Spitdweeb: Or, what's wrong with flying the Spit?

[kilo2]

Some of us Luftdweebs walk a different path.

<----- former luft 'dweeb' who almost exclusively flew the k4

... and fluffluff'n proud

You only flew the 109s because your little square head fitted in the canopy better 

Remember what I told you about German designers and compound curves 

When are you coming back, let's do some more training

1. As a stalwart luftwaffe pilot, heres my answer:

2. The spit 16 is just ridiculous. It has almost no hole that can be exploited offensivly (ie, there is nothing that you can exploit in a fight, to give yourself an edge). It zooms decently, it rolls well, it turns good, it can dive to acceptable speeds without compressing, and can turn decently at higher speeds).


3. Thats just for the spit 16. I don't activly hate the other spitifres, since they have exploitable characteristics, but I still dislike them because, even though they have a low average pilot skill, they're still easier to fly than just about any plane in the game.

1. Oh really, you fly actual ww2 planes let alone German aircraft!?!! 

2. Classic luftwhine, 109f owns any spit model. Even The k4 can easily handle a straight 1 on 1 with the spit16...(sorry bruv) 

3. Your last paragraph is completly contradicting. If the other spits have exploitable characteristics then why don't you EXPLOIT them and kill them with ease? Takes low level of skill to fly a spit...HAH! Spits are the most finicky plane to fly in The whole game.

Most spits are flown by newbies and are easy perks. It's the occasional one flown a decent or vet that makes it annoying.

The 109F is close, but it does not owns spits. A well flown one can defeat a medicore spit pilot, but me in 109F < me in any spit. Even tho the 109F is my fav plane.

[titanic3]

Against the late war spits, they can just E fight the 109F till they eventually gain an E advantage. Then a simple rope is going to get the 109F killed. If the 109 doesn't follow the rope, the Spit can climb on top and start making BnZ passes at will.

Against Spit9s and earlier, the 109F should be able to kill all of them unless the 109 screw up.

O really?

I kindof agree with tank in the lack of weaknesses to exploit in the spit16

Oppsite for me...I'm a gong show in a spit...109 is alot easier to handle IMO.

While this makes them good planes for noobs, they're almost game exploits for veterans. I mean really, almost nothing can match the versatility of the spit 16, the only planes I would say even come close are: 109K (and G-14 to a lesser degree), the F4U, La-7, and the Ki-84 to a limited extent. Equally skilled pilots flying a 190 and a spitfire 16, 9 times out of 10, the spitfire will win.


And as for the British members of our game, theres other spitfire models out there, that are better representative of the spitfire in WII, and aren't advantegous to the same degree.

So in my view, if you aren't a noob, you have no buisness flying the spit 16. You're out for your score, or out to win a fight, rather than out to enjoy the fights.



Thats just for the spit 16. I don't activly hate the other spitifres, since they have exploitable characteristics, but I still dislike them because, even though they have a low average pilot skill, they're still easier to fly than just about any plane in the game.

ROFL...really....Mr. I need my K4 and anything less is a hanger queen.

In my view your a noob if you sit at the Tank spawn waiting for some unsuspecting person to spawn out, so you can set off the 4th of July fireworks display, whack them over the head and call it a tank battle. Then you other 20 countrymen at that spawn can all tell eachother how good of a tank battler you all are.


The only thing that makes a plane or tank dweebish is the person behind the controlls.

Your the only one then....

[ACE]

Your the only one then....

Not really..  I find 109s quite easy to handle as well.

[JunkyII]

So your saying you agree that a 109 is easier then a spit?

[ACE]

Never said that?  I simply stated that its an easy plane to handle.  Not once did I say its easier than the spit lol...
