Hey guys,

Just a quick question...I've read plenty stories about British / French / American pilots seeing 30+ Fokkers flying together in the last days of the war. My question is, can I expect to run into a full J.G. at any point? I personally think it would be awesome to see - although your chances of survival would drop drastically wink

I doubt it. I dont't think any of us have a PC that could handle very high air intensity settings.


make mistakes and learn from them

Think it’s a bit more complicated then that.
I’ve had almost 25 planes before, friend and foe, in close visual range. Sometimes it’s a furball but generally not.
Think it’s more an AI thing as to why all were not alway actively engaged though they probably should have been to my armchair pilot thinking.

You can set up Quick Combat with 20 on a side. Give it a try and see if your rig can handle 40 aircraft. Something comparable in 1918 would put even more pressure on your PC, with all the background stuff going on. Nevertheless, set up a 20 v 20 in QC and watch your framerate.

Oh. Very clever. Not being a QC type - like twice in 10 years to test joystick settings - I absolutely never thought of that.
Very curious now.
