Default 109 cant do XXXX anymore.

Well, now we have what i expected from day one. A 109 that cant do XXXX against spitfires. Even Spitfire Ias. Pre patch it was able to outclimb the spit by a good margin therefore compensated for its sucky turnrate. now i can hardly outclimb and hardly outspeed a spitfire 1 in my 109 not even with perfect pitch management. GOOD job now the game is TOTALLY dead for me! Well done!

Winger it was me you were scrapping with.

Believe me when I say

a) You were outclimbing me .

b) You were out-running me.

And this was after I had repeatedly hit your 109, white stuff trailing from each radiator, and at one point I had set your wing-tip on fire....despite all this I was still being left behind!

So from where I was sitting it wasn't a lack of performance from the 109 that brought you down.....it was the fact that each time you tried diving/extending/climbing you came into the range of my guns and got hit. That's not the plane's fault.

With that said, have a look at this post I made yesterday....

So, I'm flying a 109 online an hour ago.

I happen upon a Hurricane. Both of us are roughly co-E so I gently straighten out, nudge the revs to 2500 and begin a 260kph climb. At this point I am outside his of guns range so i'm not particularly concerned; I can continue to extend for a bit and decide what to do.

Imagine my surprise, then, when I find the Hurricane slowly but inexorably gaining on me.

Why?

Anyone else had this happen?

i know i was faster and better climbing but by a really small amount. Much less than what was possible pre patch. At least that was what it felt like. If i wanted to fly me a decent amount of height advantage it would have taken forever. Also when diving its much harder to get room entween me and the pursuer. Pre patch this was much easier.
But hey. NA release is close so pleasing the grand of customes is important too eh

EDIT: Ze-Jamz no i dont mean it. I just do this post because i feel like calling people like you on the plan to make crappy comments. SUCCESS!
