The same could be said for Spit 16s, La7s, P-51s, P-38s, F4Us, blah, blah, blah  :lol

It all depends on the pilot  :cool:

I take offense. I am not good, but I'll fight anyone in my 190.

That goes for me also. I'll take on anything in my A5.

Seems you've never found someone who is actually good in a 190. Most of those you will find only fly the A5.


And the percentage would be?

Take out of the equation of guys like Moot and you have 95% that do exactly what I've said.

As far as timing goes with the thread.. I would have posted it 2 years ago and is still valid today.

Many 51 pilots fly it as if it was a 190 now a days it seems so there are many pick ho-tards i can complain about if I wanted. Play the game the way you want but realize those who have been here awhile have respect for some and none for others.

And BTW, I don't use spwell checjk. I have fat fingers and don't care what 7ya think as far as spelling. Get over it..no ones perfect with or w/o spell chack

Take offense if ya like but has nothing to do with the people who use it differently. You know where I'm going with this and exactly what I brought up.

A5- Solution for all spitfires.  :)

I've gone low and slow w/ every 190 except the 152 because I just really hate it =). It just most of the fight ends some what w/ me getting my arse kick. It would last about up to 5-10 min 190 v. spit, but eventually the spit would slowly get its rounds on me =)

They all have the same moves too.

A: Climb high, look for someone who's engauged, dive down and pick them. If you miss, climb back up and try it again.

B. If someone spots you and your higher than him, turn in for the HO. If you miss, extend away and find someone else to P off.

C: If interrupted while climbing, run for the deck and try to find a place you can climb in peace.

sounds like these dweebs figured out how to survive to fight another day. i personally like the teleport to the tower every 10 minutes.

So far, I've only flown in the DA (not good enough for the MA yet!).  I fly the 190 a lot and find it funny because what you are describing is what I see the Mustang and Typhoon pilots doing.  Yes, I'll take a HO shot now and again because, at least in the DA, if you don't most of the others will and your done.  I usually dive in BnZ style once or twice and then try to mix it up with all you "turners" out there and I have the scars to prove it!  I would like to eventually get enough skills to be competitive low and slow as well.  You all do need to understand that just as you use your aircrafts strong points (ie: sharp turns, good E recovery, etc.) we need to play to the strength of our bird as well.  So yeah, if I have good speed or the fastest roll rate in the game I'd be an idiot not to use them.  Don't all cry for more aircraft in the game and then want people to not fly them because they handle different from your bird and therefor do not play to your desires.  I don't complain when you Spit and F4u pilots sit behind me 5 deep trailing me all over the sky while I try rolling out from a hailstorm of .50 and 20mm shells.  I could complain too but hey, all's fare in love and war and...I just don't know you well enough yet.

I don't know how they trained them in Germany but here in game, the very first time you take one up you can only find one use for them.

...

A: Climb high, look for someone who's engauged, dive down and pick them. If you miss, climb back up and try it again.

B. If someone spots you and your higher than him, turn in for the HO. If you miss, extend away and find someone else to P off.

C: If interrupted while climbing, run for the deck and try to find a place you can climb in peace.

yup, add buff hunting and ground attack and thats pretty much how they should be used. their AH usage is pretty historical as far as I can tell :)

First of all....most aircraft were designed except for very few To E fight.

Example.  The US did not design the F6F hell cat or F4U, or F4F to turn fight with the Japanese Zero or Oscar.

The same withthe P38.  They were given speed, firepower and durability.  Couldn't climb with a Zeke or an Oscar.

In the ETO the USAF had the P38, P47 and later the P51.  They were not designed to stall fight or turn fight at 500 feet.

They were designed to fly just a bit higher to escort Bombers.

Now....the aircraft in question the FW190.  It wasn't designed to turn fight either.  It was designed to counter the SpitV.

It was designed to be fast, roll well, dive fast and be durable.  It was used to BnZ bombers and mix it up at escort altitude

with the Allies escort fighters.  The 190 was given heavy firepower for attacking bombers and the escort that got in the way.

This post has nothing to do with the History of the aircraft and on its' original use.

This is a reflection of gameplay and of cartoon aircraft in the game.

Since there are actually simmers playing this game if in a 190 I would use the attributes of my aircraft against any

deficiency of the opposing aircraft.  Fight my fight and not fight into the others strengths.  The idea is to win the fight.

There are also players in game that wish you to turnfight them because they are in a superior turning and climbing aircraft.

They will bait you etc. and maybe even call your integrity into question.

So if you up in a Zero,Spitfire etc don't get angry if you see a 190 around contolling the fight with Energy.

That is what the 190 was designed for....not to play the game your way because you are in a slower turnfighter.   :aok

That would only be true if they would fight in their 190's instead of running away. I have ran into some 190s that will fight, but most will run b/c they are to afraid to lose their cartoon plane. I agree with tools about 95% will either ho then run when they miss or try to pick and run when they miss.
