haha   I was referring to a few posts where a few old heads were talking about how the 190a5 used to be HIGHLY competitive in a turn fight - as it should be (not just in an angles fight)
   Then something happened to nerf its turning abilities.   :O  <-my shocked face   :rolleyes:                This may have been a several year old thread, when was the 190 FM and graphics last changed?

The funniest thing, or perhaps the  :noid iest thing is,   EVERY SINGLE 190 a8 in the Luftwaffe was approved 1.65 ata within a week or 2 of delivery!

Therefore, "They be stealing my bucket"!!

The Kanonenvogel had 6 rounds per pod, this is not even close to being open for debate.

Ah, ok. And wasn't the A5 cleared for 5.4 ata, as opposed to the 4.7 (I think) in game? And wouldn't mind seeing a 1.82 ata A9 either  :noid.

I don't know what they were talking about, but the turn performance has dramatically IMPROVED with the 190s since the update. It was a bad plane to fly. You could snap-stall and invert yourself before you knew it if you so much as banked at 230mph... Anything below 230 was nearly impossible. That's just not logical nor realistic and doesn't match historical records. The problem was not so much one of TURNING per se, but that you could not CONTROL the plane anywhere near best turning conditions. HTC recomputed how they did the airflow over all wings, the entire system was redone, and now we get a much more controllable 190.


Mind you, it's not that it turns any tighter -- it's still one of the widest turn radii in the game -- it's that you can at least get to that point now. It used to be 2x worse! Compared to its former self it's night and day better. Compared to other planes, it's still a Fw :)

sorry, but no! In a 1V1 the 109 may be superior, but in all other situations the P51 is the best ride.

i know, it fits your "style" perfectly.
It makes you able to come high, dive, then run very fast to one direction. Such a great fun  :aok

It's even more fun catching the pompous luftweenies off guard and blowing them out of the sky before they can complain.  :aok

Best of all is when you outfight an F4U and a Seafire in a Ju-87.

ever tried one? I like the 109 but the gun package and high speed maneuvrability makes it a poor plane to clear other people's six. I feel the same way about the spitfire....the fw190 on the other hand lacks options when you are tangled and not named pervert.

In his world there are two types of players:
-noobs, baby seals, little girls etc etc. The ones he can pick.
-cheaters, haxxors, "Irish nuns" etc etc    The ones who are killing him frequently.
Glad i earned the "friggen muppet" status.

Dream on, the fw190A8 was a pig and will always be, even with a few hudred pounds less. Switch to a 190A5 if you're doing anything but hoing bombers!
