 Is that 5% either while diving or while boosting?

or only when boosting and diving?

 

It is 5% to acceleration when boosting and 5% to acceleration in a dive. 

[hoom]

So if I boost in a dive I get 10% acceleration?

[trikke]

so boosting in a dive gets you 10%       or am i missing something?       well, that's certainly noticeable, even for me

Stuff and Nonsense

 

Seriously?  This game took years to patch a known and document bug, and you're suggesting that the devs tweak the algorithms on a daily/weekly basis???

 

In other news, water is wet, the sky is blue, and the Earth is round, and NOT supported by a stack of turtles.

How do you know

Have you been to the edge of the Earth ( flat and round like a pizza ) 

looked over the edge.

Have you seen the turtles

 

[losttwo]

last time I boosted I got arrested

Come to find out that finding a car is the same as boosting one. 

[qu33kKC]

losttwo, if you can see the turtles, you've eaten the rong mushrooms again.

 

just sayin'.

First, thank you for the breakdown of the missions. Only improvement I recommend is details of required achievements. 

For example "Receive theThunder achievement" What type aircraft can earn this achievement? What are the exact requirements?

Every mission/campaign I find myself having to look up this information. Even the in-game info can be vague concerning requirements. Does it need to be done in one battle or sortie?

Flying Revenge wasn't working for me with 120+ sections destroyed in RB-17 and EF-131. Skipped that one.

Of course the Earth is round, if it was flat...cats would have knocked everything off the edge by now.

Technically it won't be exactly 10%. Let me explain on numbers (numbers are random, just as an example).

 We have here two kinds of acceleration: acceleration with boost (let's say 10) and acceleration in a dive (let's say 90). So, acceleration with boost in a dive will be 100. 

Then, we'll add 5% to each of them. So acceleration with boost will be 10.5 and acceleration in a dive will be 94.5.  Acceleration with boost in a dive will be 105.

More than rusty, sir - it's not even French

 

According to Google Translate, it's Spanish and says "Good morning, can someone support me with the mission Cadman Miller The Bombardier as I finished the mission with the endorsement of the certificates but they did not assign me the B-17G bomber.  What can I do, good morning greetings."

 

 

[Captain_Underpants53]

I meant that in a cheeky way.  I do know a bit of Espanol, just not enough to know what he said.

 

As to his question, he can work for the bomber to put Dudman Miller in.  I am not sure it is worth the effort as I have been quite disappointed with this Special Pilot.  This event does not give you the B-17G, only Dudman.

I intend to put him in a fast plane, maybe a P-47 -> 'dat up to 10% extra boost acceleration

Maybe but you sacrifice some skill points.

I completed the series of Missions this afternoon, and didn't use a single certificate.

 

Had a perfectly decent test flight with him, just under 12k, 11 targets and 4 sectors whilst downtier.  DaHurt outscored me in his B-17G, but my side got the win.

 

PS:  big thanks to Zigfreid for the suggestion on getting past the "50 armored segments" mission.
