im confused , is this the same thread as last week?

EDIT:
ah, it is not... i meant this one http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...ighlight=reign
do you want the same discussion as before ?

since you again mention it is too good, even against spit IX etc... I would be more then happy to ask seraph to take you and pope on.
Dont know who were flying the LA-7 x2, but they should have kicked the hurri ass big time
The hurri WILL lose against spit IX or LA-7 , (with equaly skilled pilots), im very sure about that

Hey MorgothNL

This thread wasnt to say how good the hurri is and how bad everything else is, so dont worry

Im a realist and was shocked at how well the hurricane was performing i all scenarios when flown with another hurricane. Im my eyes its better than it should be.

Spent a while in free flight last night using both the hurricane and the LA-7, nad the LA-7 beats it in every dept... though armament could be disputed?? i know the LA-7 has a cannon but the 12 MG's on the hurri seem to take it out extremely easily.

As stupid as this sounds -

I would love to go up against you and seraph (both in LA-7) and lose. I want to lose and expect to lose. Just so i can see how the hurricane performs.

Ive lost my winning streak in the Hurri. And it was 4 of us V 3 of them. I had Benrizz on my side and we both did well separately but we had no team work (no mics) and the two others on our side got no kills. So our team work in the Hurri is as important as the planes ability.

Bring on the La-7's Morgoth We will probably lose I know but it will be a fun challenge.

benrizz is a good player, but the mic problems would only worsen due to difference in language, he's french i believe so its hard for him to understand us and communicate etc. Though all credit to him he does try his best when he can

Ahh yes, but Pope you are being too modest. You got 9 kills. Also yes it was 4 vs 3 but we only scored 1 point more and 2 of your team scored zero! So you kind of won in my book...

That Hurricane does seem to take a lot of hits though.

Good game!

The fw190 owns the hurri backwards and forwards in IL2 1946 - it would do the same in BOP if they didn't screw something up on the flight model (no idea what they did to it).

In 1946, it is probably the ultimate BNZ plane because of its high speed control authority, roll rate, and the best guns in the game - a good pilot can always manage a deflection shot even if the enemy knows he's being bounced - and with the FW's guns, that quick shot can do ugly damage.

Too bad the FW flies like it's carrying 200% fuel and bombs in this game.

Yeah we should have won that game

Indeed for the teamwork, I must say that understanding you is a bit difficult through trough the Mic.
I can understand simple sentences ("save my ass", "Friendly fire friendly fire what the F**uck are you doing, escort me to the red base...etc).

But when it comes to long story. And all of you like a lot speaking for hours about plane armaments, kills they had during the previous game...etc.
And i'm not used to your accent (And I've got a terrible french one )

That's unfair
- Morghot and Seraph Netherlands are NL teammate,
- Foz, Robotic and Dazz, you're English speakers teameate,
- Chankychank( well chanky doesn't need teammate, he is a butcher on is own)

I'm a desperate for a French speaking teammate, Where are the french canadians ?? The country needs you guys

Hehe, me and Morgoth could talk english if you want . We could try spanish, but then it'd be more likely we'll shoot eachother, instead of someone else.

I play the ps3 but I've faced a bunch of Hurricanes online and I have a hunch the matches you're talking about were unlimited ammo.

If so, that's the reason they do so good... what I've seen so far is the online is dominated by decent turners with machine guns. With unlimited ammo, using machine guns gives you a much greater number of chances to hit and do a bit of damage from far away. The Hurricane especially covers a huge amount of target profile with its guns. You can fire from much farther away than normal, before you're close enough for the target to effectively break out of plane, and if you can nick the target a couple times, it's easy to close in for the kill.

It does seem like the Hurricane overperforms in level turns, but it is a slow plane... a lot of people fly their planes too fast and expect to turn the corner on a much slower plane, when they should go 3-D first to slow down. Not implying that you all do, but it's pretty common.

Too bad limited ammo never works... there's no penalty for just crashing and respawning.
