What happend to the Me 163

[✪ Ressult]

So my PC was damaged for some weeks now and today i finally got my parts to repair. But now somehoe im starting with the Me 163 on the ground like any other plane ( RB). How is this a good balance when i have only 120 shots and really low fuel? Thanks for destroying my wt fun, because this is my first jet and its totally useless now.

That's a tough one, how could the fact that your PC was damaged for some weeks be related to the fact that Me-163 now gets airfield spawn in RB?

Maybe if you break your PC again the Me-163 will also get air spawn again? Definitely worth a try since your wt fun depends on Me-163 getting air spawn in RB.

Just trying to understand how in your opinion a difference of what? 800m of altitude is the difference between all your wt fun and a 'totally useless' plane + all your fun destroyed...

The 163 was desined for airfield defence, as sutch was not requred to fly for an extended period of time. It only had to climb to the bombers altutude, shoot down a few planes and then land. Although it probably will be boring try siting around on the runway untill the aribase is attacked by the other team.

Not to be a technical smart***, but it is bugging me: the Me 163 isn’t a jet. It’s a rocket with wings, the Me 262 is the first actual jet.

Komet is a good jet.

It’s a great aircraft, for 6 minutes. Above average performance for 8.0 for 6 minutes or as long as you have 120 rounds, but you run out quickly and now you’re just a very aggressive glider.

so whats the point of giving such a aircraft people who want to enjoy they first jet ( I only play germans)? why not just take it to the end, so experienced people can fly it and you are not forced to invest time for this useless aircraft

It took me like 10 battles to get used to it, it was my first jet ever years ago. It’s a very “baptize in fire” kind of introduction into jet gameplay.

6 minutes are enough to do damage on that plane. It still is one of the best jets in the game, if you know how to aim (which I don't so that plane is nothing for me). Besides, having 6 minutes of fuel is nothing special now. In a Sabre you have to take 6 minutes with you, because otherwise you will be too slow and get crushed early on. Other planes have limited ammo as well, the Me 163 is just a casual jet with an amazing climb rate and extremely small hitbox.

It’s a great jet, but I didn’t say over-performing. It has the size and acceleration advantage, but it does have a lower top speed than most 8.0s. The 3cm guns are not bad, but not the best for jet combat — I would take 4 .50cals over 2 3cms anyday. It is very good at 8.0, but it is not overpowered. Which the 6 minutes or so does have to be accounted for, because otherwise it would just be an equal aircraft for only a small amount of time while a MiG for example could keep fighting up to theoretically 20+ minutes. The aircraft would then just be useless in comparison.
