So with the bomb sight, if im at an odd angle, and drop a bomb, will it fall on the direction indicator, or the crosshairs, or somewhere in between?

Is there a cap on free xp?

Finally unlocked the first bomber, the B-24, and it seems like it has a pitiful bombload. I've had the PBY for a few levels and that seems like a better bomber. Will the B-24 get better with experience?

Rhopunzel posted:Yep! That was hilarious. I had like 4 teammates in chat telling me what to do Flaps! Pull up Turn slow Only rudder Dive Climb Etc! It's a small world, though. edit: I was flying low in a B-25, Rhopunzel flew by, blew my stabs off and then figured I'd crash and he flew off to find other targets (I was the only guy left). I managed to get combat flaps up and keep the nose up long enough to drop a full load of bombs and almost complete a turn back to home base when I finally crashed.

So with replays, is there a good way to capture video? Seems like you can't step backwards, so you have to FF to where you think the action is, pre-plan a good camera angle because it seems like switching on the fly is cumbersome and hope you capture it? I ask because I'm pretty sure I dealt the killing blow to a PBY by aileron rolling over the top and knocking his prop off with my wingtip and surviving...but I am not sure and if it's true I'd like a gif or video of that because it was pretty boss.

Generation Internet posted:So after several violent deaths, I went back to my high altitude base-bombing ways in my B-17. Easy money that's consistently profitible with the lower reapir costs. What I don't understand is how I can draw 4-5 fighters who will spend the entire game climbing to 9000 meters to kill me even after I stop bombing the base and my team still loses, even though they were effectively down by that many players. Is base bombing viable? It seems like it gives so little xp...

I had a great one where I landed, capped, then took off, bounced once and broke my landing gear, slid (got second set of landed xp) then struggled into the air and completed the match.

After asking us "Is this a Carrier or a Destroyer" and then attempting to land, gear down, from the front of the carrier... this is the end result Oppenheimer's attempt.

jadebullet posted:So just curious, what is the best way to make money in this game. I only ask because I am currently saving up for a particular plane, and just want to fast track my way up to it. Are you against throwing real money at it?

mlmp08 posted:I happened to be in town at the time for a wedding, and figured I'd see what was going on in St. Louis. I got to fly a simulated combat mission on a Huey last summer which was a dream come true...but a B-17 is probably number 2 on the list.

My favorite is when someone tries to ram me, but they blow up and die and I am either fine, or able to limp back to the airfield.

How long until we can do... I actually wonder if adding contrails to high level bombers might "balance" them?

I had a guy chase me in my A-20 for probably 4 full bombing runs, only stopping shooting at me when he was reloading. All he did was finally blow an engine and I landed safely in a field. I wonder how bullshit he was.

Flying a ton of b-17's is exactly what I want in this game so even though he looks like a douche it's still pretty awesome.
