Title: Nikki had a sex change!?
Post by: Wimp on January 20, 2000, 12:52:00 PM
Looks like the N1K has had it's balls cut off.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)

Is it just a bug or did we lose 2 guns on purpose?

I heard last night that you could hit the \ and the second set of guns would appear but I could never get them back.

Could someone PLEASE let me know.

It still has 4 guns.

They are grouped in pairs, both fired by the primary fire key(F), instead of one group on primary, the other on secondary(B) as before.

So only 2 guns can fire at a time, but by pressing \ you cycle between the two groups.

Gremlins did it!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Which leaves us with the question....How come the nicki only gets to fire two guns at a time? Hopefully this bug ain't catching. I would think that if the 190 gets"sick" there won't be enough room on the bbs for all the posts. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

It's a bug that will be fixed in the next version.

N1K2 still is enough to kill good fights  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Turns way too good, has incredible cannons that breaks from 900 yards with one hit / part, its fast... it climbs fast... its DAMN tough to chew up...
I Do say that P-51 easier to down than N1K2...

900 yards? Possibly net lag, Fishu? I got my F4U's wing chewed off by a N1K (coincidence I think  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) ) a few days ago at D1.2... asked him how the hell he got his gunnery that good  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) He said it was just 500 yards on his FE.. serious connection problems have been reported recently, you sure it's not a case of them?

Thanks for the answer Pyro.

Fishu I'm sure it was net lag.

I fly the N1k alot and I never fire until they are within 600 unless it's a HO(which I try never to do)then I start firing around D1.

Sorry guys, but I am aware of netlag and I did count it...

I were faster than he was, he were stalling about the time he got that hit, I were extending quite good speed, then I hear almost no ping and part flies off..

Also this is couple times verified to be +800 yards hit by the enemy (2-4 hits and 1-2 pieces flies off)

Usually needs to be Co E or enemy has to be faster to make distance look further than guy in his FE is.

For this case, minimum distance was 800 yards -> maximum.

Fishu - I have to agree with you.  I have gotten numerous kills at d800-d900 and even grater with N1K.  I like long range shots set convergence to max and N1K is best long range shooter in AH.  My stats in N1kK are much better than any other plane - period. I still perfer to fly Spit (I know - I know). I am a confirmed TnB flyer and only in the Spit or N1k do I have a chance.  In all other planes I am just a flying target.  Back to your post.  Yes N1K's can and do kill at D900.
