PzB很喜欢用神风攻击啊,不知道他那些送死的飞行员都是多少经验的
一万年太久,只争朝夕!

2 F3 \+ I7 q; o后期的日本俯冲和雷击就算突防了,也没法在美军强大防空下有所作为。; ~. u9 T! w( _; e- V4 E
PzB也是经过痛苦的抉择和反复的选择后,0 m3 z4 e6 Z7 [2 q. M
现在基本上是用零战52来神风,其他机型就算神风也没有效果。
可能只有战斗轰炸型的零战52才能有足够的机动性命中美舰,另外流星之类的鱼雷机难道就没有机会命中吗?

为什么不转紫电呢.....产量不够是吗.....
他们的房规是自动升级。
自动升级太不公平了,这游戏的空战模式就是一看速度二看火力,隼的一些优点完全显示不出来。
