Afk being the key part of that. Climb rate plummets if you hit 270. Ki-84 has to drop angles very sharply quite often and you can lose a fuckload of altitude because of that. Do you use its air start to zoom climb or do you just pitch up straight away?
K, let's assume it climbs better than p51s, then what? It still has super shitty guns.

not really
[QUOTE=aydin690;46168163]That shvaks and japanese guns are fuckin garbage?[/QUOTE]
no, its just like you keep saying that japanese and russian planes are garbage, people keep giving reasonable responses as to why that isnt true, and how you can fly them effectively
and then you still just go "well no it still sucks fuck you" for basically no reason other than to whine

Better roll rate, turning circle (both horizontal and looping), energy retention, acceleration, much better at low alt.
Worse dive speed. Less firing time total.
shvaks and japanese cannons are objectively worse than the other cannons in the game. Or are you guys going to say that's not the case?

no they are perfectly field-able, you are just used to the instakill triple mounted minengeshoss doomcannons that the Germans get

Bad guns doesn't mean you can't get behind someone or evade them. And if you can't kill someone with 300 cannon shells maybe you aren't good at shooting who knows
Just unlocked me410 b6. It's the fuckin shit. In one match i killed 5 b17s (but the fifth one set me on fire so i died too).

That's my problem though. I have to use 300 "cannon" shells to take down one plane. "Hit, hit, hit, *no crit*, hit, spark, spark, spark, spark, hit, hit, *still nothing critical*, spark, spark, spark. Shit i'm out of ammo/i'm on fire and this b25/b17 is still flying."
Usually aiming for the wing - fuselage connection does the job of wrecking a bomber.

Thanks for the info, i've been aiming for the fuselage all this time. /S
upload some replays or something because you are pretty clearly doing something wrong if you cant bring down a B25 with 300 20mm rounds
a B17 Im not surprised really because every 20mm (unless it has minengeshoss) has trouble with those
[QUOTE=aydin690;46172482]Thanks for the info, i've been aiming for the fuselage all this time. /S[/QUOTE]
Yeah that's, like, the absolute worst place to shoot because all you'll do is maybe kill the tail gunner.
Aim for the wing root or the engines. Or the pilot if you like high-risk gambling.

Don't shoot from behind. Dive on from above so you get the entire top of their plane to shoot at, it's a bigger target.

or come up from below because it makes you much harder to hit in gunners view
Say, it's possible for an armor-piercing and/or explosive round to penetrate the bomb bay and detonate the bombs? Like ammo rack detonation in Ground Forces
Just curious

I don't think it's possible. Would be cool if you could do that though.
[QUOTE=Teippiman;46174345]I don't think it's possible. Would be cool if you could do that though.[/QUOTE]
I think it is but it's just really hard to tell what's doing the exploding part.
According to the devs the explosions are fuel tanks, and that they've never seen any evidence that bombs should blow up from being shot so they're not putting it in for now.

your issue is that you're trying to kill a B-17 in a fighter that doesn't have a 30mm cannon in it. B-17 flight models are completely broken. Its no surprise you can't kill one when you aren't running a 30mm.
As for the B-25, maybe you just suck.
Does anyone remember what that youtube vid was called, with someone crashing into other planes in an Arado, while there was some islamic music going on?

I think it got taken down though. I'd be willing to bet it was the flag in the corner.
