Title: It's starting to get old...
Post by: SLCR on December 20, 2002, 05:00:21 PM

fast when 163's are vulchin' fields!  These "rockets" were meant for high bomber intercept with short flight time.  I've flown the 163 to protect HQ but when I up a field in a fighter and find out a flock of cheap 163 overhead there has to be something wrong.  I know it's the MA and people can fly whatever they want but there has to be some "realism" to this game(or is that just an oxymoron?). :rolleyes:

This game is more like an onion everyday.

So now do the 163 fields need some buff attention? Whack the fuel continually and knock down the refinery to keep it that way?

How far can they go on 25% gas? Was this all just a cheap HTC trick to make buffing or jaboing fuel more important as you close in on the HQ area?

Stay tuned..............

The first time I took one up (not counting at the con) I told my squaddies that this plane would generate a lot of whining. Just surprised I haven't seen more.

If you want a higher degree of realism, you may want to give the Combat Theater a try sometime.

I think the MA is pretty much a playground for any style of flying/combat.

Tonight the CT moves to Europe, 1944, so there will be alot of favorite rides available...

An Me163 attacked my Ki.67s last night.  It got one, but I killed it for doing so.
