Which plane will the N1K2 pilots go to?

"Which plane will the N1K2 pilots go to?"

They'll probably switch to whichever plane the planewhiners switch to whining about.

Lets prove this or disprove it. You have the N1K,I will take the pony or the jug. I will grab more alt than you and we will see how well the "n1k" does.

after that one, I will take a spit5 and you can have the n1k, and lets see what happens then.

up for it? or would you rather just discuss it here?

 

Absolutely Ammo, I'll do it.  I looked for you today, but you haven't been on yet I guess.  What time do you normally play at?

[-ammo-]

well, I try to get on in the evenings, but lately with school starting, I am giving my kids some attention that would normally be AH time. I will try to be on tonite after chruch, or tommorow before/after TOD.

I am sitting here at work reading this post and asking myself..."why aren't these guys flying?" I would love to fight a N1K right now!

 Yep, that will be the LA7. And after that the pony or spit.

 Lastnight I ran into maby 2 or 3 NIK2's and about a dozzen Pony's. Perk the Pony!

I have a really good reason for the N1K, spit and la7 to be perked. Its called using the other fediddleing planes (ac diversity), first time I saw a 202 in the arena it took me a while to figure out what the hell it was, how many you see? how many la5's, how many typhs you see, p47's, sturmoviks?  All I see is fediddleing n1k's, spits n la7's.

Every time I take a 202 up to add some variety, some idiot no matter which plane it is, ho's me, even spits and n1ks which could otherwise outturn me, outrun me and outgun me.  Why?, not because they want a quick kill, its because they're so many other easy mode freeking planes in the ma they're scared someone else is gonna get me first.  So fek you, you wanna fly your stupid easy mode planes, go ahead, gonna fly my real planes n kill ya dumb tulips with skill not BS.

he he

So are you saying you don't want anyone to fly the good planes anymore, because you fly planes for the challenge?

Wouldn't this be taking the challenge out of your planes and replacing it with a new, lower easymode bar?

I get it, you like the challenge, you just want it to be easier.

Zygote, just keep flying the CT.  You can stare at 109s and 190s all day long in your Tiffie.    (when there's someone on to shoot at that is.   )

[DanielMcIntyre]

No Fatty, not saying these planes should no longer be used, I'm saying they should be perked to control their numbers.  There are too many in the MA imo, its boooooorrrrrring.


Bloody boring, spit spit, la7, spit, spit, n1k, n1k, n1k, spit, spit, wow P47, spit ...


What don't ya understand about that m8?

And Nifty, what you on about?  Combat arena is cool, unpopulated? No N1K's apparently.

[Karnak]

Zygote,

OK, say you've perked the top 4.  The N1K2-J, Spitfire MkIX, P-51D and La-7.  The numbers of those aircraft have been halved or more.

Now there is (in you're style of talking) nothing but F4U-1Ds, Fw190D-9s, Bf109G-10s and Typhoons. What do you do?  Perk those?

Now there is nothing but P-47D-30s, Spitfire MkVbs, Ki61-I-KAIs and F6F-5s.  Perk those now?

Where does it stop?  At what point does an aircraft need to be perked?  Your threshold seems the be below 7.5% as the La-7 is less than 7.5% of the aircraft seen in the MA IIRC.

Following that logic you will arrive at a MA that is nearly 50% C.202s,  People just trying to shoot down enough C.202s to earn that awesome perk A6M5b Zero-Sen.

I don't want an arena of C.202s.

"D*mmit Jim! I'm a Dictator, not a DOCTOR!"

The continual appeals of those who want to dictate what other people fly or find enjoyable never cease to amaze and amuse me.

My turn:

I want an arena where I can designate a target with a single keyboard key and then lock his autopilot into straight and level flight with another keypress.  

But I don't want anyone else to have this capability. Just me.

I think this is just as fair and equitable a request as the tear-filled pleas to make the arena more diverse by having everyone fly what a particular player thinks "those other guys" should fly.

StSanta: DIE N1K DWEEB!<
Hazed: Hey look, a chute!
Kirin: It's MINE.
Glassess: I'll race ya
StSanta: Get outta my way, killshooter is on.
<sound of cannons being fired>
Kirin and StSanta: GET OUTTA MY WAY
StSanta: Stupid killshooter. Where's my wing?
Kirin: Probably the same place as my elevators

Aaaah, how I love killing N1K's  

The 190A5 is the most bestest plane out there. Live with it.

[Hristo]

N1K ? The most dangerous thing it can do vs D-9 is to follow it for 2 sectors to the base only to die in ack. It doesn't fight in the same vein as 190 and thus it ain't dangerous.

BTW, bring Ki-84 to AH !! And Spit XIV ! Now that would raise the stakes. And whine factor would skyrocket  .

I'm glad that my inferiority complex is not yet so great that it affects what type of airplane I choose to fly in a video game .
