OH, so the puny ammo load isn't a weakness? The Yak9u is a great plane, yes. It does have weaknesses. Its a hard plane to fly, and fly well, unless you know what you're doing. When you do, its great. It has very little ammo, if memory serves me right- 200 rounds total. Doesn't make for long trips, eh?
You guys are missing my point here. There /are/ ways to overcome the Yak9u 'Advantage'. There has to be. There is a way to overcome every problem placed before you without whinning to get it moved.
Besides, what makes the game better. Flying around and winning every single time you go into a dog-fight, or flying around and getting to go against a plane/pilot that outclasses you a little- forcing you to step up to the plate and try a little harder, and in doing so become a better pilot?
If all we ever flew against were people and planes that were perfectly matched in every single way, we all flew at the exact same altitude and used the same moves, you would get bored without a doubt.
By taking out the yak9u, you take away an element of interest. It isn't the same without the yak in there, I know that. Putting it back would make a difference. A big one.
Were all these air wars /fair/? Didn' think so.
