British FM killing the fun of the game for allied pilots.

The Dev's should publish the procedures for proper operation and if those instructions are followed, the power production is the same as when "temperature effects off".

Is there an official Operating Notes for the game? The only ones I am aware of are from players.

I think its hard to believe that the Devs would release a patch that fooks up the FM's and if they did not release a quick hot fix by now even if it meant rolling back the FM to pre beta state so I can understand the angle Crumpp is coming from here..

The Devas have a wealth of info in regards to these FM's and have accumulated this over many years....I suggest they release what they see as proper operating instructions for these aircraft, what have they wrote into the FM that they see as proper operation, that would be interesting to see

Here are the Pilot's Notes General comments about oil flow under negative-g:


Spitfire II Pilot's Notes take off plus climb speeds:



The Air Min was also realistic enough to understand that in air combat one cannot simply fly exactly by the book and survive; the Pilot's Notes General make the following observation about taking risks:

This says a lot about your 'feel' because there's a world of difference.

Osprey,

It is defineable and measureable, characteristic.

It is not based on a subjective opinion.

You misunderstand the term frankenplane btw.

Sorry, I am not up on my gaming lingo.

What is the correct term for a FM that is overmodelled in its capabilities?

[Crumpp]

The second part, he never suggested that, we want 2 models which are reasonably representative of each

I agree the game should reasonably represent the airplanes.

Now, it is reasonable representation of the airplanes if one plane has a much better relative dogfighting capability than it had in reality to the others?

I don't think so....

He must've deleted his post

I just combined the post to answer two people.

"Feel" is absolutely subjective, for example ask any decent golfer if he prefers to use a Titleist ProV1 or a Pinnacle ball - he'll tell you a bit about 'feel', and it's not measured.

"overmodelled"

But you know, if you think the Spitfire is overmodelled then that's laughable, overall it definately isn't.
