I don’t want to spread too much positivity in this perfectly legitimate bitch thread (I agree on almost all points above, for the record), but if we discount the Fokker D.VIIF, the Bristol F.III and the Halberstadt 200hp, we have a pretty accurate planeset for April 1918, weeks before the introduction of the “real” Fokker D.VII and the more widespread conversion of the existing Mercedes D.III(a) blocks to 200hp overcompression. Perhaps this is a better focus than Black September?

 

No matter what happens, the Camel’s top speed is going to remain a hot potato. There’s likely not a single other machine in combat flightsim history where a 5km/h reduction in speed would have such a tremendous impact on the entire game and how it is perceived by the people who play it. It’s not surprising that the devs, who are in their own words not WWI specialists, struggle to see the bigger picture. Optimistically I think we’re 2km/h off (188km/h AMSL) — which is an almost ludicrous change — but I accept that it could be as high as 8km/h (182km/h AMSL). Just, please, no more 165km/h Camel. That’s as bad as the Dr.I we have now.

 

And yes, the Fokker Dr.I’s performance is an aberration, but even that should be fixed before release.

Not to get ot but wasnt the Dr1 fm adjusted due to comments from an actual Dr1 pilot?
