Why can we only pull of one loop or barrel roll though?

Another fun variant might be seeing who can shoot down all the 109's in the fastest time.

Put my time of 10minutes. After that I got bored and quit. I really think your only limitation in this challence is your will to go on :P.

I got shot at only once, and that was because I got bored and took them all head on. (1 bullet hit me, no damage model appeared).

It was in a P-47 against 109 F-4 if it matters.

did you follow all the rules, including sticking to 400-800ft?

yes I did, never went below the elevation of the cliff, and never above the radar station. just making racetrack paterns for 10 min.

Will now do it in a P-51 without WEP, against 16 109 K-4.

Im sorry....but I really dont see the problem :P. I really think you can keep on doing this untill the xbox gives a RROD :P (or you fall asleep)
Again I quit after 10 mins. I did it in a P-51 90% power, and all the time at 500-700ft. Against 16 veteran 109 K-4. I got shot at one time in my first turn... my wing was lightly red, thats all the action I saw. I never went more than 3km of either side of the cliff.

One or two planes crashed into the radar station about 5 mins in. The rest was still alive (I think).

I would like to try it in the PO-2.. but that one has a rear gunner :( so thats not allowed i gues.

Ps. never did a single loop or barrel roll btw

can I turn when I reach the end of the map ?:P hehe.. but no.... after 2 mins straight ahead i think you could actually get killed :P

EDIT:
LOL, i tried, but at 90% power 450 kp/h, you actually outrun the K-4 :P. These AI guys suck :P

EDIT2: new challenge, how long will it take to get SHOT down, if you try to get shot down.

EDIT3:
^^ 1 min and 14 seconds :p

Lol.... this challenge is getting rather stuppid :P. Will do this one as well, but like I just said. I outrun the K-4's with 450 kp/h

Lol...this is hard indeed, since you say minimum alitude above water is 500ft, and the landscape is at 600.. no way we can 400ft anywhere?:P I now assume you were being scarcastic?

EDIT:
Even though im not sure if you meant the new rule srlsy, I did it anyways :P. kept a straight line above the water at 450 ft. lasted 4.5 mins (was being shot at for at least 2 :P), but then a guy flew into me

no... because the straight line took all the 'fun' out of it. Might as well ask us to throw a dice, but you can still throw it with effect and with the hand of your choice. See who gets highest. Same 'kind of challenge'.

Cant you put the turning back in the challenge, and think of another rule that would certainly end the game within 10 min? (still giving some kind of fighting chance other than 'fly straight at 700ft')

Killing the plane in the shortest time, instead of evading them?
ThatYoungGameGuy
10-09-2009, 05:01 PM
hmm, maybe only being able to 'yaw' the plane? And not using the ailerons to turn?

Thats a good challenge. 16 bf-109 F-4 opponents, you a plane of choice, and see how fast you can take them down

no no no guys! Thats completely ruining the idea of this challenge! What about only being able to 'rudder' turn?

The problem is that the AI is just not challenging enough for an 'evasion challenge'. The idea is good, but it doesn't work.
