Yeah, im 9.5 hours ahead.
Loving the Hurricane Mk1 C atm. Its going to get a BR increase i think. It clubs hard at BR3.0
Just got the first Firefly but switch to Jap to complete my lineup of their planes, then to work on getting the new German and US planes.
Had a little play with tanks but i generally dont like the play style of tank games. Plus the rubber banding in tank games is much more prominent than in planes. Does my head in to suddenly find myself in a wall.
Liking the much cleaner layout of the fps/ping/packet loss readout though. Overall its a pretty good patch. I do hope that the next patch fixes the MM

The Sea Hurricane MK1 C is awsome, the first Fairy Firefly is rather nice too, that's as far as I have gone so far with the new stuff.
I have only used the Hurricane in a 3.7 line-up so far and it has done very well, so at 3.0 ...ouch. It claimed 8 unfortunate souls in one game, and that was shooting down stuff like Typhoon's higher tiered spitfires and FW190s ...no problem.

I bought the M18 "Black Cat" and took it for a spin during lunch. Wow. The M18 is a BOSS. The gun packs a good punch, has great ammo and the thing is so damn fast you can just completely outflank everyone. It also doesn't die as easily as I would have thought but then perhaps people were just shooting me in the wrong place? :/

I was happily lone wolfing my japs and i noticed a jet on my six.I proceed to get split in half by puppet and he keeps on flying on (most probably heavily damaged). Didn't even notice he was on enemy team till he snuck up on me lol
Soldato
I noticed you just before that while flying up high. My plane actually was still more than flyable even though I hit your plane
There was a guy on your team called Niko or iniko or something, i was focusing him because in the last game I was on his team and he managed 9 kills in a Meteor without dying. He sent me a message after the game haha.
In the next game I lost a wing on my vampire but managed to kill 4 planes with it like that
Edit: got a screenshot of what he wrote. Still waiting for something to "come out for me". Shame I couldnt reply

is there enough interest in creating one?
Failing that just add the regulars as steam friends.
Tried to find you, is that you with the metallica pic in the ocuk main group?

That's what I'm trying to get to, the Tiger and the Panther tank, but it's taking ages to research the tanks leading up to them . I flew through the Russian tanks and I'm causing chaos in my KV2 - T34-57 combo, but really struggling with the PzIV and III's. Any hints on the best combo for the low tier German tanks? I've been using the PzIV F2, PzIV F1, and the Stug IIIF. With their BR though, I'm coming up against the Sherman and KV1 and my armour is like tin foil to their guns. Would it be better to drop down to the Tier 1 tanks?

Also - Tankers may want to take notice of this:

Penetration (fnar fnar) characteristics have been *improved* in the last patch - whether they've got everything right or not is open to debate, but so far the glorious KV-2 squadron has noticed a significant drop in usefulness of the HE shells, but the AP still seems to work quite well.
