Hello!
Many people say, flying the red, it's hard to kill the pilot.
In the video we see that this is not so ...

So why not put everyone on equal footing in the game? The old IL-2 way worked fine, no matter if you have head tracking or not. You could have a gun sight cross hair and wide view and use a hat switch for views. But not in CLoD because of "realism". I really have to wonder how real it is. It is not good for game play where some will have the advantage from a head tracking work around and others don't imo. Zoom in, zoom out, zoom in, zoom out, maybe you get a headache after a while of doing that.

You are right.

It's not difficult at all. Actually, most of the time, you injure or kill the guy in a 109 even from dead 6 o'clock. The .303 are actually very effective and I rarely need to repeat my attack. Short burst and he's done with pieces falling off (usually rudder or flaps), water and fuel leaking, often the fuel tank bursts into flames (unfortunately only visual effect unless you see black smoke, too), but most of the time I bet the pilot sees red and has got great trouble seeing you.

From your flying at ATAG, it's clear you're a very good pilot and shot, but your K/D ratio is on as favourable as it was on a 109. RAF is very challenging to fly against good 109 pilot, don't you agree?

Ye gads not a .303 are porked whine ........

Wait till the .50 arrives at least before starting my ammo is porked fest.



As with all ammo convergence is the key to getting results, you can sit behind your enemy firing till all belts are out,
without correct convergence and aiming you are wasting your time.

Nope, just Chuck Testa.

Ok: the .303 CAN be very effective when used right. What Alpha said - convergence is the key. What I described was BnZ attack in a Hurricane against a 109, I really rarely have to repeat as that guy is finished and very often injured. It's more difficult against bigger and better armoured targets, but 109 is not a problem if you manage to get close enough.

Many pilots (not just me, there are far better shot than myself btw) can get any Axis bomber in one pass. If you hit a He or Ju in the right spot from the right distance => wing off.
