The cure for the "its uber" sickness
« on: December 22, 2000, 04:58:00 AM »
I know that many folks have legitimate gripes about things in AH that are not modeled correctly, but from what I have seen %90 of the griping is relativly unfounded, I am sure HTC is getting tired of reading that stuff (if they even do anymore) so i have a suggestion for them.

Pyro, HT why dont yall make yerselves a nice pretty pair F-14 Tomcats and then get on the MA and hunt down the REAL crybabies and show them whar "Uber" is.  nothing will make a person realize that these aircraft are pretty closesly matched overall like  getting smacked by a Sparrow missle.

Hey! don't try to get away with your uber hispanos!

It is very true that hispanos are overmodelled.

Hispanos?  Fast airplanes?

Karnak has 2 kills and has been killed 0 times in the A6M5b against the N1K2.

Just don't look at the rest of my stats (Thats two thirds of my kills in this Tour).

I toss those 30mm balls of death.  Man talk about uber, touch anything and it's dead.  You F4u drivers need a PR man like Fishu, he's kept instadeathLWCannon(tm) completely quiet all this time by shouting "hispano" every five minutes.

(I like the zeke too Karnak, tears nikis to pieces)

Where I remember MG151/20 having uberness, is it's way to fill up zeke with hits and still not having enough damage on it

I've never had to see 2 sprites on the 30mm for whoever I'm shooting to fall apart.

For what its worth Fishu, I've survived multiple passes from F4U-1Cs, taking several hits per pass, while in an A6M5b.

Also remember that the A6M5b is much more durable than an A6M2 or A6M3.

Of course I do know that 5 has some more armor than 2 or 3, but it surely didn't have THAT much more...
(I'd think that P47 has more armor than zeke 5.. but still I can hit both as many times)

Hmm.. you're quite lucky in that case  
Already in Spit 5 I just have to give very short burst with Hispanies and its the end. (and thats just 2 hispanies)
