Yeah. Some planes do feel like paper now, though. And the fires, oh gods the fires.
EDIT: Man, the guys repaired that broken, flaming wreckage in a minute? That's fast.

Just started playing finally
First match with Japanese planes
Certainly interesting, still don't understand the respawn system
Can't believe I got my wing shot off and still managed to pull off a landing
Pretty fun game though, what control scheme do you guys use?

Mouse Aim for AB, Realistic w/ Joystick for HB and FRB.
Got the Bf-109 E-3 for the Germans a few days ago. That thing is a ♥♥♥♥ beast.
The Beaufighter desperately needs a flight model. Right now it handles like an american BnZ energy fighter. AND it has 4 cannons. In tier 5.

Also, my favourite planes so far are the American F2A-3 Buffalo and the P-40E Kittyhawk.
Especially the Kittyhawk.

I don't know about anyone else, but me and Kettenkrad were having some trouble levelling the Germans so we converted free experience
Oddly it's really easy for me to level with the Japanese

Anyway Stuka fun-times now with minimal effort

Germans get good at ranks 6 and 7. Their early planes are pretty ♥♥♥♥, compared to other countries'.

Yeah I noticed, especially with the burst firing guns
Still I can't help but be overjoyed when flying a stuka and then hearing the siren go off

Beaufighters have a pretty damn broken flight model at the moment.
As do La-5FNs and La-7s. Goddamn Russian UFOs.

Just hit level 4 for Germans, got the He 111 and Stuka. I'm having a lot of fun in the Stuka, even though it's the slowest damn thing ever. I think I'll just play with bombers and fighter-bombers until I suck less. I love this game so far, though. Might need to get a joystick just for it.

EDIT: Natti how did you even >20k XP ;_;
Most I've got was ~5k, from a few well placed bombs..

Iunno, some matches just go very well for me.
Just keep an altitude advantage at all times, stay aware of the tactical situation, locations of enemies and friendlies etc.
I usually only go for fights I know I will win. It helps a lot when you know most planes' weaknesses and strongpoints.

I don't think I've actually come into contact with any Beaufighters yet
Perhaps I'm subconsciously staying away from them

Just a random note that you can test flight any "premium" planes which aren't gifts if anyone is interested

Bombing against cruisers and heavy tanks, always double tap ;)
