Inaccurate performance data for BOB fighters in COD comparing to RL data

For now, model the basics, the most common lunch pail aircraft that were the yeoman.. we can model the 15th variation that had 4 produced and saw service for 3 hours before the battle officially ended later..

Everyone always starts screaming because they want the highest performing variant and every advantage.. The game is 72 hours old and there are many more issues to deal with before this becomes the priority.. at this point we don't even have accurate means to analyse the data and speeds.. going by Altimeters and Speedometers that are nothing more than a graphical portion of a GUI isn't wise..

Oh, I give up if that's the sense of proportion that people have. Apparently just over a quarter of all RAF fuel consumption being 100 octane from July-August (which means Fighter Command 10, 11, 12 and 13 Groups, all of Bomber Command and all of Coastal Command) no longer even leads to the conservative conclusion that the approximately 20 squadrons at a time stationed in 11 Group Fighter Command stations used it *at least*. Not like that's important since they're the stations that nearly all of the missions shipped with the game are concerned with of course.

Probably bombers and the handful of PRU Spitfires used it all. That would be totally logical during the defense against a large-scale bombing campaign. Oh, hell, in fact they probably filled up Sunderlands with it. Also, apparently widespread usage = the 15th variation that had 4 produced and saw service for 3 hours before the battle officially ended later.

I'm already confused enough about why we don't have a 109 E-1 and E-4, and why the 110C-4 doesn't use the FF/M, and why certain RAF aircraft that should don't appear to have CSUs, at the moment we basically have a Battle of France simulator without the fixed wooden props on some RAF aircraft, but now people are getting weird about something that should definitely be modelled in RAF aircraft in exactly the same way as any of the other features above.

Tuck claimed he used +12 LBS as early as in May over Dunkirk !

They are biasing out the game again, twisting history to make this a game and not a sim, sad !
