Things have impoved 100% with the new machine. One really needs a decent frame rate to compete as a fighter - no getting around it. I notice too, high -g (not high deflection) shots don't work at all here. A classic position in that "other game" was having the bogie under you nose almost to your feet, pulling max g's and peppering him under your plane. I find here, its just a complete waste of ammo. Here, I think snapshots rather than tracking shots, are more effective.
And you gota love that kill the shooter thing - seriously. It's bitten me twice but only once can I really say it was the other person's fault. How he got between me and the bandit without rear ending the bandit was only because I blew the bandit up right before he flew into my stream
I didn't like it while I was floating down, but I think in most instances it favors the pilot who's really on the target. Its a pretty good solution to kill stealing.
