What was the problem with him?

[SEE]

MrX logged into ATAG the other night. I didn't run into him during that session but he was bagging a lot of Red players at an impressive rate. I kept a watchfull eye on my six and wondered where his killing field was...now I know.

Don't understand what the issue is with MrX, looks like pretty much standard proceedure. Come in fast, get close hit hard and climb away. It works just as well when flying for the other side, get across the Chanel with some altitude and do the same thing! I think one of the biggest advantages the blues have is that they utilize coms better and we seem to fly in pairs or groups with a plan more often than the RAF flyers, the advantage of teamwork can not be understated.

Absolutely. So come on Reds, get onto TS3 especially if you're on the ATAG server. And be prepared to team up and work together and leave the egos at the door - until you meet a 109

Good fun on ATAG server this evening S~!

Too bad everyone stacked the blue team so I couldn't fly blue

... but Spits and Hurris will do for this one time

While that may be appealing to some, there are better games out there for that... might I suggest Wings of Prey?

CheeseHawke - Im afraid I must disagree. Clearly we have a situation were the game has incorectly modeled the spit 1a, net result = a clear advantage to blue.

Your line: "109 should have a slight advantage in speed under 3km, and a better climb rate, even over the Spit IIa" is a dramatic understatement. Currently vs the hurri or Spit1, the advantages in this area are massive- not ""slight". And I think the 109's do still have a climb advantage against the IIa.

So I guess we have a stalemate - one side will get an advantage, so which one?

Well, Blue have cannons. Blue also have I think a better climb rate than the SPit II. And the Spit II is supposed to be the better plane.

So what I propose is to limit the number of Spit IIs as was trialled a few weeks back. Make it so blue can at least level the playing field. Saying that adding 4 or so spit 2's is equivalent to adding alien warships is a gross exageration mate. Adjust your tactics and I guarantee you can beat even the best pilots in a IIa. Blue have had it too easy for too long - remember, historically you are supposed to get beaten, it's not supposed to be the cakewalk for the 109's that it is now. The Spit2 should be superior.

Lets do a study - I believe the server now records stats is that right Bliss? Lets add 4 spit 2's into the server and see how many kills they get over the course of a week. MrX had 30 kills last time I saw him online - I never saw a spit 2 with anything like that when they were on the server.

Lol...

You are wasting your time Recon they are not interested in an honest discussion, thus the exaggeration and soon to come insults.
