Raise the F8F up or put it at Rank 4 just before or after the cannon U4's

Guess it hurts your ego when a player as bad as me is (apparently) better at shooting down pinatas than you are.

You know it’s not true. Explain simply what makes the F8F anything but good? What is it bad at? Go ahead

You sure want people to think it isn’t.

Everybody else is also aware its not true when they glance at our statistics. I’m waiting on that explanation on how the F8F is bad by the way

yet you can’t state a single reason, fun fact it’s not the plane that’s bad it’s the pilot, lol

No, the yak3u is far better than the F8F. Although both are notably undertiered

honestly I’d agree the yak3u is superior to the f8f, it has zero reason to be so low, vk107 should also be 6.0 or higher. but the h5 absolutely shouldn’t be 6.3.

The yak3u clubs every prop in a 1v1, even the 6.3-6.7 ones. The only things it cannot turn fight are the zeros and A7Ms. But it can easily energy fight them

Walked into a reactivated topic, all for nothing but to see the same trope.🤦‍♂️
A guy who wants to bias F8F-1 even further, with zero logical conclusion, and throws random, off-topic, harsh talk at anyone who disagrees with him…

If we consider the F-16A armed with 6x 50cal for argument’s sake, it doesn’t mean it is 8BR material at the same level as the F-86s, right?

I wonder why someone actively ignores the flight characteristics of F8F and only thinks about the 4x 50cal firepower feature.
As a joke, if F8F-1 equips DGP-1 gunpods for four extra machine guns, because the pilot felt low firepower was an unnegotiable flaw. F8F-1 probably still fly better and acts better than P-47D-28 in the same BR.

skill issue
nothing more to say to this

even then it rlly does forgive a lot

its not
people just love to cry “BaD mER” while not even being aware that MER is a double edged sword
i can use your energy retention in turns as much against you as i can use your lack of

i mean they still pack a punch as long as you dont aim like dovah4

nobody ever said they have problems killing normal f8fs
but that is because the people playing the f8f dont do the basic mec
dont climb
dont keep their speed when they need it
dont take the right lines in fights
and take way too much dogfights
now the f8f1 can hang with a lot of stuff in dogfights
but if youre not facing little timmy in his yak3 eg youre not gonna have a fun time even tho the f8f1 defo feels like a plane that isnt as bad for turnfights as people make it out to be i will do more testing on that topic

Not really an argument that you can make. If the reason I’m able to farm F8Fs so much is only because every single F8F player is the worst player in the game, then all the other vehicles around that BR would also be SL pinatas.

this has quite literally nothing to do with anything here unless youre going for personal attacks but i mean nobody would ever doo that here right?

same here
no need to get personal
i think youre a moron
doesnt mean i need to include it in all my posts

look at post above

not an argument again so why do you bring it up?
like dude

you might either
want to stop talking absolute nonsense or back what you say up

why dont you prove that the f8f1 is a bad plane then
with stuff that isnt just you saying you constantly kill it
like yk
lets look at its performance
actually i can do that for you
lets compare it to some of the competition at 4.7 shall we?
were going to take one 4.7 out of most tech trees (ill try to pick the most decent ones) and compare it to the f8f


as you can see far superior climb and topspeed and still better insta ;w;

mostly same here

wasnt able to find a better japanese 4.7 ;w;

also here the f8f1 is straight up faster and climbs way better

and now prob facing it off against the second best 4.7
the yak3


yea its not even close
so yea gl explaining to me how the f8f1 is a bad plane

alr just tested against an equally skilled player in dogfights
the f8f1 stomps the 109f4
the 109g6
prob the 225 too since its not much better than the g6 in 1v1s
stomped the tempest mk V
stomped the g56
and gone equal against ki84ko
so yea its pretty decent in dogfights
even tho it lost to a competently flown yak3 (who would have though)
(the list was 2-1 against 109f4; 1-0 against 109g6 (we stopped cuz the gap was too big); 0-1 to a typhoon (also stopped cuz gap was too big); 1-1 against a tempest mk V (the kill the tempest got was rlly poor flying on my part); 0-1 against 2k5 serie 0 (was expected but the gap was so big we also stopped); 0-2 against yak3 (who would have thought); 1-0 against g56 (was not close); 0-1 against VL pyör (gap too big again); same for ki100 and j2m2 but it got 1-2 against the ki84 and 3-0 against the seafire fr47)
so everybody that says it cant dogfight is just wrong
