YYYYEEEEEEES!!!!!

Happy Holidays all, I will be skipping this event because I just don't care for the 262 in ANY event or on the main for that matter, I am sure my squad will be there just not me. Good luck with the event.

That's a first for me...
Care to explain? 12 262's a frame is enough for you to call it quits for a tour of FSO?

I would have to agree, I absolutely hate the suck and blows for these events. Never cared for them much in scenarios either. But it is what it is. Other than that this one looks to be another fun event. :rock

TA-152 just as dangerous in this setup as the 262...
-
the 262's are going to be pretty much a non factor in fights...no one is going to use them like they do in the ma's...yeah a few people might get picked off in a fight here and there, but the ta-152s will be more dangerous.
-
Boxboy, I assure you that the 262 are not much of a threat. My squad encounter them a few times in FSO and we shot down a few. It is the 152, 109-K, G will be more of a issue.
-
Actually this next event will be axis for our squad in the rotation, it is just a personal thing with me. I just don't care for them or the bomber jet, IMO they were so few that I feel they have no place in the game (not to argue I know there alot of you that love em, just a pet peve of mine).
-
I don't do FSO on a routine basis, but this one seems fairly lopsided to me. Not because of the jets, most people don't know what they are doing in them anyway.
I respect the work the CMs do for scenarios and other events, but I had to say it.
edit: you could even the odds by giving the Soviets the massive advantage they had in men and equipment as they had historically.

actually have to agree with that...same goes for a few other aircraft and gv's that exist in the game.

doesn't look that lopsided...with the exception of the jets...the las and yaks can out manuever anything the axis have available...altitude performance could be argued but...if i had my druthers for this one, i'd be allied

Oh, dont be like that. Take it in the buttocks like a man.
I am super excited. Hopefully Axis CiC gives Kommando Nowotny (262 squad in WW2) 1 frame with jets. Last time we flew jets in FSO we got 24 kills, 7 pilots.

It's eastern front, what do you expect? :)
Why do you think we only did one Eastern Front FSO in 2010? :)

Was it one of you guys that got 19 kills from killing b-26 on the runway and rearmed pad about.......2 years ago?

325th VFG updated

no, we've been around less than a year. although that does sound hilarious. <SHALOM>
-
The same people always get the 262's...

It was, especially when there are snapshots! :rofl

Sorry, it was two years ago.

In FSO does the hardness of an object change from what is seen for a terrain off-line as the default?
For example on the Germany terrain the Bomber Hgr default is 2.7812 x 1000 pounds. During this event will the hardness change? I'm curious on how much damage a single 234 can really do.
-
Unless otherwise specified FSO uses default MA hardness.
-

Well a smart CiC assigns 262s to a squad that knows how to fly them, and flies them on a normal basis in the MA.

true...i can barely get one in the air so it would be a waste to have me in one for fso...

VF15 Updated!!!
:salute
If considered, we have some good Me262 & Ar234 pilots! :airplane:

"should have been a milk run" FSO they assigned me, perdweeb, and some muppets to 262's. worked out well because we could scout and eliminate mossies quickly. that was until the no fly zone, delayed axis takeoff time, allied air spawns, and unlimited altitude for bombers made it a challenge.

Many squadrons are willing to learn a new plane if given the chance. After all, it's just another tool to use to accomplish the same goals.
-
I will be willing to bet that some pilots' get 262's for more than 1 frame.. That is why I went allied this time. After begging the last time...
O well, thats how it goes.....
I hope that the cic's spread them out for ALL squads to fly for the axis...:bolt:
-
The last time I got a 262 in an FSO was alot of fun! :P
-
LOL notice that after the usual "262's aren't that effective" statements how many of you want the 262 and 234 bomber. They are effective and IMHO game breakers because they are modeled correctly and had they entered the war earlier might have changed the out come, by some historians recounts. AH only models airframes and NOT historical situations which is why FSO is attempted, but with the tools at hand it is VERY difficult to come up with a balanced senario, which is why I opted out. I don't mean any disrespect to the guys that work VERY hard to put these things on, I just see this as a very hard issue to tackle.
-
Please be sure to adjust your squad numbers if you anticipate having a low turnout.
Thanks,
