British FM killing the fun of the game for allied pilots.

[JtD]

And how often have you lately succeeded in bouncing a 109 while in a Spitfire, sending it down in flames? And what words did you get when you did that?

Personally, I find weak opponents more annoying than strong ones, so if the poll question was "is the poor performance of RAF fighters killing the fun for Axis fighter pilots", I'd probably vote yes. But then, all this is secondary to my preference of historically correct performance, leaving the whole fun and balance issue to the mission maker.

Another good example of the attitude I was talking about. Nothing else matters because the Spitfire is undermodeled. Bad attitudes are acceptable because the Spitfire is undermodeled. This community is toxic. Thanks for perpetuating it, JtD.

Edit in case people still aren't clear: When JTD tries to turn around my comment by saying "how many times have you bounced a 109 flying a spit?" what he is doing is excusing peoples' bad attitudes and enabling their misbehaviour.

It's okay to be frustrated at the state of the FMs. It's not okay to take that frustration out of people who have no control over how the flight models are written.

i think is stupidity who killing the fun, just fly you'r favorite plane and not the best ingame...

i thook we are a mature community...

Those 8 guns are really really devastating in the right hands, tweaked belt loads, convergence adjustments and piloting skills...I wouldn't want one on my tail.

I'm not excusing anything. But since you don't seem to be getting the message, here it is in plain text: Bad attitudes are found on both sides. You'd be more aware of that, if you didn't limit yourself to flying for just one.

Yeah, right.

You don't say?

But we're not talking about bad attitudes on all sides. We're talking about misdirected animosity directed towards 109 pilots, as if we're to blame for the crappy RAF FMs.

You'd be more aware of that, if you didn't limit yourself to flying for just one.

Tell me again how you log all my sorties.

Why do I get the feeling this simple thread is going to go the way of all the others?

Pretty pathetic really isn't it??

[Trooper117]

I think you are correct...

Well with all due respect Doggles, you really seem to have interpreted what he said in slightly wrong way, and you got very defensive again. There is no reason for that.

There is no animosity towards 109 pilots in this thread, there are just these porked RAF fms (and the OP is addressing the devs, not the general 109 flying public).

To be honest, it's pretty obvious that you're strictly LW pilot, am I right?
