with the Rotol than with the Spit; others may feel differently.

i hope the Spit isn't giving me bad habits, like getting lazy relying too much on super agility and such (i'm always trying to learn how to better keep my energy though); on the other hand, rookie mistakes made by 109s may be more easy to exploit... i have mostly one type of foe atm, so combat is becoming a rather patterned issue for me. (ok i lost a fight against a 109 some days ago but i was drunk :lol:)

Actually on ATAG I see too often lone 109s trying to follow read planes in turn-fight ... tsk tsk ...

I like the little shy german tank with a 75mm(Pz IV? Stug III?) peaking around the corner in a few shots.

I see it as well. It appears to be a German PZ IV due to the hull shape and the gun fitted on it is not historical for the time period (didn't the PZ IV with L/43 come to service in late 1942. Forgive me if I am wrong).

Coming from online session right now... I hope the patch will be available soon... It´s incredibly frustating when game chrash in THAT moment... or the huge fps drop when aproaching a bomber formation.

The previous versions with the short 75mm/L24 didn't disappear when the new Panzer IV Ausf. F2 (renamed Ausf. G soon) appeared. Some were still in use the year after. ;)
