That's a tough one.  You go Sir!  :aok

I figure it should be easier than the time it took to learn to shoot over my squadies canopy  :D

I'm no expert in the K4 but I really can't hit anything directly behind an enemy. Put me 400 off and in a turn bang bang.

That's why the K4 is a little more challenging of a plane even though it has such great performance. Players have to learn how to set up crossing shots and deflection shots which is a skill that is practiced.

Setting up for the second merge after the red counters the first merge.

You do that before and then while executing your first merge

  Every time HTC has changed versions there is a period of relearning the gunnery.  :joystick:
           I think the move to AH3 has been the most dramatic change. Can't say that I even see my tracers anymore but have to shoot on instinct. That may be a good thing.  :airplane:

I think our east coast bullets simply dont travel as far before running our of giddyup and dropping off

Flying over or around the trees. Still a bit tricky for me.

I have to admit that flying close to the trees and doing maneuvers close to the ground near trees, is a bit more challenging in AH 3.  I do think the trees are much better, but there a ton!!!! I'd he happy to see more random civilian non shooting towns getting filled in in the the terrain. There are a ton of trees haha.

Im trying to imagine what will happen in the next 30 seconds after the merge and put myself into position to win.

As in ID his plane, consider mine, the strengths and weaknesses of each, and imagine the outcome of tactics before they happen.

Just hop in one of the ridiculously modeled Spit 16's, Yak 3's, or La7's.  Will make anyone good.  Do the un-realistic stick stir flop when someone is on your six.  Exploiting the flaws of the game in AH3 is worse than ever.  Gaming the game=ruining it for everbody.  More like play station every day.

New to the game, or just the forum?
