If you run into a few BnZ pilots who know how to push it effectively, fighting against a BnZ is ANYTHING but boring
I agree with this.  I have on the rare occasion run into some agressive BnZrs, it was fun for a little while, theyd dive I'd jink, theyd go back up jsut enough come back down I'd let em walk up a little closer, jink etc..., but it is so rare to find a guy that is a very agressive BnZer that they  are almost unmentionable.

True.  Not compaining, just curious about the mentality.  I mean he clearly had ammo and gas, because he was just coming into the fight from his base.  I was alone ( I think).  Certainly there were no high alt greens around me.  And he had a bit of alt.  He's a pretty good stick.  He had no kills, there was no one else around.  But he runs 2 sectors towards rookland, going nowhere in particular.  He didn't have ord, or anything.  Is this some new strategy?  :confused:

Pinged you with mg's but had to break when a P-51 newbie crashed the party. Still got the kill, dunno what happened to you, but anyway.


Thanks for sayin so.  Yeah I remember that.  Was a great fight!

Recently I've been seeing a guy in a 190.  Just to clarify, not anyone in this thread.  He blows by everyone and heads to the base, does a few "runway passes".  No base capture attempt going on by anyone, BTW.  I'm in a fast plane so I catch him.  He rolls like a madman for a bit, then dies.  I've been killing this guy a lot, like multiple days, multiple times per day, he's doing the same thing.  Finally at some point in the evening I see "xxxx landed 5 kills".  LOL, wonder what happened there. :D  

Anyway, if that's fun, then great.  Really can't understand it though.

I know there is alot of good 190 pilots, but the ones we have now are absolutely awful, the ones circling over A4 last night are a good example.

 They come in at high speed, 'one pass, haul a**', vulch, and extend 6k out even though there was only 3 aircraft up. It helped tone my accuracy with the field guns, but I don't see how they can have any fun.

There are a lot of players trying out the Fw190D-9 that never really flew it before.  I think this is due to the ENY plane limiter and AH2's emphasis on speed.

And thats probably their mistake.
Speed has alot to do with this game but its not everything.
I find  myself more effective running at a reduced throttle when fighting and only gloing full bore when I need some extra umph then running fast all the time.
Most of the time when Im killed or otherwise outflown Im finding its because I was going too fast and overshooting, not too slow
My opinion throttle management is almost key in the FW.

Seems to me the best way to learn a plane and it's advantages/disadvantages is to stay in and take your lumps.

Since no one really dies and you get a free plane next trip, why not?  I can see grabbing away from the fight for a bit of alt, but the one pass haul a** passes seem pointless.

I can't believe folks are that worried about perks and points.

damn straight if you come at me with alt for a head on I will get space and do same to you. 3x 20mm usaly work nice.

if you dont go for a head on then i usualy will fight properly unless your guaranteed to out turn me.
