Title: 234 no longer usable!!?!
Post by: Preon1 on October 05, 2001, 07:31:00 AM
With the new 262 which is far faster and climbs MUCH better than the beloved fast strike bomber, it is far too easy to get shot down.  However, I DID read in a bomber book that the 234 had a single 20mm in the bellybutton incase it got bounced...  think we can get that?

Ar 234 should be a low perk. I would say no more than 10 perkies now.

Cheers,

Once we get back to the norm the Me262 will be as rare in the sky as the 234, i dont think it will really be a problem.

I will agree for now though, the first few weeks when everyone is spending there perks to fly the 262 it will not be a good idea to fly that bomber.

Ardo will be fine. Have to play it a bit smarter but so what. The trees will kill alot of them on take off though..

Trees should only kill those arado pilots who like to save their RATO.  RATO is for takeoff!!  If you use it properly you will never hit a tree even in automode

I dunno, when i fly it before take off i hold in the breaks while the turbines are warming up and dont let off the brake until they are full blast, that way you get maximum thrust/distance.. even with out the RATO you could take off before you hit the grass.

Man you hit the nail right on the head. Use the RATO, that is what is there for, not an escape function when you get bounced.
