AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm curious as to how the spins are modelled in the patch? I noticed that in IL2 1.2 the spins actually took some skill to recover from and in FB 1.0 the planes auto recover when you let go of the stick. Is this changed with the patch?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I can only speak for G-2, G-6 and G-6 late: with Test08 spins are modelled better or more leaning towards IL2 1.2 rather than FB 1.0.

I've read that they als ochanged some 3D models (cockpits?) in the current patch. I'd like to know if the P-47's gunsight has a higher poly count now? That gun sight is the worst one in the whole game. Did they fix the mirror bugs in the Hurri and P-40?

Concerning the 3D models: all I know if is the 190D, but I can't compare pre-patch now, I had to reinstall, but I'm into an interesting fighter campaign at the moment (6 kills only, ~18 missions in a A4)

Stiglr, pull your horns in!

The 108 is by far the most effective weapon in the game, & you're all whining & moaning for it to be made better???

You ARE kidding, right?

I too noticed the change in the Mk108. I havn't had much time in the 262, but what struck me first was the rate of fire seemed increased but that could be just me.

Anyhow, set up a QMB: 262 v 1xPe-8 + 1xDb-3 + 1xLi2 (I think) + 1xIl-2.... just for a bit of fun. Needless to say all 4 Soviets went down on the first pass, except for the Pe-8 which took 2 due to bad 1st pass. I was totally surprised that it took only 1 or 2 second bursts to bring these planes down, and it wasn't just a damaged wing or smoking engine. These planes were literally blown out of the sky in hundreds of pieces!

You can imagine my surprise when I realised that I was only firing two of the 108'sthe whole time, since my Couger with its two stage trigger is in the shop and I was using the ol' MS FFB1

more specifically, how are the .50s on the p47 (since we are talking about changes to the guns

We're tallking about changes to the Mk108 specifically, NOT .50 cals.


Keep up, will ya?

Stilgr,

Strange, I have no trouble making deflection shots with the thing. In fact, I consistently hit a target on the dead six profile from range 0.25.

Perhaps you are referring to the 30mm wing gunpods, which show a very bad tendency to spray from recoil.

Other than my gripe with the quirky damage modelling in FB 1.0, I don't think I have come across a better gun than the Mk108.

Hmmmm.... I really wonder. Not trying to cast doubts on your statments old chap, nor am I saying that you are a poor shot. I mean I wouldn't dream of doing that since I am talking to arguably the most accomplished pilot from 9/JG 52 - The Karaya Staffel, what with all your medals and decorations displayed at your squad's website in such abundance all the way up to the Ying Yang. Maybe one day, when I get a good connection up and running from my currently rather lame server, I should like to meet you online just to see how good you are *throws down the gauntlet*

You know he must be good if he gave the medals to himself. :rolleyes:
