Ty guys. IT was Hell of a job to accomplish when you have so many great Players in Aces high. After the 8 years of playing in the MA i finally accomplished it. :salute
-
Grats Rud3!! and we'll get in the DA soon.. been a long time comin.
-
mmm.... no tactical flying using attack vs fighter mode... no über jet dweebing... almost exclusively blue planes... :headscratch:
I couldn't pull that off :old:
:salute

Way to go dood

You don't think F4Us are easy? :rofl Let me say last time I had this discussion I just upped one and landed 9 kills just to prove a point.

for the average joe...no they are not easy.
spit 16 that is easy...huge difference.
-
You don't think F4Us are easy?
No I don't.
Very capable? Dangerous opponent? Yes, absolutely.
But (with the possible exception of the -4 and C, but I'm not even sure about that), they are not easy. They need an more experienced pilot than may other fighters to bring out the best of them.

Do it again. Fly a -1 all month. lol.

I put them in the same category as LA, Spits, and N1ks. That's just me, it's all about it's attributes which make it the best BnZ plane in the game.
No I don't.

1A is more capable as a fighter then the C

I'm sticking to Lufthansa this month but I will next month, maybe I'll get 100 hours of play time too....
-

The main differences between the F4U and those are:
- Much less power translating into a significant disadvantage in acceleration and sustained climb rate. Much more than any of those you gotta have to watch your E.
- The main asset of the F4U, the flaps, need pilot experience. It's too easy to 'overdeploy' them and waste your E. Then your lack of acceleration can make you an easy prey.
It's all fine as long as you got the steam, but for Jon Doe it's easy to lose it and difficult to regain.

F4Us are indeed easy.

that is you..you are not average...
we are talking average player here in terms of "easy to use"
I will go so far as to say the term "easymode" can only used for Vets....someone who comes to AH with no prior knowledge or flight sim experience....NO plane is easy mode even the spits....
once you have been fighting.... I mean actually fighting..... not make a living ganging and vulching....once you have been doing that for a good 2 years most planes are easy mode....once you have been doing it for a few years to 10 they all are....
and that's why it does not matter what you or Junky can do in the F4U...and the fact that you guys can make it lethal in no way shape or form makes that plane in the hands of someone inexperienced lethal.
the average player is better then the noob....but stands NO chance against the fighting Vet in any plane match-up (unless its an extreme difference)

So we are talking about guys who have a general understanding of how E works, so I'm right.
A hog has the same attributes as say a P51/Dora but can turn with the best of them(Spits/KI/109), yea it doesn't have acceleration but it really isn't that much of a burden in the MA.
I wouldn't say it's as easy a an LA or Spit but in my book it comes before N1K for easy mode(N1Ks generally are the HO every chance crowd)
BTW Rud3boi, fun F4U-1 fights last night, trying to call me out drunk wasn't very smart if you were going for the W :aok
-
The -1 ain't easy mode.
-
Hogs are easy mode fly the p39 :devil
-
LMAO, junky i was actually drunk lol. I drank a whole bottle of grey goose while flying last night. BTW F4u-1 isn't easy. It takes patients and timing with that plane. Its very slow. I would say easy mode are Spits, 109, yaks, n1k.

Well like a lot of the arguments against the F4U being EZ mode, poor acceleration...needs flaps management...the KI84 they will say it's a bit more unstable. K4 has a similar argument...everything is great about that plane but it has bad views and the gun is hard to learn...still easy mode in my book.
There are easy mode attributes to all planes...Mossy is consider a harder plane to fly but I would say it's over the nose views with its awesome guns make it a lot easier.

Neither the F4U or any 109 is an easy mode plane. The fact that it is hard to stay fast and not get picked in both planes makes them difficult to fly. The 109s cannot dive, huge crutch, the F4U doesn't gain speed easily, huge crutch. The level of SA in both of these planes is significantly greater than many other easier to fly planes. On top of that, you have to learn the fighting styles of both planes and be successful at them. The fighting styles for both planes takes some time to learn. Shooting 50 cals is a lot different than shooting a 30 mil. You have to employ different fighting styles to use the guns to their most effective means. In the 109 you have to slash attack and make quick angle deflection shot. Most haven't learned that. In the F4U you have to gain the 6 and sprey a 2 burst. In either of the planes, you can get picked easily by not shooting the guy down quickly enough and continuing to engage even though other con's are on their way. This makes it difficult to get out of the fights thus makes it hard to be successful it. Most of the time in either plane, you have to make 2 or 3 slower passes and kill your speed to get the kill, this is bad when 2 la7s are on the way to get you.

M2 vs Mk108 your argument there is wrong, if Bustr shows up he will show you that the MK108 has some of the worst qualities in the game(I believe the only weapon with a worse drop in the Hurri 2 Ds 40mm) M2 > MK108 any day...now as far as fighting styles, slashing attacks, saddling opponents...I used to say aircraft has something to do with that but in the end it's all ACM, I can use slashing attacks in a hog and clip different parts(if not shoot down completely first pass because M2s are very lethal) and I can saddle an opponent in a K4 and put a tator in his butt, ACM is all about maneuvering your aircraft in a way to kill an opponent....Why I think planes are easy mode is because they do certain flight characteristics in a certain way which makes ACM easier to do in the MA. (F4U has a fast and maneuverable dive rate so BnZ is VERY EASY to do in it)
Most of your arguments can be said for the same planes you and others call easy mode.. "you can get picked easily by not shooting the guy down quickly enough" That applies to all planes.....
No you don't have to slow down "most of the time" if you are slowing down the problem isn't the plane...it's the pilot. Now are you slowing down because your trading speed for ALT?
Views in both aircraft do make it harder for SA(Did they update the views in the hogs??? I feel like they are better these days") but look at the LA7 compared to a K4, their views are comparable.
109s do not dive well.....rgr tracking(I fly them enough) but it's acceleration does make up for it a bit
F4Us don't accelerate that well.....rgr tracking but the thing dives like a boss and can maneuver at high speed (Spit 16 can't do that)

The 51 and Dora are only easy-mode if you look at them from a survivability standpoint. It still takes quite a decent amount of skill to beat a competent opponent in a more maneuverable aircraft 1v1 in those. Surviving in the MA vs winning 1v1 are two different things.
The Yak-3 isn't really easy-mode by any means. It's a very capable aircraft, but you have to know how to fly it. Most Yaks are simply annoying at best because most players can't fly them. I've yet to see anyone in game who actually flies it well (aside from Kruel).

Chanzz will give you a nice fight unsuspectingly in a yak in the MA. He pops in and out on occassion. One of the few who have flown it as their main ride for years.
I don't like the one 20 mm gun scenario in the MA, not my favorite plane at slow speeds. It is also a great fight for my 109.
I don't consider it a "newb" plane either.

Junky, no where in there did I say the 30mm was better than the 50cal armament, but you have to use the guns in different ways, which makes them difficult to use. Slash attack in the F4U with 50 cals is worse than slash attack with 30mm because not enough 50s hit the plane. The key to using the 30mm is to get your enemy stalled and slow passing right in front of you, to get into this position makes your plane easily pickable but does take ACM to aquire the position. Also you have to be very keen on your SA. With the 50 cals, you want to sprey their wings off as they turn nose down or up, and then extend away. This is a tough shot for a 30mm shottaker to make.
In both planes, it is easy to lose E and get jumped on by getting too slow during your engagement because you couldn't take down the plane on the first pass. It mostly comes down to the pilot. But given the circumstances I'm describing which ballistics work best for the type of fighting style you need to use to fly these planes.
-
The Yak-3 isn't really easy-mode by any means.
One of my rare kills of Batfink was in a Yak3. If that can happen - if the Oldman can kill Batfink in a fair fight - then Yak3 is easy-mode.
I have confirmed that in the (rare) subsequent cases when I felt that flying such a plane was warranted because the home base was under attack. It's an easy plane, very nice to fly, limited guns (but still better than the 202's WWI armament), should still fly rings around most other aircraft.

My first time flying it was in KOTH and I won the round, it's a plug and play like the Brewster, anyone can jump in a make it doing something special(YES I think the Brewster is easy)
And you are correct for survivability, but that can also be said about a lot of aircraft.

Must have read it wrong, apologies. But I still disagree on the hog being EZ mode, and I understand what your saying about setting up different shots.
If anyone would like to run some tests with me in the DA, we can figure this out in about 30 1v1s.
I'll fly a F4U-1
You fly all the other popular aircraft, we will time the length and records of the fights. Then I will fly a N1K, LA7, Spit 16(An easy mode bird) and do the same. Then I will fly something else like a Mossy, 152, P51B and do the same thing.
I'm betting that the F4U-1 will be a lot closer(Numbers wise) to an LA/N1K/Spit then a 152(Probably my main ride).

Well if I can get 5 min to actually play longer I'm down for the DA to experiment. However, the hogs are great 1v1 and I think they are amazing turners, however, vs a 152 in the same fight in the DA, the 152 will easily gain the high advantage, which is not a spot the f4u likes to be in. The reason I think the F4U is not an easy mode plane is because 70% of the time you are flying in the defensive position. Any plane where you mostly fly defensively is a tough ride, that is why I feel the same about 109s. 109s are one of the best defensive planes in the game, that is why I like to fly it so much. The F4U is great at turning, but you have to know how to turn it properly, you can't just whip it around, the 1Hog gets into a nasty upside down flat spin. In a 1v1 with a plane on equal speed the F4U is deadly. But flying the the MA with high BnZers around you makes the plane difficult because you can't always outrun the horde chasing you down behind you, and if you give up to much speed and alt to kill a plane, your chances of getting chased down increase substantially. If you don't keep your E alt advantage in the F4U, you have to fly defensively becuase you cannot simply extend away and that's why it is a tough plane in the MA.
Plus you are experienced junky, so when you say it is easy to do this or that, you are comparing that to your skill level and not perceived from a inexperienced player who is still learning how the planes fly.

this right here.... :aok
that "experiment" wont prove a single thing...
Im sorry junky but anyone who compares the F4us to the 16 and says they are the same.......well to be nice...that is straight up laughable.
the responsiveness of the 16 is so far above the F4U's they are not in the same ballpark....the 16 you can make mistake after mistake,pretty much where ever you point the nose it goes....it rolls insane..... climbs insane....doesn't need flaps to fight ...can slow down and regain speed at will.....can fight with a full tank of gas and still dominate....the only thing that the F4U's have that the 16 lacks is ability to take punishment.(which IMO is the 16's one major weakness)
its one of the only planes I was able to kill 6 of 7 in a 7vs1.....it is the epitome of easy mode...someone who has no clue how to use ACM can just point his nose and follow someone around....quite easily
you certainly can not do that in the F4U's as a newer guy without loads of experience.....

I didn't say a F4U was as good as a Spit16...actually I listed my list of what I thought was easy mode.
That experiment will give a good look at it, of course it won't be completely accurate but it can give a better estimate.

didn't you lump it with the 16?(which would be saying they are both easy mode)
if you didn't then I apologize thought you did.

didn't you lump it with the 16?(which would be saying they are both easy mode)
if you didn't then I apologize thought you did.
yes I consider them both Easy mode, I do however have a few planes in front of the F4U as far as being easier....Spit 16/La7/P51

sorry but the F4Us just don't belong on that list.
A true test to see what is easier....take 30 new/non vets.... have 10 fights half in 16 half in F4U's.....after switch around and do the same number of fights with the people who were in the 16s in the F4Us'.
you are kidding yourself if you think the F4U has even a tiny chance of getting the majority of victories.

I NEVER SAID IT WOULD, I said it would be closer to a Spit 16 then say a Mossy
Your coming at me with this "your kidding yourself" and "just laughable" but you aren't reading anything I have posted.

Agreed. F4U is easy, but not necessarily as easy as a Spit 16 or Ki-84.

dude you are the one that says it is "easy mode"......
you lump it with the 16 as easy mode....so its easy mode...just not as easy mode as the 16.....
if it was as easy as you say it is....which you did say it is easy mode....it should have at least a chance against an easy mode ride...
wouldn't it :headscratch:
I just dont understand how you can say one thing then say that is not what you said...or I am reading it wrong....
its easy mode or it isn't.

After a beat down today flying the hog into a glorifing hoard of reds, I mistakinly didn't get enough alt, and got pwned by a Brewster and a yak. I had almost got the yak and he was able to extend away with a missing elevator. I was rather slow and couldn't get away from the brew. We tangoed a bit and the yak came back to help out. The fact that the yak out ran me twice to get away from me, and that I was not able to get a way from the brew, makes the F4U not an easy ride in the MA. I was not flying well today and it just goes to show you have to fly it properly in order to really be successful in it. Its not just a plane anyone can up and be good at it right away.
And just to note. I feel like I'm flying an Extra 300 when i'm in the spit16

WTG Rud3! :salute
You should join the #1 squadron and fly the game with the most elite pilots in Aces High, Elite Top Aces +1 Mexican.
Is this what we're calling POTW now? And how rude to Semp, too.

Don't be trying to hijack the Hell Hounds CO now. That is the only guy in the game that has taken the time to teach me a few things and I've been playing forever.
