Title: Machine gun
Post by: glock89 on September 05, 2008, 03:16:27 PM
The USA planes in HTC have 40 secs of ammo with there machine gun most USA planes of WW2 had 20 sec of machine gun ammo the P-40 had 17 secs of ammo the  P-51 P-38 P-47 had around 19 more secs of ammo. So the machine guns firer at a much more slower rate then they did in real life. So im wishing for HTC to fix this problem.

:confused:

All guns in AH fire at their historical rates, other than synchronized guns for which precise numbers are not available, though synchronized Browning and Browning based guns seem to fire too fast.

Where did you get the idea that they fire too slowly?  And how did you time them guns in AH?  I assure you that the US planes have varying firing time durations.

I have tested it many times.  US aircraft do not have 40 seconds of firing time.

You do relize that the gun packages also use different Rates of Fire, right?

because the guns fire slow damnit your retard most USA planes has 20secs of ammo in HTC they got 39 secs of ammo do you see the point im making here. Why dont we make the FW-190 have 2 min of ammo dose that sound right to you no if you dont get this then you are retard.
I have no idea where you are getting your info from, but you are wrong.  The Browning .50s fire at the correct rate in AH.

I looked it up as far as i can tell i have to agree with Karnak. Maybe if you dont like the " retarded US planes" dont fly them.

I believe it is short for "In before the lock".  People basically saying a topic is so off as to be doomed to become locked once an admin sees it.

 What's your ammoload?

 Please don't tell me you're using the "overload" ammunition settings such as the 3400 rounds on P-47s, and then going on to compare that with firing times of standard historical ammunition settings.

 If you are, then I think you owe the posters on this thread on apology.

Trust me Glock89.. if there was ANYTHING wrong with this the experts on this board (there actually is alot of them) would have pointed them out several years ago. This bbs is a place were a 2,5 mhp difference between real life and in-game speed of a plane can generate 30 pages of tech data and arguments.

Me thINks that you might be a tad clueless about the realities here. Average firing bursts were in the range of 2-5 seconds with occasional accounts of a guy "pouring it on" for maybe double that....your not going to overheat an air cooled MG with a burst like that....especially in a plane going at 300+MPH....often in temps in the sub zero range. Could you overheat a barrel with a 30-40 second burst....very possibly, but thats not a reality. Jamming was a very real issue but not do to overheating...

What about the cannon?
Title: Re: Machine gun
Post by: Kweassa on September 07, 2008, 08:22:44 AM

I'm still waiting for an answer. Because, the longer firing durations are a direct result of non-standard ammunition setting. When fired with the more standard amount of ammunition the firing time is down to the levels mentioned in the original post.

Aren't you going to answer me glock?

I want you to confirm, acknowledge this fact, and apologize to people you've insulted people for your own mistakes.

You call having a life means not waiting 40 seconds to test something you started a discussion about?

Unbeliveable......

Oh my God, how could someone that is so inept at spelling or even getting his thought across call any one else a retard.  He obviously has such a great life that he couldn't devote any of it to school and with the level of intelligence that he demonstrated he will probably have to devote the rest of it to a minimum wage demeaning job, or as he would probably spell it yob.  Why get on here and complain or ask questions if you can't even devote the time to build an intelligent thought.
