they made same mistake w/ fw-190 that they did w/ p51D?

I simply dont believe for a second that german pilots flew this POS (basing this on the game) into battle and thought it was any good.

The fact is that if you get an enemy on your tail you are finished , and having played many matches with the plane it doesnt matter what you do , after that first pass you are finished because the plane simply turns around to intercept you even if you came in from a dive and have airspeed.

They need to fix the plane badly just like the p51

Well going up against it in Training and even Online, the plane seems to do well. The few people I have flow up against who have flown the 190A5, have even be able to avoid me at times. Maybe you just need to raise the sensitivity (if it isn't already) and see how it is?

I don't really fly it, but it is a fun plane to fly against a MkIX with. I've had three successful kills with the 190A5 against MkIXs. And they were Online as well. But I do agree, the 190 does need some fixing up, but it doesn't seem to need as much as the P51 which is just a PIG!

how do you adjust the sensetivity? (this may seem like a stupid question, but since i haven't had any problems with any other planes, i haven't looked into it)

can you have different sensitivity settings for different planes, or is it just one setting for all planes?

1 sensitivity for all planes. just the one in options menu, and it will be like you set it, and stay like that with every plane

sorry soviet, but the FW190 is really not performing like it should.
and 'Well going up against it in Training', doesnt prove anything. The AI enemys have many advantages. put a P-51 enemy in training, and it will turn like a snake, and fly like a rocket. try to do it yourself.. and epic fail.

But I am pretty convinced, that it will be fixed allong with the P-51 fix. there is just something in BOP, that holds back performance.maybe it affects all planes, but it is best noticed in the 'fast' planes, and the ones you want should use for BnZ
The stall/spin occurs in the FW190 and P-51 wayyy to fast. you cant turn like you should be able to, not even when you have a lot of speed. prob the FW190 is also loaded with fuel, or something. It just flies like a freight train

I know it needs fixing, just that I don't think it needs as much fixing as the P51. When I tried the 190, I had the sensitivity set all the way up. And it seemed to fly like a Yak-1 to me? I know the 190 isn't up to all it could be, but it still does do a good job Online, at least for the people I've flow against who fly it frequently. Though I do have the unfair advantage, of my Yak-3 able to out turn it anyway.

ok... then we agree . It is indeed flyable - whereas the P-51 is not. but is does need some fixing .
I have never been shot down by a 190 (99% sure bout that), and shot down at least 20. when I see one, I go 'yes, easy target'. even if it is someone who knows how to fly it. They can outrun me, but then I just pick another target till he comes back, and then he is dead anyways. He just cant outrun me with the speed it should (I fly spit IX). he booms, zooms, and I boooooooom. he cant run fast enough, and cant turn.

After some fix, I would like to go 'hmm, a 190, I need to watch my moves and keep an eye one him'. after all, it is the most advanced piston of the germans.
