    LoL!! I was going to give you and Orion some dance lessons.

    Would you believe the planes are back now? Data still gone though. I did nothing other than restart the game again. Oh well "Dancing With the Haz" shall begin.

    hmmm well what do you mean? i need to get my kdr down but i get bored playing other people that just do flips and crash. I like playing everyone thats on here its challenging but good practice for sure.... BUt yeah id take some pointers if you think there are some things that you could tell me if you dont mind? I only have bought that airplane and want to try the zero III but that airplane seems to hmm... (im not complaining about it fly what you want) but i think they need to take it down a notch the fire power head on with me will always win and the armor is stronger to. They could keep that the same i just think when they bail out it seems like you could be right on them not that far out of range and it lets it slide... but yeah it makes it fun for me especially with Nelge hahah your a good at this game dude... But yeah im open for any pointers from any of the old timers

    I mean u're skilled and your kill rate or kdr will increase if u use Z3. Corsair has these problems:
    1) it's a very long plane. The body length is the target in the game. The wings are not considered as target in the game. So it's a big target for people to shoot at.
    2) it stalls at fairly high speed.
    3) it's firepower is at the lower range among the planes with 4 stars rating in firepower.
    4) it's armor is likewise weak.

    NonZ3 planes that are better than Corsair and with handling same are:
    Yak-3-I (smallest plane and next highest firepower after Z3)
    FW190-II
    Mustang-II
    Hien-II

    The above list are sorted from what I think is the best to the worst.

    That was a good game. I was really impressed that you did so well against those players that were in there in a Corsair. Pairodice is a good player as well as HE. They were both in zero III's and you were racking up some kills on them :) Shern is right, you should try the zero III the Yak and the Mustang II. The zero III really speeds up the pace of the game, and that is what you start to really like about it. It's fun zipping around at high speeds. Also look at it this way, you know you are good enough to get the better of some really skilled players flying Zero III's in a Corsair. At the end of the day, it really is a players skill that is the determining factor. When you go up against other really good players and every one is in the best plane, that's when you can really start to appreciate the skills of your opponents. Not to mention that those are the games that are always going to be the most challenging and fun :)

    Thank you to the both of you for your help .... im not much of a i guess gamer and just happened to come across this game one night and started off with the free demo version and after that i play it everyday since december. Games addicting but yeah thats why i sometimes during the day you will see me sign in real quick play for a little and leave i know thats annoying but thats because im in class trying to play with out getting caught especially fun at school cause we have T3 connection there and its really smooth when i play. But yeah looks like im going to have to go buy an Itunes card after i pick up my paycheck from work right now and test them out. But yeah i do understand trying to make tight turns with the corsair vs a zero is pretty hard for me and have tried different ways and get lucky sometimes. But yeah thanks again for the help you guys always help people and are friendly to people who have questions and because of that this game is getting bigger and bigger because people enjoy the challenge and positive feedback you guys give. Even though we are not on teams for the help i will usually shoot anyone trying to take you guys down first and if you guys are smoken and have a couple of them on you cause i know they like to go after the top guys first haha. SO yeah if your smoken and were in a game and im not shooting at you but headed right towards you ima take the guys that think there aces out first then fair game ill knock my wings iv tried to do it before but end up just not shooting and getting blown out the sky.... Again thanks for the help and ill see you guys on later after i go pick up my pay check and when i get back you might see me in a new plane

    Glad you got that working, sounds like that was an odd problem.

    Alright then, I'm about to hop online here in a second... let the riverdance begin! :)

    That is interesting...based on what you said here the Z3 has more firepower than the Yak-3-I, but the in-app market rates the Yak at 5 stars for firepower, whereas the Z3 is only at 4 1/2 stars. So have planes been readjusted or are the states in the market wrong?

    haz...were you elfhntr? if not, someone else was.
    i took care of them and then they left.

    i wonder who it was....

    btw, i've lost connection a bunch of times tonight, plus i've had some 'vibrating screen' issues where my screen shakes endlessly while making a vibrating sound. sometimes when this happens, my weapons fire non-stop as well.

    everytime i try to grab a screen shot, the photo looks perfect!

    ugh!

    The planes are been adjusted in the server by SGN and so the planes are not performing according to the stats! Only the P38 is correct. I've been complaining in the facebook again and again and the reply I got is they are not going to change.

    These are the actual stats for the 4 top planes:
    Plane: speed/armor/firepower/handling (bracket is the written stats)
    Zero-III: 5/4/5/5 (4/4/4.5/5) - increase in speed and firepower
    Yak-3-I: 4/4/4.5/4.5 (4/4/5/4.5) - reduce in firepower
    P38-L-I: 3.5/5/4.5/4 (3.5/5/4.5/4) - no change
    Mosquito-II: 4/5/4.5/4 (2/5/5/2.5) - increase in speed and handling but reduce in firepower

    :( :(

    You mean they said they made them untrue from their own ratings in the game? They deliberately made them false as related to the specs we saw when we bought them? That's inconceivable. It's dishonest. I PAID for the Star Rating I was looking at when I made my decision to purchase the planes I've bought! And I got something else?!

    Shawn, you going to stand for this? It's crazy if true! And very bad.

    You guys gotta see this...

    Soo I was just going to jump on and play a few minutes.

    I take up the patriotic P38 then I get out of a game and decide to take up the Yak instead.

    This was the result.
    I was so shocked it was hard to take good pictures and I was getting shot the second I dropped in the game.

    Wow, that's pretty messed up. From what I gather, SGN isn't very good about responding to customers? I haven't gotten into F.A.S.T., but it seems from the thread on this site and the user reviews that they mucked that one up badly. It's a shame, because I'd love to get into that one as well.

    Yup. That's a bug that's quite common in this game. They still have not fixed yet. But I don't mind they not fixing this bug. It can looks cool on the plane. I really want them to fix the discrepency between the actual and the written stats.
