Finally downloaded this. In my first game I shot down 3 planes with a Hurricane I, and in the second game 2.
Ace in a day \o/
The game looks incredible with all the bells and whistles turned on, AND there are settings or mixture, trim, prop pitch, radiators etc in the realism mode, brilliant!
Was that HB or Arcade?
Anyway I had a really cool round yesterday... I took my Spit II for a spin, the map was Malta, as I was climbing I was writing something in chat, and as my joystick is kind of broken my plane started diving on its own... I yanked the stick forward to level and I realised I was still losing altitude... Apparently my engine decided to die after that dive...
Great, I thought, the battle hasn't even started and I'm already out of action... As I pulled back on the arfield to repair I had a really awkward landing that totalled my engine, and finally after 2 minutes waiting I was back in action. To my suprise the battle was still heating up, although lots of enemies were already downed. I managed to score an assist versus a 109.
And then I noticed there was a bomber trying to retreat to his airfield on my left wing. I hurried after him and with a skilled (or rather lucky) shot of my 20 mm cannons blasted the pilot out of the cockpit. As I was flying back to the airfield thinking the show was over I noticed some guy in a Macchi 202 was trying to take off the strip in the middle of the island (it was an objective). I sent that bastard tumbling out of the airstrip in the hot Mediterranean Sea.
All in all, the round started quite bad, but it turned out quite nice, 1 assist, 2 kills and 3 ground targets nailed. Around 30k creds (they seem to have nerfed the rewards)
