Not agreeing on the trash part, it does some [del]Gypsy[/del] Nippon magic if you work it right, but it just can't keep it's speed except when it's diving or at high-alt.

LOL, best of luck. That plane is borderline unplayable. It's just filler before the sabre. You can maybe kill a pillbox with it and then intercept some poor b17g but that's about it.

Yeah man it's pretty bad for a plane that casually slaughters jets.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;46400717]Yeah man it's pretty bad for a plane that casually slaughters jets.[/QUOTE]
Because the jet pilots are fuckin retarded and go head on with them. Trust me, i've been grinding the japanese treeline for the past 2 weeks (like 8 hours a day). Have a j7w1 on you? just start climbing or even just turn and it loses all of its energy and bam, he's dead. Also, they're fuckin useless when they face f8fs and f7fs. Most them die without ever accomplish anything.

Yeah I am fairly sure that I got the 68% winrate while squadded up with Shibbey in J7W of their own by both of us not accomplishing anything most of the time.

not true, I turned away from a j7w1 and it decimated me, granted it was low alt and about 4 other planes were chasing me because I was the only one left alive [B]again[/B]
turning against japanese planes is a bad idea

J7W1's elevators don't work properly and can't really make sharp turns without losing its speed and energy.

in fairness win rate is not a good metric to measure Japanese planes by, as most Japanese teams are just better than the quite frankly AWFUL teams that they face.
I see teams of Zeroes in high rank battles fuck up teams vastly superior American planes because American pilots are garbage, not because the Zero is a better plane

Ki-61 hei is an amazing plane and A6M3 is the best zero available, what are you trying to say?

I for one do better and mainly have more fun in J7W than I have ever done in Ki-84Hei and N1K2-Ja, and I have both of these elited.

The mod22, mod22 ko and A6M5 are horribly overtiered and by all accounts shouldnt perform as well as they do, but they do well simply because nippon pilots tend not to be as braindead as the majority of the playerbase

that doesnt make it a better plane than either of them because it objectively isnt (with its current broken ass flight model anyway)
I am not saying it's a better plane? I am saying it's a perfectly serviceable plane with it's advantages that can be excellent and potent if used properly.
[editline]3rd November 2014[/editline]
N1K2 and Ki-84 are overpowered as shit if anything.

[QUOTE=aydin690;46400623]No, J7W1 is trash dude. Has like no energy retention.[/QUOTE]
In a turn? Well duh, it's a canard. If you gently nurse it into a climb? Retains momentum absurdly well. Don't slam the elevators, treat it gently
[QUOTE=Covalent;46400643]It does. The Engine Injection upgrade does like +50 km/h, near 5km/h for climb.[/QUOTE]
Ignore the stat cards

Ki-61Hei is an incredible plane. It's just eclipsed by the Ki-84 Ko (which is blatantly overpowered)

Japanese teams are also full of garbage, as are German, British, and Russian ones. Honestly high rank Japan would just be OP if there weren't any jets

canard designs are more maneuverable than their conventional counterparts, not less.

Maybe, but have you looked at the Shinden's canards? They're tiny. The XP-55 had all-moving canards, but the Shinden has tiny little elevators on the already tiny canards. There's not much elevator authority there.

They have better stall characteristics than conventional planes, but won't have a tighter turning circle. Regardless if it's a canard or not, it still weighs 5000kg fully loaded (a loaded 190 A-8, by far the heaviest fighter Focke-Wulf, is 4500kg) with a 20m^2 wing area (3m^2 smaller than an N1K's wings). Not a good turner.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;46401108]canard designs are more maneuverable than their conventional counterparts, not less.[/QUOTE]
Not really, definitely not in this case. A rear winged plane is self-pitch-stabilizing so the plane will actively fight your attempt to turn it. If you have huge full-surface canards of course they gonna make it agile as hell, but that's not the case obviously.
fucking karelia why is it still in the game

phew i died in 30 seconds to a T-34 and was able to start another match on a better map

me and a t-34 killed eachother
better map pls

I just quit matches whenever I get Kursk.
It now apparently locks /all/ crews for 7 minutes.
It will not stop me from quitting Kursk. If it happens, I will go play the other nation. If I immediately get Kursk there as well, I will go play fucking World of Tanks meanwhile.

I wondered that myself when my German KV-1 spawned on top of of some rocks, fell down, and got stuck. Hasn't that bug been around for like two months?
Speaking of German heavy tanks, is the Tiger OP or do the enemy teams just blow loads? I ask because I've played like 10 games in the Tiger and they were all absolute steamrolls.
tiger is far from OP, it doesn't even get APCR because russians
The one Soviet tank that best matches the Tiger at Era 3 is a premium so there's usually a short supply of them and thus the Tiger gets spammed to shit

What the hell tank do you face at Era 3 that you need APCR to kill it before it is in range of your APHE?

You know what I love? When amerifat pilots burn all their energy trying to low-alt turnfight my grorious shining cherry blossom of an A6M2.
They only problem is that they tend to spin out and headbutt the sea before I can hit them.
