Lusches AH Stats Megathread

[Karnak]

Meteor saw combat, the P-51H did not.

P-51H is the only plane that HTC ever mentioned possibly adding that didn't see combat.

[Brooke]

We do need this, though.  I'm pretty sure it was a major element in the defense of Nizhny Novgorod.

So Lusche, did we see an uptick in P47 usage last month?

A first glance at the P-47 shares of all fighter's kills+deaths doesn't show anything significant:



Well, relatively spoken there is a somewhat notable increase of P-47-D11 K+D. But plane models with such a low overall usage have a greater USAGE amplitude over time, as very few pilots (as few as one sometimes) can make a difference there.

Bet the 109G6 has seen a downturn since Debrody stopped flying it

Wow, it is worse than I suspected. The N+M usage completely over shadows the total of the D's. The M alone is about the same of all the others including the N combined...
This is just wrong. The M should get a token perk tag of 1-3.

Just to be clear, I am a P-47 fan and does not have a problem with P47M performance. I just hate it when a very insignificant model/sub-variant becomes the norm in this game (see unperked F4U-C & 3 cannon La7s).

But planes never have been perked in AH just because there is a lot of them, or not in line with historical production numbers. If so, P-51D would have to be perked (about 10 times! more usage than the B), the 109K would be (completely overshadowing all other 109's, especially the G-6), and most certainly the Il-2 with the 37mm option (quite rare in RL, but almost exclusively used in AH).

How do they say? "We are not simulating WW2"...

[moot]

At least, not in the MA.

Lusches, I really don't play for score...just for fun, I see you have me as most kills in B17 in 2012...just wonderinghow many other years this is true?<S>

I wonder that as well 

I had only done the same compilation for the 2010 and 2011, and in both years it was farflite leading the list with 3003 and 2956 kills respectively.

Thank you Sir <S>

random chart of the day

Three new GV and CraterMA being up in LW. The outcome was clear, but the actual numbers are still impressive

From yesterday ~13:00 CEST (about 4 hours before the update went live) to today ~18:00 CEST (about one hour ago), the LW arena witnessed only
- 4,474 air to air kills but at the same time
- 14,453 ground to ground kills!


Here's the graph showing kill distribution for that time:

[Tank-Ace]

Holy crap  !!!

That's..... Insane.

[JohnnyHeelz]

Not really, it's SOP.  New items added always cause a "rush" to those birds........ This particular intro, was GV heavy, and as such, the data reflects the "let me try let me try" thinking.

This particular intro, was GV heavy, and as such, the data reflects the "let me try let me try" thinking.  

The biggest part is still caused by the map. CraterMA has always excessively high GV kills and deaths, because much more players than usual are being founb in GVs there and the average GV kills/hour are skyrocketing in the crater.

Terrains are the limting factor for the Gv game in general. Unlike A2A activity, GV usage (and even more k/h) is very much varying with the maps.
