Title: RV-8 available in the Melee Arena?
Post by: eddiek on November 02, 2019, 07:10:39 PM: Just ran across one, wasn't sure if I witnessed someone in a nefarious act, or just a fluke.
Fellow countryman killed him, I got the assist and the name.
Just wondering.................

If not it should be.

I can imagine the RV-8 would be a good tank spotter.

Post by: 800nate800 on November 05, 2019, 07:26:15 PM: it was cooler when it was a easter egg and limited to the *blows dust off it* training area
Title: Re: RV-8 available in the Melee Arena?
Post by: Mongoose on November 05, 2019, 08:14:25 PM: I thought it was only available in the Offline Practice arena until I saw this post. I tried it out in the main. I think it will make a good scout, and look pretty funny flying around with all those serious warplanes.
