This game does have some glaring flaws. That being said, its the best flight game on any console at the moment.

I am thankful that Anton and the gang took the time to make it. And are taking the time to improve it.


Things are only going to get better.

Shameful!!! While I do agree with your comment about this no being a fair match up the suing thing seems a bit much. What would Werner think???

Its quite frankly not a big deal, but im sick of seeing planes always in favour of the Allies.

The Bf 109 had a 7:1 kill ratio

You would never believe it according to this game!!

All im asking for is a little bit of respect on the part of the German side and that seems to be too much for "Oleg's World"

Sorry but this needs to be said, im a pilot myself and i would like some justice here.

This game assumes that the Spitfire was the saviour of the day in the Battle of Britain. It wasnt, it was the Hurricane. No one ever accredits the Hurricane because it wasnt as agile or as fast and as pretty.

The top 100 fighter pilot scorers were all from Germany in World War 2! Does it not possibly occur to anyone that there is a correlation between the fact these pilots all flew Bf 109's throughout most of their careers and the horrendus kill scores!

This is just more "Spitfire is wonderful" bias in a world that believes in propoganda rather than fact. Thats all i stand for passionate flying, historical and accurate. Judge as you will.

if you play online, you see more 109's than spits. So I think many people DO like the 109 more than the spit. And this is your point right? that this spit 'is the plane of choice' because there is no 'good 109'? (sorry if I misunderstood)

i know its a spit Mk2, and unfortunately it has cannons which it shouldnt really have since it should be a Mk1.

But...

i dont think it flies like a Mk2 in game does it? basically in game its a Mk1 but in a Mk2 airframe, so bar the cannons its pretty much a Mk2 looking Mk1


i could be wrong.

I agree to a certain extent with the sentiments of the OP (not the law suit part).

They should have a Spit Mk Ia and a Hurricane Mk I in the game to be adversaries of the Bf-109E. And likewise, the Germans should have at least a 109E-4 since that variant was in use with the Luftwaffe at the beginning of the BoB. Also, and I think I've said this before - I know others have - but, performance of the German aircraft seems to be lacking versus the Allied aircraft. From what I know, the Spit and 109 were relatively comparable in most respects, the 109 having the climb rate advantage and the Spit having the leg-up on speed. Hurricanes should be able to out-turn 109s. It should be more of a toss-up with the 109 and Spit. Also, the negative-g cutout on the Merlins of the early Spits and Hurricanes doesn't come into play in the game, as it stands - leaving a primary tactic of Luftwaffe pilots unable to be exploited.

With that said, I find life in the E-3 okay. It could be better, but it ain't bad. In fact I think it has a bit of an advantage against late-war planes, if you can keep your six clear. You're much slower, so people tend to overshoot. You have a competitive roll rate. In some matches, people tend to ignore you and go for the "more dangerous" opponents (G-6, Spit IX, etc.), until they get a wing blown off by your cannons.

For the time being, us 109 pilots will have to soldier on with the gear we've got. All we really need is for the flaps to work in realistic - that'd even the score a bit. And cockpits for better orientation.
