A new update, a new complaint-fest.
First it is dropping, then lag, than devices, then D8s, then the server divide, and then the free coins for ads, and on and on. Now someone has gone so far as to say that if you fly a D8, you must not be a good pilot. Boy, I got that plane from Zuperman himself and I've earned every coin I use to upgrade it. I've had cranked out a 6-1 ratio vs those things. They are wobbly if you don't have them fully upgraded.
But beyond that everybody is complaining about something new every day. Think about it.
So here's the deal. We ALL have disadvantages to other pilots. But we all have our advantages as well. And, in time, there are so many variables, it really evens itself out.
Take me for instance. I have a D8, and a smartphone that perfectly fits my hands, which is ideal for head-on. My lag occasionally tosses me to the enemy base. Thus, I choose to play bombing missions and shoot head on.
However: my D8 is only half upgraded. and I'm on a galaxy s2, which lends itself against turning. I'm easy pickings for anything near a competent turnfighter. When my internet isn't screwing me over, my slowly deteriorating processor is, lagging my controls. So I choose NOT to play Dogfight, Defend Zeppelin, and Ctc missions.
My second-best plane is a Spad. Decent at turning, but not ideal for head-on against a D8, as if I needed another reason to fly German. That's the way I play best, and I'm obviously gonna do it

So, to all you who complain about overpowered devices, planes, lag, dropping.... Think about what you advantages are, and play to them, instead of telling others to forfeit theirs, just because they're smart. But don't you dare tell me I'm not very good, just because I play smart. Or I might just be forced to shoot you, head-on, in a bombing mission, in my D8.
You're getting predictable, guys. You can do better, right?

some of us would actually prefer a more fair and balanced game where there is not just 1 person w the stones to fly allied and usually vs a flock of d8s! Its too hard to find a game that has even numbers on each side, and when something affects the gameplay to that level should we not complain? And if its such a bother why complain about complaining?

I think lack of stones is getting too confused with intelligence. I'm not complaining about the complaining, just pointing it out and letting people know it's pointless.
I've seen almost a half-dozen issues far more divisive than this D8 thing, and Zup never significantly changed the game for those either. He's perfectly aware of the seeming over-power of the D8. Before he added the plane, he asked us if we wanted it. We (the community) said yes.
You're getting predictable, guys. You can do better, right?

Any body can fly a d8, albatros, spad etc. yes, some planes are built better and have advantages, but it mostly depends on the pilot in the plane, than the plane itself, if a four year old hopped into a f-18 and flew into a dogfight against an old WW2 p-40 flown by a an ace, the p-40 would win because they have the most experience, even if it is a flying trash can you can win, if you are an experienced pilot, you can fly anything and win, the disadvantages of bieng the one in the junky plane, can be avoided when you know how to fight a d8 etc. and win in real life, if flown by a professional the f-18 would win but, when flown by a young inexperienced pilot the p-40 pilot would know more tricks to avoid gunfire, and to shoot down the f-18 even though the f-18 is much faster and better armed ;)

ok I dare you to put that to play, fly a D8 with the lowest level you can find, and shoot them down in a turn fight while they have no bombs

I don't have a d8. I also don't have the top tier allied plane. I'm still flying the dr1 and the se5, not because I choose to, but because I don't have enough coins to buy em and soup em up and prefer to earn it rather than buy it. I can tell you this; there are some days when the d8 resembles a flying paper tiger and I lite it up relentlessly and other days when I couldn't hit the thing with a bat if it was parked out back. What is the difference between these two outcomes you might ask? Me. I'm still just in my se5 on both occasions playing on my ipad2. It's not the plane, it's the pilot that makes the difference. I've been at this game for a while now and was around when we were thrown to the wolves straight away, none of this minor league server bs. Guess what, it made me get good real fast cause who wants a constant beat down. I've never had a negative k/d ratio. Ever. All that hard work and time invested has put me on cusp of MORAF with only a measly 225k to go :blink: Heres an idea ladies and gentlemen, strap on a pair and learn how to play the game! I don't particularly like the head on pass so I change the angle or elevation to get the advantage but if it's a night when I'm on, I can and have knocked anyone and everyone out of the sky no matter the rank or experience. Shut it up! Suck it up! Shoot it up!!!

Jacklpe, you crack..................me up!

Hee haw!

I'm not trying to downplay the d8 in a head on match. It's gawd awful to try to hit... But, hey, a new challenge to the game. I swear the Sopwith reaches up on its own and high fives bullets. Once again, a new challenge. I've had enough guys kill me easily in my d8 to know that it's not invincible. Eventually, most of us will figure out the tricks and forget about it.

yellou! usted dice, el expirencia, y la habilidad del piloto es correcto sin valor? porque conozco mejor y muy equivocado, usted ha dicho que le gustaría ver a estos pilotos veteranos con un plano inferior derecha? porque yo voy a dejar de capturar, por desgracia o no tiene que creer lo que otros, pero ningún testigo puede hablar de esto con ellos, pero creo que muchos planos superiores para bajar la cara mio.con bomba a cara fueron cayendo una y otra vez, que lo que cuemte yemix jeje.y-bomba más lento aunque mi avión, podría derribarlos muy bien.amigo amarillo! todo lo qe tengo me ha dado la experiencia de conducción, horas de vuelo y sobre todo anticipar ememigo antes de girar sabe qué hacer y también pillo.la habilidad hace que esquivar balas sorprenden y duran más en el cielo. Yo cuando digo, aprendo! es porque es la única manera de mejorar el mismo, para derrocar al D8. He incluso serás efectivo.AI aman volar aviones y voy a ver varios que maximo.Ojo probar el rendimiento! También puedo asegurarles abajo. (Dejen de quejarse y crecer como pilotos) que es mi parte de asesoramiento.

yellou! you say, the expirencia, and driver skill is worthless right? because I know better and much mistaken, you said you would like to see these veteran pilots with a lower plane right? for I'll let you capture, unfortunately or not have to believe what other, but no witnesses can discuss this with them, but I believe many higher planes to lower pump mio.con face to face were falling again and again, that what cuemte yemix jeje.y-pump slower though my plane, could shoot them down very bien.amigo yellow! qe everything I have has given me the experience of driving, flying hours and especially to anticipate ememigo before turning know what to do and also pillo.la skill makes you dodge bullets surprise and last longer in heaven. I when I say, learn! is because it is the only way to improve yourself, to overthrow the D8. I've even you will be efectivo.A I love flying planes and I will see several I maximo.Ojo proving the performance! I can also assure you down. (Cease to complain and you grow as pilots) that's my advice regards.

The baron is correct, I can fly the lowest planes and still carve up most players under air marshal. I do it on a regular basis to hone my skills. The plane doesn't make the pilot, many of those hard to hit guys have 2+ years under their belt. The are just asdeadly and hard to hit in the dh2.
