262 whine
« on: April 15, 2011, 08:29:43 PM »
Ok just flying around in the MA in the 262 and there seemed to be quite a few flaws and bugs while in it. Im not sure how to post the video but I shot two targets one flown by jdod on the deck and the other by oboe airborne that weren't awarded to me..... Also I killed two right before I was killed by spatXII in what looks like a ho. The thing that pisses me off is that I never even saw where I was shot from till I reviewed the film. I was even more pissed when I saw he was practically HO with me and I never saw him in my sights. I will post a video for everyones review and you will see I wasnt given credit for a shot on JDOD while he was on the deck and OBOE in a p39. I already know what everyone is going to say about the HO hit from spat. I would have seen him for sure and there is no way I woulda let someone HO me like that.

I don't remember ever loosing a HO to a 262 and if I see one I will HO it (even in a C-47  :bolt:). That is the best way to kill them because usually you can't catch them.

As for that other thing....  Who is to say both of those non-awarded pilots had pilot wounds or the killing pilot shot the stink out of them, and all you might have done is add a couple more damage points... Enough to knock a wing off?  Many things can be the cause of awarded kills!   :salute

A few years back I compressed a diving 262 and crashed into a landing lancaster.

It was a few years back, if I even recorded it I don't have it saved on this computer. It would take me some time to find it.

Perhaps we can just ask someone to recreate it for us in the MA...

Wow ... now there is some strong evidence that the 262 is bug/flaw ridden for sure.

HT !!!! ... jump right on this please.
