My Problem With the F-4J in WOV
rlwicker1967 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
First, I just started flying WOV again after the Windows 10 update problem. I've always hated the FM of the Phantom J in the game. Now, I say it's the FM but, I think it's something with the FM when it's flown by the player. There is far too much drag when flown by a player. Reasons I say that? I'm flying a 2 ship single mission MiG CAP with 2 tanks, 4 radar, 4 heat. I power out in Full ABand can't get above Mach 1. Now, I didn't wait for number 2. Yet, by the time I get to 15K, he's almost caught up to me. So, I cut the throttle to get him close. Then, I go to full AB and start heading toward the waypoint. Number 2 accelerates with me WITHOUT AB. Every once in a while number 2 goes into AB only to have to shut it down so he doesn't pass me. Screenshots show Lead in full AB while number 2 smokes in MT. Was there a fix for this that I missed? Do I need to lose some weight or something? FWIW, I really like the way the Phantom E flies and that one can do over Mach 1 without AB. Any assistance or insight is appreciated. img00001.bmp img00003.bmp
