World Of Warplanes: The XP-67, Life After The P-61 Nerfs
The January 2024 rebalancing of the P-61 means the tier 8 twin engine American light fighter, the McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat, is given space to be competitive and even to shine. This is a reassessment of the plane, where I explain that, now, not only is a "high energy" build suitable for the plane, but also a manoeuvrability build. I illustrate what the latter build, previously not a choice I favoured, can do with an ace in battle.

Randomly was recommended this video. i find it really charming and nice that there ARE people who like WoWP. I played like a handful of matches pre 2.0 and i didnt hate it but it wasnt my thing. Ive played it here and there post 2.0 and i still dont hate it but can tell its better and leave it installed and boot it up every so often to play a match or two.

I'm glad you like the video and it sounds like your approach means you're having fun when you do play the game. Good news! :)
Thanks Q ... I have both and I agree the XP-67 is now a Baddass Fighter !

I think the neutering of the P-61 has unleashed the potential of this plane as well as given breathing space to all the other fighters. Candidly, the P-61 should never have been put into the game configured so that it was both a light fighter and a heavy fighter. it's a pity we've spent a year thinking how to build our planes to counter it or running away from it.
If you can ask the developers to 1) make it harder to dismiss a pilot like in world of tanks ( you have to put a Code before dismissal) 2) make it easier to purchase custom paint from the premium shop . Categorize Tiers and Nations . Takes me 8 minutes to find aircraft that matches what I have .

It was just an off-the-cuff thing I threw together, really! Thank you.
Could you please explain the reassembly process and maybe calibration too, if you think that would be helpful? For me, I haven’t done anything with that and wonder what’s the best way to go about it. Thanks for your contributions to WoWp knowledge!

Though it's a simple process, I think that may be better handled in a #shorts video. I'll see if I can produce one on the topic.
Thanks Q

Your target selection and moving between targets is very nice

I make a lot of use of the 'battle interface' control, 'lock nearest target', which is bound to key X in my case. If I'm in a fighter, the moment I destroy a target when I'm in a furball I press that key to identify what is nearest to me. Usually - but note, not always - that's the target I want to attack next. As the control works through targets sequentially, that is, if you press it once it marks the nearest target to you, press it again it marks the next nearest, and so on, I find it useful with heavies where often I will press the key twice or even three times to identify a new target, since I may not be able to turn on the nearest one.

Where did Thomas/Angri_Chilli go from Twitch? There is information? Good afternoon!

In my experience Angry_Chilli takes regular breaks from the game, sometimes quite long ones, then returns. I'm not aware of any reason why that would not apply on this occasion. It will be good to see him back when he returns!

I agree the 67 can outmaneuver the P-61 , both before and after the nerf……the 67 can now more easily outmaneuver the 61. Enemies still have to deal with gunner.

I would have said that, since you wouldn't have been at the edge of the Moonbat's manoeuvrability you wouldn't take as long to deal with a P-61 as you would have previously, you wouldn't take as much damage from the turret. However, it looks like it may be a moot point; the number of P-61s I've seen in battles on the EU server since its rebalancing has dropped considerably. Not only is the P-61 less of a threat if you encounter one, it seems you're much less likely to encounter one.

There is a small number of streamers of the game in the Western world, who can mostly be found on Twitch. I'm one of them. There's a larger number of Russian streamers, mostly found on Trovo or KZread. However, it's true that WoWp is nowhere near as popular as its sister games, World Of Tanks and World Of Warships.
