F8F-1's rudder fix makes it one of the most demonic planes to fight in 4.7

@incongru
Yet in this topic I have the patch notes that prove my posts correct.
And in the other topic I have actual screenshots proving my Spitfire posts correct.

Your posts weren’t jabbing at me cause I don’t false flag posts, so that means your post was talking about you.

dude i give up, the way you word your posts is genuinely sending me and i cant make heads or tails out of it, peace.

I make typing errors when I feel rushed, and that tends to have me to unintentionally leave out words and thoughts that are necessary.

I really don’t understand the F8F-1 hatred. I’ve been playing alot of 5.0 Germany (mainly Fw-190 D-9 and Bf-109 G-2) and F8F-1s have been pretty easy to take down.

F8F-1 is a hard-to-balance type of plane.
Heavily undertiered airframe combined with overrated weaponry.
Bad player basically does even worse than P-47 thanks to fewer 50cal ammo to grind the ground.
While a good player literally lit everything on fire and let everything burn to the ground

Feels like F4U-4 but flying better while having worse weapons.
I think you faced only bad players who playing it

I mean, those typical US mains which does sucks bad in XP-50 that broken for years.

meanwhile if you see someone fly the f4u7, you run for the hills because if anyone’s flying that thing in ARB, it probably means they know what theyre doing and they will snipe you from a km out lol

Not really, it’s heavily exaggerated how hard it is to get kills with 4 .50s

Well… it is true that F8F-1 has slightly lighter weaponry compared to its counterparts, right…?
(Which might be one of the reasons why F8F-1 is heavily underrated)

Even though I also had no problem to killing targets right after unlocking the [laser beam] belt.

IMO with short experience about F4U-4 and F8F-1,
Their true enemies are not colored red, but colored blue and green instead.

I wasn’t skilled enough to deal with 2 A7M or Ki-84 ko at once with my F8F-1. :/

yeah, but not to the extent its ACTUALLY mega difficult to get kills

I would argue that the U.S. pilots are not that much to blame when the very gameplay loop gaijin made goes against how U.S. planes are meant to be used…
