Plane performance not right?
« on: March 20, 2010, 12:48:27 PM »
The pony seems off.... seems slow(er) in acceleration..maybe top end. It's subjective I know.  I've heard others mention similar comments regarding other rides.

I did test level flight acceleration @ 500ft, 150-200-250-300-350 mph and found nothing has changed. I'm getting the same results as before. I can't judge dive acceleration though.

I've heard several complaints about different aircraft, (the F4U-1A being sluggish seems to come up pretty often, although I've found no difference) and a number of people are claiming guns in WWII aren't as effective as they were before.

The only issue I've had is that my rudder won't stay calibrated since Patch 4 came out....
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

It seems like whenever I look out the side of my plane I'm missing an engine.

Yeah there's weird stuff going on.  The other night I watched Grizz TnB with multiple cons and win decisively.  I knew there was something fishy....  :noid

Wow, you would think I sent this at 30,000 feet..How it went over everyones head...LOL

Those are some of the most common Support answers when problems arise after patches start coming out preceeding a new version.. :x

Ive learned to NOT make a change or complain...cus they will fix the problem and its rarely related to our individual machines. If planes seem slow a patch will fix it even though it may not be listed in the readme file.

<S> I flew the B Pony a few days ago. It seemed kind of sluggish, did not want to get speed. Seemed to be slow in manuevering also. I don't know maybe it was me.
