Title: Thank You Merv!
Post by: Dadtallica on February 13, 2024, 05:56:22 PM
Not what I expected to be posting but when he’s right he’s right.  :cheers:

He mentioned in one thread some time back that he uses a mouse to shoot at us all and its benefits. So it made me try it. Well you know what? It’s so much smoother and precise than the stick, for me anyway.

Past few weeks I have had such a better time hitting planes with my guns and I am able to use the sights with a little more accuracy. I even changed all my bomber guns on all bombers to the stock B17 tail gun sight.

Last night I took out three in one flight from B24’s and I almost got a fourth with only the side guns left. A few others gave up too.

Thanks for the suggestion!

He's no "cheater" I fly around him often,.... he's just very good at what he does.

wait til you discover that the N key slaves the drone guns to fire together instead of just the plane you're in (F/mouse button)

That one I knew. I’ve been practicing trying to only shoot from one plane to save ammo for longer trips. Unless the crap hits the fan and the dragon needs to breathe lol.

Glad to hear you are finding success and enjoying it too. Use the ammo you got. Your more likely to lose a gun rather than running out of ammo. Just don't fire at anything until a target is within 1000. If you see 1k do not fire.
