Guys, as much as i love to fly the 109 i have to ask a very simple question.
Is this a gut feeling that something is wrong, or is there a way to measure that it is off?
I mean, in order for it to be treated as a bug we must have a case of:
1) This is how it should be
2) Evidence
3) This is how it is in the sim
4) If 1 and 3 don't match, please fix bug
I hadn't flown it in a while but i took it up yesterday for a couple of hours on ATAG and i had no problem whatsoever. It just feels like a fast, energy fighter and yet it's controllable at speeds below 200km/h.
I'm not a hot shot by any means and i have a really hard time picking out contacts because i spend a lot of time in bombers and don't practice this skill enough. Even so, on my second sortie i had no problem staying behind a spit and filling him full of lead. Just came with some altitude advantage, kept my speed up and used maneuvers with a vertical component to turn with him.
Then i got a lag spike and crashed into him, but i think he was already bailing out by that point because i saw the canopy fly off.
Then again, i'm used to that style from all those years of flying 190As in IL2:1946, so maybe that's why its handling doesn't bother me. Heck, it's a piece of cake to fly compared to those 190s
