FW-190: Anton or Dora? DCS Sale

[bruzogiri]

I'm thinking about online play, I have 2 US WW2 planes already. I should get a German plane to play the other side in MP. Which do you think is better  https://100001.onl/ ?

Or should I go for the BF-109?

Go for the one you like more. Each plane has it's own advantages and disadvantages.

As for which one is better, it depends on what you define as "better". Speed? Dora. Firepower? Anton. Cockpit ergonomics? Both about equal.

You should probably go for the BF-109.  The A8 is arguably the worst ww2 "fighter" and the Dora gets nerfed into being painful to play on 4ya's ww2 server.  If they even have a dora slot, it's so far from the action, likely you'd eventually just submit and fly a 109.

Counterpoint to the rear airfield spawns: It takes you a while to climb to an advantageous altitude anyway (the Dora really shines, even without the MW50, between 6000-8000 meters).

I think flying style could be considered when picking one of the three modules. There is no question that the 109 is a better in general at actual dogfighting -- it has better turning ability than both of the FWs and centerline weapons that pack a punch. But If we're talking about survivability, as is often the case on 4YA, I'd say the Dora may be best suited for air-to-air engagements in this regard, as you can usually run and keep your distance if you don't stick your neck out too much.

The Anton, while underpowered with regards to its engine, is no slouch with its armament and its considerable firepower can often make up for less-than-stellar arial gunnery, and is the best suited of the three for ground attack.

I say trial them all and see which one suits you best!
