All hopes on 5.0 then :)
I started practicing shooting up some Spitfires offline in 409m, I know what you must think: "Brain there's so much new stuff and you're STILL kicking Spitfires with a FW?!" but what can I say - old habbits die hard :lol:

It's not habit it's an obsessive fixation, trust me I know I'm suffering from it a very long time nowImage. Only difference is I used to usually chase them with 109.

I don't know what makes a Spitfire so "juicy" target... I really can't tell.

To add to confusion I also like to fly it sometimes... particularly the HMG equipped version 8-) .

Some habits are good, don't give up on them :lol: , but you should try new planes , they are really top class models. Just sitting in Fokker cockpit is pure joy.

And flying on Slovakia map in Avia is great for relaxing after hard day.

Had a quick look on HL and didn't see any 4.09m servers :o

However, the game loads in half the time on my PC and offline, the new planes seem very nice indeed. :)

Too early for that. Most of the servers run mods and they need time to adjust mods to run on 409.

Just flew some test missions... hehe as expected in fight Fokker is a real dog, but can outdive those eager VVS crates 8-) .

Madsen cannons would give us the edge we need :twisted: (head ons :lol: ).

I don't doubt that AAA people will soon release pit for it :? .

Apparently they already fly G.55 :| .

Adding cockpit from other plane is 5 minute work, to make some "frankenpit" they need more time. Of course somebody could make proper pit for it but those who can do it would offer it to us anyway. Any good modeler have interest to get his work in official patch, that's always good reference for other jobs.

Fokkers are fun, Viikate really made them beautifully but making FM was PITA, fixed pitch props are hard to make in Il2.
