Dogfighting frustration on ATAG

[drewpee]

I have noticed with the new beta patch that shooting down an fighter ac is almost imposable. Flying on the ATAG server my kill ratio has always been around 6:1 and I land back at base most flights. Post patch it's down to almost 1:1 mostly flying 109's but also Spitts and Hurrys.
Last night I entered into about 12 dogfights most with the advantage. I believe I dominated most fights emptying my cannons and most mg in continuing passes. I didn't see a single ac go down (some were taken down in further action while heading home). I had three collisions with spits that destroyed my ac but the spit kept flying and one low stall. The score was 2.6 kills to 3 deaths.
Has any one els found it harder or am I just having a bad run?
