Title: I haven't seen one of these in a game
Post by: flakbait on July 14, 2000, 12:44:00 AM

...ever. All I've seen of the Me 163 Komet was in a WB 1.x BETA pic on some site. Other than that I've yet to see this aircraft in any game. The 262 is more or less all over the place, but if you want it added go right ahead. Add it in as a perk plane. Same goes for the 163; throw it in as a perk plane. Tie the smoke effect in with the throttle setting and get ready for the ultimate 1944 rollercoaster!!

Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe had it, not that that would be considered a sim by modern standards.

B-17 II is also going to have it as a flyable.

It would be useful for getting at those strato buffs though, wouldn't it.

B-17 II won't have the Komet, they canned it.

The plane, not the game.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

See www.b17flyingfortress.com (http://www.b17flyingfortress.com)  - the official B-17 II website.

Ive flown the 163 in wb 1.11, twas a real squeak to take off, you needed full right rudder, full left ailerons and the elev down just to move on the Runway. Was fun as hell when u get in the air tho  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) too bad they didnt model the 30mms on it.
