262s
« on: June 14, 2008, 05:59:08 PM »
Why do I always catch fire in a 262? Only a select few times have I had damage to my 262 and have it NOT be a fire. Just now...I killed an A6M, and I flew past a sunk CV, I heard 3 or 4 hit sprites, and I look back...BOOM...on fire. No other damage whatsoever.

They fooled you. You have been sold a A6M with German markings, two fake "jet" pods under your wings and a hidden hairdryer in the back to make that fancy "jet" sound...

Seriously though...I don't get it. I rarely take any damage in one...and if it happens...it's me on fire.

Did you happen to get any film of this?
Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:

Ummm... perhaps Jet Fuel is flamable? I'm not real sure, but I think fuel catches fire...  :D

Maybe you sucked a seagull into your engine intake, or a flying sheep.

I always get pilot wounds and I almost always die from them. I never die from pilot wounds in any other aircraft, I just land with varying amounts of parts left on my plane when I come to a complete stop.

Perhaps I just try to fly further in the Schwalbe when I've taken a hit in guts.

I rarely catch fire in the 262. Oil damage all the time (particularly from bloody Lancs) but rarely fire.

I hear Pigs On The Wing have a new Swine FOD weapon. Maybe you were hit by that. :)
