I don't think the C4B should be removed from the game, it's a hot rod (maybe should be perked in the MWA), and to add more varients of the 110C would highlight just how hot it was, but would not make the 110C lineup as a whole any more desireable to players without the C4B.

There is little difference between the C-4 and the C-4b. The C-4b was modified to carry two bombs on a centerline hardpoint. It was used by Erpro 210 fighter-bomber testing unit during the BoB. The problem with the AH C-4b is that it's really a post-BoB version with uprated engines. Performance wise it is a 1941 C-7.

Anyone complaining that some aircraft is too dominant should do two things.  1:  Contemplate why, if it is so dominant, there aren't as many in the air as Spits, La-7's, P-51's, etc.  2:  Fly that aircraft around a bit to see for yourself.

If you don't do 1 and 2, you come off sounding foolish.

Quoted for truth. End of line.

Anybody claiming the 110 is uber is just plain ignorant.

There's a 4th level, Juggler.  Those that can do it in nearly any plane in the set.  There's only a tiny percentage that can get into any fighter/attack plane and keep the skill level up without missing a beat.



I think the 3rd lvl folks "in my triad" encompass this MIR, which I might add YOU are clearly in this group whom I strove to emulate :aok. Since all fights follow the same basic "manoeuvring path" the variables being obvious, then the 3rd lvl folks have a firm grasp on this concept no matter what plane they use. I'll give you an example: I always thought you to be one of the best 38 sticks in the game, but I ignorantly kept you in the "38 box" along with the likes of Soulyss, Del, Twin etc etc. Then I encountered you in a P51B and thought, Wow, he worked that very nicely. It dawned on me that the "concept" and "application" of manoeuvre was universal and only the experience of players could wrench the very best out of them. To think Grizz or Kappa are only good in K4s would be incredibly foolish and detrimental!

Hope all is great with you MIR  :salute :salute

Many Bf 110 C-4/B (as well as Bf 109 E-4/B) should have received the DB 601Aa engine due to having more power at lower alt = better take-off characteristics with bombs. + more speed at the low-alt run homewards after dropping their bombs.

I flew the 110C for about 4 months - it's a capable plane because people let their guards down and don't expect much - it was easy to suprise people.

The only problem flying EW planes is that none of them can catch the typical MA ride. I'd say well over 3/4 of my fights are the results of catching a runner. In a EW plane, you either spend the entire flight dodging orbital passes or shortening the flight chasing them into ack, rarely will you ever get the chance to show off the plane's potential.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

You need to stock up on a lot of E to catch ppl.
