@Devs: Stop the Central nerfs - its enough

[Winger]

Well, if it s really true that allies can fly up to above 9k height and germans are stuck at 7.4k the game is done for me. No matter how good the rest is. Gamebreaker..

EDIT: Hmm. cant find where i read that. Can anyone confirm any red plane being able to go as high als 9000+ meters?

I'm constantly flying at 4-5k, but the game is simply empty in there. the reds won't climb up there, unless they are forced too. and that can only be done by having bomber flights and make them primary target for mission's success.

it's even worse for bombers, and especially for the stuka.

also, the second biggest porking comes from server's missions. air war is simple: bombers flew to blow targets, fighters were trying to prevent them doing that, while the bombers' escorts were trying to protect them. everything else comes from this.

as long as missions don't have massive blue bombers formations trying to blast red island's from the face of the earth, and code for organizing the escorts/attackers, we won't have historical combat encounters on these servers, but just an elevated form of the old airquake..

i agree with the boom n zoom technique and the visibility problems...its really hard to dive on something that just completely disappeared few hundred meters in front of you.

Just now i shoot two 109s and one runs away of my mighty hurricane in ATAG...

All this in medium battles, like five aircrafts involved.

Keep the discussion about FM. I'll continue to to the best i can with what i have!
