Question about a P-38 maneuver
« on: October 02, 2009, 01:31:52 AM »
I was playing another game and I noticed the P38 was enabled on CVs!



Also, the P38 on this game allowed me to hit anything the length of my wings.



Also, I can get wingmen and power ups.



Why aren't these enabled in AH?

At least THEY got the flaps right, you guys can't do anything right.                         :devil

Looks like the P-38 in that game has an uber-rudder as well. Way to go HiTech, you suck at historical accuracy!  :mad:

Those guys are GOOD at formation flying.  Mine spend most of their time clearing my 12 or zipping in front of me for a quick kill-shooter to the tower.   :lol
