Title: Spitfire XVI jabo & air combat
Post by: Rob52240 on January 16, 2012, 10:02:09 PM

I threw this one together from 2 sorties over the weekend

If only it carried heavy enough bombs to kill a hanger...

Well, it's a Spitfire and if you ask me, you've done well with the 3 bombs it can carry  :aok

Not like 2x 1000lb bombs on other fighters will take out the hangar anyway.

I find it horribly annoying that you kept looping the same voice segment over and over and over and over and over and over..... Just let the sound play out. The footage was okay, but the sound detracted.

its  a flaw in the film shots tool.  It doesn't sync vox/range to where it should be.  It always starts with what was said at the beginning of the sortie no matter when in the sortie you are.

I find it well annoying too.  I also can't hear it in the film viewer, only after I record the film viewer.

What are you talking about?  Spits don't kill flaks, flaks kill spits.

What are you talking about?  Spits don't kill flaks, flaks kill spits.

Spitfire mk XVI was designed for air to ground operations. It's engine is tuned for best performance at low altitudes and it's wings are also clipped for best performance at low altitudes. In addition unlike other Spitfire models they gave it three hardpoints.

The reason why you say that flaks kills spits is because in AH most people who fly Spits are noobs and don't know that they should stay away from ack, or when attacking it they don't know how to properly do it without getting killed. Given that both people have equal skill level, the one that is flying a Spit will kill any wirble or ack gun. You don't even need bombs to do it, with those 2x20mm canons you can easily take out the turret on the wirble.
