Not really, unless its a mk 24. Late 109’s dogpile on griffons. (Not in a dogfight.) The engine is no joke, the griffons take too long to latch on to once the 109 starts shallow diving, and easily looses most of the energy once you transition to the verticals. I vividly remember out-energy’ing 2 griffons in the K4, and also in the VK 107, but we can make an exception here since the VK-107 is an absolute monster.
I don’t really have anything to add majorly to the argument at hand though. I love all the mid-late 109’s but I detest all 190’s. The only thing I like is the 152 down that line, but anything else? I would rather be in a 109.
what? it doesn’t require this at all. Its just VERY GOOD at getting it compared to a lot of aircraft and easy to manipulate the scenario after acquiring it.
is there any way we can get them to revert the flight modules I love the fw190a5 and now its terrible to fly what can we do to get them to let us have fun?
Wait till you get to 262 and constantly face planes from 1960’s or even 1970’s
Best fun that you could have is to be shot by AIM 9 or radar spaa then called noob
8/10 would recommend
From my pov the reversal of flight model changes of any aircraft depend on 2 factors:
Significant player feedback from the right people in the right forum
Economic impacts of changes vs open or sub-concious bias
How?
If you dig deep enough in the rabbit hole of actual player impact on gaijin you find a lot of indicators that the Russian forum has some kind of power / influence - and can change some things if the right amount of long term players supports changes / requests / bug reports.
In addition you might agree that the BR range of German props already covers the sweet spot of the German Ground / Tank TT. If we have a common understanding that SB modes and Air RB are way less important than Ground warfare (and Air AB is way more popular than Air RB and Air SB) it seems obvious that German props will be used no matter how bad they might behave - they will be used in Ground RB doing way less sophisticated tasks.
Regarding bias: No matter of open or sub-conscious - as long as devs come from the former USSR you have to consider that almost everybody there lost ancestors in WW 2; there are still claims that the actual human casualties were close to 40 million (and not 26) and the “Great Patriotic War” is still a thing there - so it would be close to a miracle if there would not be any kind of bias.
It’s also like that at very low tiers when you have no big calibers and get uptiered with planes that have big calibers, except at very low tiers the pain doesn’t last very long while above 6.0 the grind is loooooong
I main France though so life isn’t really tough for me
Love its camouflage, hate how it has no late-war belts. Probably the only P51B/C I dislike (I don’t have the french nor the chinese one though, but I reckon they’re the same with belts.)
Fw 190 is good but has bad turning rate and can be easily destroyed by everything.
also don’t compare Japan with Germany, dude.
i played Japan for a while and their planes are just too op, something obvious knowing that they can turn asf and the cannons are very good, with just a few planes that are quiet slow and are bad by that
i got a lot of kills with the 109, but with the 190? nah, too bad turning, if u don’t kill the enemy in the first pass and don’t climb, u’re dead.
the Ta 152 H is very good too, but u need to be at high altitude cuz there’s where the engine works very very well, but it’s at 6.0, so u can face early jets with better guns and better rate of ascension, not like the 109 K-4, that can face 6.7 planes, with probably just the me 262 with the 50mm that u can face in public matches
