Whoever was flying them wasnt flying them correctly lol. IF a 109 manages to jump you and get rounds into you then your pretty screwed, but its your own fault as the hurrican pilot for not being on the ball and keeping your tactical awareness up

to be fair though, when we were flying it earlier, our targets alot of the time did try to turn us alot, but they lost speed and we could out turn them and get our kills.

The 12 guns are much better than people give them credit for. Granted they are not the best but they are damn good none the less

i do think this plane is a little to strong though.

Yeah they are feared by so many U-Boat Captains.

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!

Foz.....

You may recall a question, a few day ago, from you along the lines of, "Panzer.... you're not seriously thinking of using a Hurricane in a Simulator Team Battle, are you??"

So I was persuaded to fly the Spitfire XVI and was shot down a lot by, er..... you, as a matter of fact.

Next time I'll stick to the Bf-110 C4 in simulator games, as I've scored more kills with that than I've managed with any of the single engined fighters.

You were the only guy flying the hurricane so it woldnt of really worked the spit on the other hand would of fitted in well with me and the other guy on our team who was also flying the spit. We did ok. Wasn't me who shot you down lol, i was on your team.

I've seen you in the 110 a few times, i must admit i do single you out if i see you in it. Nothing personnal but the 110 is big, easy to hit and slow enough and on sim mode with limited ammo you need all the hits you can get lol.
