The ME262 - BOOMSTICK load out
« on: October 08, 2009, 03:18:08 AM »
There was a variant of the 262 which saw service that had a single 40mm high velocity cannon in the nose.

All I can say is  :pray PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

It would be good for PWNING bombers and alot of fun, plus it would only be a gun package not a complete redesign.

ok 50mm

Well I see it this way.

The ME262 has been the same for a while. This drab jet has been the same all this time and the new version made it worse with no different skins.

Well my idea was to breathe some life into the 262 with a super awesome BFG, 50mm cannon. This cannon would be super effective against bombers and unbelieveable against fighters.

It would be a small and easy but really good addition to a plane which gets almost no attention. And how cool would it be to see a LA or a Spitfire disintergrate in front of you I mean come on who does'nt want that.

Just patch in the code for a 40mm, boost it to a 50mm and create a tiny texture for the cannon on the nose and hey presto this addon is here.

I don't think it's that easy...HTC models everything with perfection in mind.

why would you want that 50mm when a 30mm kills most aircraft with 1 round? I could see maybe for bomber hunting but honestly the 262 is fine the way it is and the skins are great

Because the bigger one is jutht thuper!

It's thuper awethome!







In fact, I think it might even be thuper-duper, mithter!
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

Hehe typing with a lisp.  As far as the cannon being useful on fighters all I can say is good luck hitting one with it.

4 30mm vs. 1 50mm that fires 5 times as slow?  It would be good for nothing. 

Even if Attacker was added, few experienced 262 sticks would start going for gv's with a single 50mm.  Been there, done that with the 75mm howitzer.

GV kills with a 262? I htink that fix is on the way also. No... this plane would be up for the deflection shot competition though.  :aok

Done it.   :aok

All by myself.

I had an idea of adding the "attack" version of the 262, with the two bomb racks, an a perk bomber.

Something to burn bomber perks on.

Wrongway has a good idea.

But on the earlier points.

It would be an awesome add on the simple grounds of the AWESOME factor. Thats how the B25H got in and the ME163. So it seems logical that just creating a gun pack or even Wrongway and his attack version with this BFG and bombs would make the 262 just kickarse. Not to mention that you would still be able to ride with the 30mm's and blast people with those while the 50mm is there for some BFG fun and to whoop bombers and maybe even a fighter.

Imagine a B17, DESTROYED in one shot  :x
