N1 Fragility?
« Reply #15 on: October 29, 1999, 03:14:00 PM »
While I did find the N1K to be more fragile than the other AH aircraft, I did get several multiple mission kills in it (which is a rarity for me.)

What I like about it is it's ability to out climb (in a steep spiral climb)  and out turn even the Spit.

ok what about times where I mention 1 ping over open chan. and they reply yup I only saw on hit aswell... in one fight the attacker caught me low after killing another guy (no pings, he didnt have a chance) the attacker raced in fired a deflection shot saw one hit sprite and when he got turned around he couldnt find me and asked where I went. I said look at the buffer.. "how you die, was you hurt from before?" "I only saw only one hit you." this was bad as my ENTIRE tail section was removed by a .50 cal round. I dont see a need to turn down the .50s as they work fair against teh other planes it just seems the N1K2 is a touch fragile. Im glad they didnt model the recoil onthe cannons... you'd rip your own wings of firing your own guns.

Just landed 3 sorties in a row. All 3 sorties I racked up 2 kills without hardly trying. The sortie before that I got trapped by a high spit & a high p51 & went down after
(Seemed right to me) moderate amt of damage.
Takeing the spit with me.

Vert moves, turns, stalls, all feel spot on.
Love the plane & the guns.
