I think USAAF High Command awarded me all the medals at once from this sortie.

So people can see without clicking on it.

not surprised, it is always OP

[StoptheViolins]

Not when in the same game with a enemy competent JL-1 pilot lol.

Still surprises me how the new Ace medal doesn't award a token compared to some of the other token award medals.

Wow..that might be the most credits I've ever seen.

Back when we had birthday missions I flew my NC 1070 with a 5x award, premum account and premium plane reward and made over 700,000 in one battle.  I think I remember someone posting one over 900,000.

I could swear making over $1M on a x5 weekend.  It was ridiculous.

 

I like the performance of the P80, but the guns are weak and take too long to destroy other fighters, which makes up most of the battle.  I prefer the JL for the most part.

 

I do like the P80 against HF or Bombers because the guns don't overheat, it seems I can take out a HF or Bomber faster with weaker guns that don't overheat, than I can with the JL having to wait for the guns to cool.  Not so bad behind a HF... but staying on a Bomber  tail gunner is crazy.

I think the JL really suffers in this version. It just doesn't feel good at all.

The JL Really suffers...

One good game doesn't mean squat... you know better than that. 

 

Get that XP per game up and that DMG per game up. :-)

same happened to Mig-15, its 37mm really takes some skill

to hit. Russian 37mm does not have very good trajectory, and

it overheats in 6 rounds...much like a revolver, plus they take away

aiming reticles which make large calibres like 37mm increasingly difficult

to hit.

Is that why you keep going on and on about you beating me in 1 battle?  I mean, I wish I remembered it, seems like an important life event for you.

 

XP and damage doesnt mean anything, capping and winning does.  Anyone can camp and defend to work their way up the lines... its along the same line of thinking as people hitting GT with HF and LF all game.

Ill take the Mig-15 over the Sabre for the same reasons I listed above.  You have to get closer now in everything, not only due to the removal of lead indicator, that can be resolved with practice, but the erratic and impossible maneuvers performed by bots.  They said they would be fixing that SOON^tm

WR means squat in this VERSION as it pertains to how skilled one is in dogfighting. You can hang onto that if you want. But, it's empty. You aren't that good. You never were.

Dogfighting was removed from the game as everything is decided in the first pass.

Most people that lose make up reasons why winning isn't important.  If you want to make the game about earning exp, that is up to you, that is something you can hang onto if you don't want to adapt to the new meta.

 

BTW... you have to be able to dogfight to cap and win... but that's none of my business.  Its just that, in order to win, you need to cap and hold more territories than the enemy.  Camping 1 spot might get you a lot of kills and a loss.  A lot of people from 1.9 refuse to move on, it takes dog-fighting, which is the current meta, and also strategy, (where to go and what to do) to win.  1 dimensional players will complain that they shot down 25 aircraft and still lost.  So yeah, I don't blame you for not understanding the full game, its why there are special classes in schools.

Generally ppl who have more exp would win more, as the reward for winning is way more than that for loss. In a healthy gameplay(not those staying in t1 farming bots and easy win), players who is capable of winning more have more exp per battle, as you can see the No.1 ranked KAIM_INVICTUS has 74% win rate while an average exp of over 3000.

Yes... my WR/Xp ratio is quite lopsided, mostly due to having great performances in battles where the bots still screwed me over. Heck, I have higher XP per battle than most of the top spots in the HOF.  That is why I say that WR is pretty bunk in this version and Xp is the better measuring stick. But, Marsco has to hang his hat on whatever he can, because he isn't that good, but likes to think he is.
