ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[SEE]

One of the key issues is player balance and no one referenced that comment in my last post. The guys running and setting up the servers have noted a problem with and without the Spit Mk2 and are trying hard to find a solution.

I went on later with only Mk1/Hurri available and Blues outnumbered Reds 5 to 1.

Its a tough call for the server admins.

Secondly, I am a Spit pilot and, like you Jamz, like to prowl at 18K+ in my preferred choice of AC. It takes a hell of a lot longer to get a Spit Mk1 to that altitude compared to a Mk2 and it performs better than a Hurri- so yes, for that reason I (and others) would prefer a Spit Mk2. If I happen to run into a BF then at least we are pretty well matched up their. Not every one wants to engage in deck furballs.

You know, I wonder what the outcry would be if a FW was accused of overperforming at Mid/Low alt and Blues were told - 'No you can't have it! You will have to staywith a BF109 E1' even though many would fly it at high Alt where it performed more or less correctly?

It's a catch 22 situation at the moment which could be solved by players picking an ac best suited to fair play and their preferred style. But thats unlikely to happen with everyone but didn't you notice some were actually choosing Mk1s and Hurri's?

The bombers are just as easily killed by a Spit, a much nicer ride at 18K+ and evenly matched.....

Hi. The number of players is a variable thing. The map planeset dont. How can you combine these two things? I think, that there are Reds, who need the performance of the Spit IIa to shoot AC but it's still unfair. Maybe they should ask this guy what he did...

If your energy levels are the same at start (there really meet, and not BnZ from a height), the 109 no chance.

Beware of addiction

By the way it does not prove anything . You might hve been as-well scored all those kills in the Tiger Moth and then switch to Spit / 110 (beware of the tiger !!!)

The server admins have already stated that the stats are contrary to what you are implying.

Show me a screen capture of 60 players evenly divided and 30 flying Spit Mk2s all with a cricket score, all of whom were engaged in low alt DF's over identical time frames using the same ac for the entire session and you may have a point. You see where I am coming from regards your stat argument.....it doesn't have any validity as a statistic other than to attempt to stigmatise in the negative and fails miserably to boot!

As for the Co E argument at altitude, you guys know as well as I do that you position yourself at a higher altitude than your opponent. Hence 'beware the Hun in the Sun' , flying top cover over your bombers and BFs not engaging in T&B. I rest my case.........

Ok firstly the screenies are a bit of a joke..hell i can go and get 100kills if you like and just bail out every time someone gets on my 6.. lighten up fella

Secondly..Ok were wforget about the High where no Reds fly and you can have your 30 and 30.. lets see where the Spit2 comes..take out the AI and have SPit2 versus 109's..again that doesnt mean anything and is not what were discussing

Thirdly..The large Stats on the blue side are from being able to take down large formation sof bombers with cannon..not 1 opr 2 with 303's..not to mention again..REDS do NOT fly high...again the stats mean nothing

and my Fouth point...If we waited above bombers at 6k for Reds we wouldnt see anything other than maybe 1 or 2 AC inc yourself

I rest my case
