 :rofl I go to the MW only when I know these "SAPP" guys are in there because I know it'll be alot of fun. They can be beat by just about any plane in there. You just have to not play their game. Don't take off from the same field you got shot down at. Don't go into the vertical with them, get some alt. And most important, fly with a wingman to help cover your mistakes.

These "uber" fellers are a complete blast to fight and when you get the the on one you'll know you earned it. I'm just glad they don't fly spitfires :lol

Let me know when you're in MW, and I'll wing with you and we'll see if we can't send these boys to the tower a few times. :t I'm not saying we'll beat em', but we'll sure as hell shake em' up a bit  :lol :salute

I'm sure if we switched to the G, we'd have the girls in the MW arena crying to perk it within a week.

I actually out-turned a spit9 in a 38G the other night.  :D

ISPY,

This whole notion is nonsense.  Do you have tangible proof that SAPP has any of these "special mods"?  Sure, we have a vast library of training films, guides, and resources.  And SAPP's Consortium of 12 meets regularly with certain people involved with the game to give their input.  But as far as I know the Blenders are the only upgrade we have.

Anyone who believes SAPP have anything other than good skills, seriously needs their head testing - they are simply that good!!

Holy crap guys, you ALL need to lighten the hell up!

The only guy who "got it" appears to be Anaxagoras.

This is a joke.  And, yes, it is funny.

The little gunsight thingy with the "shoot here" didn't give it away I guess.

Step away from the keyboard.  Take a breath.  Recognize this thread for the whine parody it is.   :rock

After having come back to the game after a few tours in hiatus I have to wonder what htc have done to the FM on the P38s......I used to hate the way the nose bounced all over the place and the plane always seemed weaker in the vertical compared to other planes, like the later 109s.

Now the 109 seems weaker in the vetical compared to the 38, and the 38 seems superior in the vertical to all other FMs...at least in mid war, where I play.

Dont get me wrong...Im loving the 38 for the first time in ten years.  I just wonder if its my memory playing tricks on me or if the FMs have been altered.

And yes, the A-20 needs another 2000 pounds dead weight added to it.  Still too zeke like.  I think htc did a cut paste from the zeke FM template when creating the A-20 FM and simply forgot to change the weights.

Up a P47D11.  Force the P38 to fight your fight.  Keep your advantage.

Don't be duped into fighting your opponents fight...fight yours.  the D11 turns well

but in the vertical it is lousy to say the least.  Give yourself enough room so that the vertical

is of no consequence.  You can break combat at your leisure.

Don't whine....get smart instead.
