9.JG27 DavidRed Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) hello guys... i immediately noticed with the first release of 124, that something changed with the P51 dogfight quick mission... i just couldnt kill this bastard anymore.i could turn with this bastard forever, but as soon as i tried to come into a real shooting position, my engine died on me, as it was necessary to turn tighter, bleed speed, and so overheating was the result.every single time.i gain angles on him, and then he tends to turn a little harder...if i just follow him and try to hold the angle difference, everything is fine...if i want to decrease the angle, and turn into him to shoot, my engine dies, or i have to reduce power, which means that he will eventually gain angles on me.so except some lucky shots where i kill this ai ace, i normally have to emergency land after about 20minutes...i never get killed by him though! so this was new to me since 124, and before i killed the ai every single time and pretty quickly. and even now, i kill the ai every single time in my self made p51 dogfight mission, which is pretty much the same like the default one(head on course with AI set to excellent) so yesterday i had a look into the default "P51vsP51 dogfight instant action" mission, and was quite surprised that the skill of the AI was set to average! so i changed it to excellent, had a quick try, and within about two minutes it went down in a burning wreckage. so i changed it back to average skill, and suddenly it was again the unbeatable ace, which flies the engine like a rice cooker without boiling it. so it seems, that those skill levels are mixed up now...i have yet to try out the other skill levels though, but average and excellent indeed seem to be mixed up. EDIT:this is only tested with the P51 though! Edited June 1, 2013 by 9./JG27 DavidRed
