We are not saying that Spit and K4 never met during the war

@Cunning_Fox, thanks to you for taking time to make a long list of what is wrong with the Spit. I totally agree on all points you've listed. so true, blacks out is to quick compare to K-4, maybe it's because german pilots are slightly more lay down on their sit ? I mentioned this bug on a old thread, telling that sometimes the engine dies for no reason, and you can't repair it ( as sometimes it dies on take off ) but people told me that I didn't know how to fly Spit xD ps: AI in DCS are bugged, they are going outter limit of what is possible with physics, but good way to train as they're cheated

Then, tell me how to fly the spit. I fly the spit on DCS for almost 3 years, please tell me ... Should I run away when I see I K-4 ? I can't he's much faster than me. Should I turn it ? I can't, some really good pilots know how to outurn the Spit. So tell me how do it, despite the fact that 1 bullet in my spit will destroy it. Please Wulf, come more often in Spit in our server when it's full. You'll see by yourself how much is frutrating. Honestly I'm pretty sure you have a good knoweldge on WW2 airplanes, but here we are talking about DCS multiplayer.

If we want historical accuracy, I have certain doubt that aerial suprematy would have been made with only MK IX, fortunalty English had better planes than this spit at the end of the war

For the second one you mean that the plane we already have is not correctly modelised ?

It doesn't mean they can't add new planes to be more balanced, they can keep realism and also keep a fun way to play the game.. I'm talking about this kind of balance for instance

As soon as I get back to the game, I will record session. But now I don't feeling playing this game again for the moment. But as the thread title says: "Do ED teams plays WW2 ?" I would like them to play and be aware what's happening in WW2 servers from their eyes. Because at the moment, I'm not sure they are aware of consequences of their new updates in multiplayer...

That's where you're wrong, ask Amazing how much bullets canon he has to take before his engine failed. btw : "This is completely false" I love the way you're saying that as if you were here and see it in live action ahah

Kramber, I think you miss my point. I would like a perfect balance between realism and fun. Otherwise people will fly less and less Spitfire and Allies in general

Please yes !! that would be a perfect option

Thank you Healer ;)

First I want to say that new DM is really good, thanks for your work. I really enjoy playing the game but, what the heck did you do with germans bullets ? Actually the game is unbalanced, I can touch 50% of my spit's canons before a german planes starts to have engine issues, in the other hand 1 bullet ( 20 mm or 30 mm K-4 canon ) can destroy my spit ... Whoa so much realism, the late 44's K-4 plane destroy my late 42's Spit with one bullet ... so much fun. Seriously guys, do you test your new updates ? don't you have testers that plays on multiplayer ? If you want people not playing the spit ( maybe it's the same with other allied planes, I don't know I only fly Spit ) that's how you do it ! If you want a realistic game, maybe put a later version of spit, if you don't, balanced a little bit more the gap between bullets or plane damage ... Thanks in advances and once again thanks for you works .

Hi, I have notice since last fews updates that spitfire's wings become more and more weak. First I want to share 2 scenarios : 1st scenario: you get hit by a 30 mm on your wing, you have really big holes, you can see your wheel through etc .. 2nd scenario: you get small hit on your wing, you have only small impact, you see some little tiny impact, (not hole, only impacts) --> all the scenarios are in low speed before, when you are in the 1st scenario, if you put to much G on the damaged wing, the wins rip off (even in low speed), it's kind of normal to me, and if you are in 2nd scenario, you can put much G as you want, your wing won't rip off (even in low speed). Now, and since few last updates, even if you are in 2nd scenario, your wing now rip off if you put to much G on it (even in low speed). It's not happening all the thime, but to often. And because it happens not all the time I'm wondering if it's a visual bug, which is we see small impact but they have property of really big hole, or it's not a visual bug and now small impact inherited now the property of big impact. This new damage (when small impact) reduce the survival change of the spit as the only strength of this plane its his maneuverability againt the speed of german planes. Now if we can't turn as we used before it's begin to be more difficult to stay alive.

soon we gonna code DCS to make it work guys

Big thanks for ED team who they did take time to solve a lot of issues who was there since a while. thank you again :)

bug is still present after the last patch yesterday (it's been the 3rd or 4th patch updated since the bug appears). I really hope ED will fix it and won't let it in a corner with dust.

yeah I did, and it's awfull, if I increase the gamma the game looks terrible, and if i decrease gamma I can't see in the game, it's ridiculous. yersterday again, I could see shape of a boeing around 25000 feet with condensation. I really hope ED will have a new studio who will challenge them for warbirds

Sky too dark Actually I'm asking my self why the sky in the game isso dark ? I play on warbirds (that means with no radar) and everytime a plane is above me, I'm struggling really much to trying to see it, it's kind of ridiculous actually. From my place actually, watching sky, I can see Boeing far up in the sky .. so i'm wondering why to choose to put it that dark ? Is there any chance to put sky less darker or put an option for server to choose sky brightness ?

I know, if you fly more than 15 min above 90° oil temp the engine, will die, but I just take a new plane and engine dies after 30 sec of flight, oil temp 80° (just happen right now on burning skies server) and I was 12/13lbs (before wep) 3000rpm

FYI, yesterday been flying on Burning Skies server with Spit for about 4hours, had 2 engines failures for no reason again, temps are good. I'm searching for a pattern why this thing happens. The only thing I did with these 2 planes is a repair on AF, and on my second flight with each plane after repair I had engine failure. it could be one of the reason it's happening, anyway, will continue flying and search for more patterns

it looks like this bug don't appear in solo mission

everything is fine, all temps, no warning lamp, and random failures maybe but it's happens on solo mission and either multiplayer. As I said, if it was a engine problem you will be able to repair it on the AF (right ?). And honestly I don't unsderstand why you never had this issue, all people in my squad had encountered the same bug at least once. It's a bit annoying

Sometimes i'm 28 rpm / 11 boost and my engine suddenly dies, sometimes i'm taking with new plane off 30 rpm / 8 boost same problem, and when i'm in cruiser fly 25 rpm / 8 boost. My temps always looks good, and as I said there is nothing related to engine temp or configuration. (never above 100°). When it's happening, you hear the engine doing a weird sounds, then suddenly your speed decrease like hell (you see it on your speed control), and your RPM going down slowly. It's a bug totally random, and you can't repair it even if you manage to land on the AF, that's why to me it looks like a bug (and I hope i'm wrong). It's hard to reproduce it because it could happens 2 times in a 4 hours of flight and sometimes 0 in 4hours of flight.

It seems that ED fixed the insight visor bug from the last patch thanks. But the engine bug where the engine dies for no reason and it's totally random (and repair on the AF won't do anything) is still there and it's real (in multiplayer or either solo) .. Will ED hear our words and fix it :) The bug is here since the A8 feature update ...

Does anybody knows if ED will fix these bugs ? after severals updates, they are still here, it seems that ED doesn't care or what ?? it's pretty annoying to fly spit at the moment
