After so long playing this game, I almost never get shot down by AI. We are talking maybe once a year. And now it's especially rare as I don't play nearly as much as I used to.
But yesterday I was being chased by an AI ace in a 109F4 and I tried to avoid by pulling into a hard horizontal turn. Usually they can't turn as tightly as a Russian fighter ( I was in LaGG-3-35 ) but for some reason he got lead and shot off my left wingtip. I had to bail but it was over friendly territory, luckily! I was terribly embarrassed with myself though. I mean it being an AI controlled fighter and all.
This is news? Were you flying 1v1 because this happens to me all the time when I fly in missions with more than 4v4 because all the AI seem to focus on me while my wingmen are out looking at clouds or whatever.. I have had 8v8 situations where I had the entire second flight trying to shoot me down as I was tackling a member of the 1st flight.Originally posted by mortoma:
