Hi Stalin, I have had 0 signups and I am thinking this isnt going to happen anyway. I think you using lower aircraft will eventually make it impossible to fly against you if you use higher a/c later. No I am gonna say no even though I dont think it really matters. I dont think you guys liked this format. -Ray

Ok Dan time to fire Brian AGAIN! Sheesh he just gets damaged but never goes Down in Flames. -Ray

Fred, So you are among the people that thinks free speech actually applys to everything you say do you? So if you think that its ok to cuss, I bet you dont care if your kids watch porn. And if you are going to argue that cussing and porn are different, well nope, they are both protected by "free speech." And in your job, are you allowed to run around cussing? How fast would they fire you for using the F-word to a customer? You cant run through an airport and yell "bomb" or I'm a terrorist! You cant cuss out a cop for too long without being arrested. So my conclusion for you is you have the right to say whatever you want, but there are consequences for some speech. But yes kids do know these words but you also have to understand others rights to wanting a safer place for them to play.

Mustangs only had a chance against newbies cause of the mass of them. Also they were concepted as longe range fighters so in a dogfight they had no chance against german aces. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

A sane person wouldnt come here for years waiting for a game, but my guess is you are doing your part to make us insane....

Bob, The general accepted kill total for the Mustang in the ETO is a little less than 5,000. I am sure the bf-109 scored more combined but I seriously doubt one version came close to that number. The P-51 also fought in the PTO but I as of yet cant find any sort of numbers. And Mike the Ki-100 had like a 370 mph max speed in level flight and a P-51 was something over 400. The Ki-100 was actually not very good at downing B-29's and its a toss up as to if it was a better dogfighter than the Ki-84. This is all just a matter of opinion. -Ray

Sure one. They shot down more fighters than any other in the war. -Ray

Hi Fred, What your main flaw in your arguement is that this is not a free speech server, this is a private server. Free speech doesnt apply to private entities. Also it is a crime in the US to cuss in front of anyone under the age of 18. Plus for everyone else but pirates, its just better to let individual parents not have to worry about thier kids when playing DIF. -Ray

Mist, The P-38 is now +1/+1 and the P-51 is 1/0. The P-38 also has the turbo charger and more armor. I understand this logic even though the P-51 was the best fighter of the war..... -Ray

Nefarious, Most of this has been suggested before. Your #3 I agree with the IMS:D cards as I hate them and always have, but I think the negative burst and damage is ok. -Ray

Only advantage you have Brian is that you live in Texas, you know the place where about half the people carry concealed firearms. I mean if your truck DOESNT have a gun rack, arent you a yankee there? -Ray

I dont think this is important. Macs never were good for gaming in the first place. Viva la PC (Even if the PC is a Mac) -Ray

Haha Mike I was waiting for you to state your case for the Spit. Its why I posted that as I couldnt believe you were silent on the issue. But what was that? Has Kuroi returned? Personally I would rather read a ceral box than that babble you wrote up there about Spitfire this, Spitfire that... Blah Blah Blah. We all know now that the J2M is the best plane in the game. Blah Blah Spitfire this, blah blah Spitfire that, OTS3:4 from a J2M and Spitfire goes SPLAT!!! I am surprised no one has noticed that that the Hurricane II has a better Defensive rating when DAMAGED that when ok. -Ray

I am against a filter! When I find me a pirate, I want to communicate in his language.

By default I used to buy a OTS:3 4 but now i get an ace card. While an ots brings the heat, an ace card keeps you warm and toasty by the fire with Jessica (Simpson or Alba, or BOTH!!!!!). Marshmellows and a bottle of spirits taste much better there than roasting from the heat from your burning flesh! And shooting those sissy little Spitfires down with my J2M makes the little Stalins very unhappy, but it does free him up to go sheep tipping in a field he has made sure doesnt contain landmines!!! See you in Leyte Stalin, dont worry about my 10 point lead. I will be widening it this turn! -Ray

Hi Zanadu, Welcome to the community. You'll get used to it in time. I dont know what skills you buy or what altitude you normally play at but being first to play has advantages. High or VHigh and powerdive reaps rewards! -Ray

Hi and welcome to the community. This game has some luck elements but as one of the better pilots has stated earlier, the better pilot will win most of the time. I think it was either Mistura or Tornado. Air combat was never really balanced but I think similar leveled planes are balanced. As far as realism is concerned, this simulation isnt supposed to be a realistic portrayl of combat. Its supposed to be addictive and fun, which I have no doubt most here will tell you both are true! But I hope you guys give these new features a chance. After a while you will like it more and more. -Ray

Yes there was a testing period for this patch and when you get used to it it will make sense. I think before I have stated that you need to be more defensive. These 1:1 cards can now have BITE guys and playing them will eventually lead you to greener pastures than relying on the big knock out punches. Also a lot of you playing escort missions need to stay within your defensive perimeter more. Sometimes it isnt good to fight even if your bombers are getting railed on. Climb guys, and if you never played the original demo you may not even know why. You also should get to know the planes you are most likely to fly against. One thing I do hate is the IMS: Destroyed card still. Shouldnt be in the game IMHO. No skill in playing it and ACE piloting after. And now there are more of them!. -Ray

BUMPEROONEY

Also Japanese pilots were more about team than individual accolades. And try finding a roster of Japanese bomber pilots. Not as easy as Japanese fighter aces. -Ray

Who is bart? Well I can change my name to bart if I get a cut! I dont think Dan and Brian will like bart cutting into thier profits though. -Ray

Jpg and gif and under 20kb. -Ray

Well sadly any new person I see lately I wonder if they are pirates, especially people who ask newby questions but have full game. And Toorey I suggested the address tie in before. Not sure how good it would work. I will never embrace a pirate and I will shame them if I find them but for my sanity I think I should start to stop thinking about it. Too many things to design and test. -Ray

If I was a developer, I would take that as a compliment. Since I am not, I will take offence to the fact that your statement didnt mention that I am so handsome! Ok what I seriously love most about the upcoming update is that it will make this game more like the first demo. In the original demo, people had lower kill ratios if you wanted to survive. Air combat should be more about survival to fight another day that 4 kill missions. With the wingman not getting all the offense things will possibly change. -Ray

Bob and I discussed it earlier. Stalin was there so I couldnt discuss him modeling the Spitfires new ability to morph into a Brewster Buffalo. Would that be a -2/-6 or a -3/-5? Did I mention that I am beating him 44-25 at start of turn 4 in Leyte Gulf? Seems he doesnt know how to play p-51's to where his Ace lives long enough to make a difference. Zonzo isnt pleased I will bet. VIVA LA KUROI! VIVA LA KUROI! -Ray
