Easy mode?  Thats funny!!

Let me guess--some guy screaming down into a fight in a 190 blazing away only to climb back to his perch afterwards said that?

These guys are a huge problem in the game and something needs to be done.

All they are doing is taking the easy route, the less combat the better.

In short, these guys are avoiding combat and need to be dealt with.

A 190 screaming in on straight line trajectories going 400+ is easy mode yes, but a plane that can turn 180 degrees in less than 2 seconds isn't very hard to fly either now is it?  All you did with your post is point out another easy mode style of play.  You didn't disprove the OP's assertion.

What I find curious and kind of funny is Junky, from his posts in the past, seems to think F4Us,109s,51s,38s are all easy mode :lol It's like everyone is in easy mode except him.  :huh Now we can add all the "turny" planes to his easy mode list too.  :lol

HAHAHAHA got me. I used to say they were alot because of people like UglyStik's and VNE1's  flying style. Always on top of the fight never fighting unless from an advantage.

I never said 109s were easy mode....

I guess the only plane you are now allowed to fly in the MA to avoid the "lame scoretarding easymoder" moniker is a throttled back P-40B at 500 ft with empty guns, making sure you do not have any advantages you could use against any enemy...

All i need to say is that my zeros are not easy mode when flown correctly. i have done maneuvers most wouldn't expect out of the a6ms. granted they aren't the best to get back to base with unless you are working as a team, but then why exactly can i have 3-8 kills in some flights with zekes? there are some easy maneuvers to use in the zero once you find them to turn the tide on the pilots ZnBing you also. most vets would probably guess these in a heartbeat

As someone who uses the Hurri 2C as his main "ride", I've never understood the hatred of this bird.

Sure, the hispano's are heavy hitters, and it turns on a dime, but it's one of the slowest aircraft in the game, both in acceleration and top speed, you can't run from anything!

And just FYI, it's been my favorite aircraft since i was 8 or 9 and given a copy of this (which I still have)

The RAAF must have been real dweebs in WWII. All our aircraft are considered dweeby. P51, spit V, Spit VII, Brewser and the list goes on. What shananigans there will be if we get the Beau and the Boomerang.
