erm......what's a 'gravity accelerated vertical turn' Kozzmo?

Oh, and (VERY IMPORTANT) could you pm a description (rather than reply in this thread) of how to perform one as I don't want anyone else to know...........................only kidding!

As many have have stated, Mirgervin is either the best of the best, or one of. There's only one guy I knew who could give him a run for his money 1v1, but he's since retired.

I once managed to keep my view on him as he manouvered onto my 6 from a head to head, and you might notice he always turns upwards. He does a kind of stall turn thing then uses acceleration and your turn against you. I found the best tactic was to use my spit's superior firepower against him in a head to head then try and make enough distance to turn for another head to head. Needless to say it wasn't hugely successful.

Also, on the few occasions I have shot him down, more often than not, kills don't register on him and it counts as a crash (even after the patch). Also, re: screen size, he says he plays on a crappy smallish screen.

EDIT: apologies to SubaruGaz - I didn't realise you could beat him also, just like I didn't realise this thread had 2 pages before I posted lol

Migervin isn't that unbeatable and you guys give him far too much credit. Plus he ran away from the xbox guys for easier targets on the PS3...............lol

Hey mate it wasn't my intention either to say that you were being derogatory (sorry my english sucks, especially when I'm not drunk)
Lol I played only one game against I-152, it was long time ago and it was a nightmare for me. Probably most of the guys around here developed good tactics against that plane, I simply avoid it

I mean, I rarely saw him because he was almost always on my 6. whether I stayed high and dove down on him, or if I got down low in the weeds and tried to get the angle, it didn't matter, within a couple of turns he was behind me blasting the last shards of pride I had that was floating above Berlin.
I don't believe it was plane choice or any other lame excuse I could come up with. After the match I sent him a messege full of praise, and he wrote back with a thanks stating it's from lots of flying time, but is that it? I mean I was beside myself experiencing that kind of flying! I'm not looking for "gaming tricks", but rather flight combat tactics that can be practiced and honed to improve my battle worthiness. afterall, aside from the occasional flash of La-5 whizzing by, I never got to see how he ALWAYS got on my 6 o'clock....
hello nuklhed808,

there are really many great players in this game and a lot of players kick my ass too!!! but it is good to loose against them because u can learn and progress a lot!!
when i play i m afraid of all the players even the noobs because all of them have "the fighting spirit" and maybe today they are noobs but tomorrow they will be an aces i m sure because of practice!!it is great
IN MY OPINION MIRGERVIN AND TAGMANDBAGEM ARE REALLY THE BEST!!!!!
REALLY A GREAT ACES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!RESPECT!!!!

GOOD HUNTING

Yup, I gotta agree. I wasn't pointing at MIRGERVIN as THE best pilot in the game, only that pilots with his level of flying simply amazes me! Yes, you too Olife. I can always count on you to have my 109 put into a flaming death spin. But win or loose I always learn something and I ALWAYS have fun...

I'm suprised Branko. I met him for the first time last night in a game with Ratman and found him to be a decent bloke. Was a good dogfight too with plenty of good kills by all so I'm suprised you state he was insulting.

He and "SHADOWCORP" are strong supporters that ME and the B-17 we dont belong here but i give a damm F**K what they think !!!

MIGHT SOMEBODY CAN BUY FOR "SHADOWCORP" SOME ROCKETS SO HE CAN AD THIS NONSENSE TO HIS "HIT & RUN" BIRD ???
Hey Branko,
sadly that's what the 262 was designed to do and is the only aircraft in the game that is capable of such long distance or hit and run kills. And to be honest as Shadow uses it as such and is damn useful at it I've got to respect the guy for doing so. Shadow is also a great bloke and and one of the fairest players I know so again I'm shocked that you feel this way??

Er.. Me 262 = B-17 killer..
you can't complain about people using 262's in the same forum where you've had a go at someone for telling you not to use a B-17, because that's hypocrisy.

It's one of the risks of flying a bomber.. If you see a 262 it'll soon be over.
