Out of interest in game BF109G2 at 500Kmh IAS you can obtain 6.8G and maintain it in a descending spiral.
Now where does that fit into the Porked index scale ?
We all know the in game 109 gets heavy on the stick at the higher speeds. Its been that way since IL2 hit the shelves many moons ago. The attempt to recreate the known pitch heaviness of the real aeroplane. Now if you think its overdone then at least detail what you expect. References to support your argument will also help.
There is some reasonable achievable G versus Airspeed data for late model BF109 available, and slightly more detailed than Pork ratings...

Ironically nobody tends to complain about the G2s elevator response. It's all the other 109s.
You would be incorrect about the 109s behing heavy on the stick since it hit the shelves. I think it was 4.04 that introduced the cement elevator. Regardless of references most other planes in the game don't have this problem.
If it's supposed to be modling accuracy then I would ask the same from you. What references were used to support the idea of heavy controls at certain speeds. I can't find any so far. Most of what I have seen said it had excellent handling through out the entire flight regime but then again these aren't tests.
