The ki84 is a definite top tier and qualifies as 'easy mode' to me, just as the spit16.

You aren't serious?

"flouting"......

pfft


an equal E and ALT fight is "my way".......... :headscratch:

hahahahaha you are to funny....

so I take the excuses you already came up with for losing as a sign of your true thoughts that you know you stand NO chance against a KI in a even fight.

and obviously you have no clue how to fight if you think every fight is the same.

that is the exact opposite of the truth......truth is NO 2 fights are the same, as a matter of fact no fight is the same...thats why dog fighting so awesome...




Im sure I would learn something (you tend to learn more when ya loose than win imho :D ) but it would be boreing as hell to me.  There's only so many ways in a little amount of time to dodge a KI84's bullets while in a Dora.  And if I fight to the Dora's strengths I abuse your time, running and extending are fair game in the MA but not what the DA is about.

Now, if we instead both dueled in KIs then we're talkign a different ball game, and indeed it get a lot less boreing and more entertaining as I can be agressive and CC (without bleedign away speed or giving you a greater advantage everytime I kiss the elevators a little, like with the Dora vs your KI in a knife fight).

I had time last night to adjust my stick scaleing (best one I've come up with all week too) and then do a couple afk bomber sorties while getting laundry done, I'm heading outa town tonight and tomorrow (also found out wend I'll most likely be in Reno next month and Texas in October).  Look for me late tomorrow night or Sunday and we can pick this up.

The ki84 is a definite top tier and qualifies as 'easy mode' to me, just as the spit16.

The KI is a strong fighter, it's only glaring weakness is it can't take a beating as well as it can give it (absorb damage).  It's not easy-mode though to fight and kill in, although it is definetley not hard to fly.  It stiffens up pretty good at high speeds.  It is not as well balanced as other jap fighters and can "stick" in stalls for a bit.  A god pilot in one is a very scary thing, but it is not immune to pilot error (or clumbsyness) in combat.

IMO Ki vs Ki you would be fighting Ink's fight. A lot of people fly them, but aren't a lot who fly them really well. Several of the CH guys fly them well, especially LoedeCH. Never dueled him, but have had a ton of good MA fights with him. Ink and Slash I have dueled a lot in their Ki's. Anyway those are my top 3 Ki84 pilots.

the Ki84 is the TOP tier plane :D  just not as easy mode as the spits....I would fly the spits more if they could take more punishment, but they are very fragile compared to the KI.




only the spits and LA7 give it a good fight....I would include the K4 but it takes an exceptional K4 stick whereas the spits and LA a mediocre stick can give it a fight....well The LA needs a better stick also...but very few fly the LA the way it should be flown...Dedalos comes to mind....he knows that LA and he understands E and angles....he is a hard fight in the LA.

this tells me you have very little time in the Ki.....

it is one of the toughest fighters ingame...I am talking in the ability to absorb damage.....it is second only to the 47's and maybe the hellcats....but I think it can take more then a hell cat....and sometimes I think it can take more then the 47's.
