Anxious for the P-47 And possible loophole for corsair

monst3r matt · #1 09-09-2009, 04:26 AM

I was just wondering when we will be able get the P-47.

And I saw on Wikipedia that the royal navy had corsairs that served in Europe so could that mean a possible DLC?

Probably be seeing the P47 before, during, or after the possible DLC for the German cockpits, and hopefully other non-cockpit planes comes out? And I don't think we'll be seeing the Corsair in BoP. It didn't play a big enough roll in Europe (obviously).

Is there some sort of estimated month/date of when it might be released?

Yeah, there was like one paragraph about it in the article. still nice to dream though.

Anton said early October. They seem to be on top of things. Based upon what I saw tonight, they seem to have fixed the crash system to a minor degree, more people are getting kills after dealing out serious damage only to have said weenies crash into the ground. They still haven't totally worked it out, but it's a little better.

They can change this already by modifying their own servers? They don't need everyone to download a game update? Or did a game update come out?

Yep, he said "October".

Indeed they were, there are 4 possible loadouts for the p47 and the cockpit as well

In strike, the most useful one - for purely ground attacking is the 10 rockets, 8 machine guns and the 2x1000lb and 1x500lb bomb (IIRC)

It's like flying an ac130!

lol

Edit: However, manuevarability and the climb rate naturally falls hugely as a result

Really, they've done that to a P2P game without releasing any kind of patch, amazing
