The 110 doesn't compare to the Ju88.

EDIT: I wouldn't be opposed to some sort of restrictions on the 110C use such as dictating that it must be used for bomber escort or something like that, but then the same thing should be applied to the spitfires and hurricanes. They shouldn't take off until they had definitive contact and had to climb up to engage targets. As it stands the 100 octane update has made them mini-monsters when used unhistorically... you know... kind of like how the use of the 110c makes it more effective than how it was in the real BOB?

Exactly!

Booooo  Hissssss!!!   :devil

+1  and lets also remove the 110's or limit them to the first 3 hours segment along with the stukas.  whilst we are at it.   

I don't want to be engaging BnZ 110s in the middle of a 109 vs Hurri spit furball over London.

I can handle 3x109's at a time left handed but throw in a high speed pass by a tough hitting 110 in the middle of a stall buzzing turn with what might aswell be un-limited ammo in this setup and it's just not cricket. 

I just think from all the books I've read on the subject not many times do I hear how the 110 made the difference and won all of the dogfights with many oak leaves and iron crosses dished out to all of the multiple kill aces in the awesome zerstorer.    :bolt:

Anyway nuff said on this personal vendetta.   I'll kill them all the same.  :D

August can't get here soon enough...





I doubt the June scenario will have anywhere this kind of enthusiasm when it's announced. It will probably be something retarded with B-29's.

LOL Bruv unhappy and {mildly} whining that he might get swamped by an (uber?) bf110c in a melee?  Would bring tears of joy to my eyes, and a sense of proper retribution to the universe.  :rock

just making sure the designers know that the 110 is a valid concern regarding everyones historical immersion.

After the ju88s  are completely removed.   :aok

Just out of curiosity, what do you think is responsible for the difference in the game? Is it a flight model issue, or did the LW actually have a decent plane but lousy doctrine? Or is it one of those cases where tens of thousands of hours of in-game experience gives us insight into the game version far beyond what anyone had in the RL one and that makes more difference in this plane than some others? I don't fly the EW plane set enough to know much about it in the game.
