Great review as always, thanks. Pretty mediocre plane if you ask me, though I love how it looks. And surely would play it because of its superb appearance))
Great video on the newest mission reward plane. As always I enjoy your in-depth examination of the XF4U-6 (and all reviews for that matter) and will definitely be using Elise Clark in it to get the maximum maneuverability build once I finish the 30 part grind. I don't have the ability to tune in to your live stream on Sunday morning as I'm in the USA (Eastern Standard Time and currently Daylight Standard Time) and I go to my church at 8:00 am until noon (no worries). On the July 14th stream when you flew your F4F you never once used your engine cooling to get to another sector faster (an oversight for sure.). On another matter of interest, I like your bomb site and would like to know what mod pack that came from... thank you. Your tracers are good too but I had found an old Russian mod pack a few years back from (I believe 2017) that I got a very good tracer mod from that I am happy with while not using anything else in that pack to avoid breaking my game because it is so out of date. Yes, the Daily Missions display is definitely badly bugged. I completed them last Saturday, got 3 new ones on Sunday that showed all completed (obviously wrong), got a few battles in on Sunday to work on them, only to wake up Monday morning to see that all 3 had been replaced again. The WoWp team really needs to fix these annoyances but alas they likely won't. They can't even admit to making the bomber class OP and do a class nerf on them (especially the high tier tail gunners) so what chance have we got to get the many other annoyances fixed. Even the blue sky of death bug where when you open a crate that has premium days in it the game freezes on the sky forcing us to have to shut down and restart WoWp hasn't been fixed entirely yet... oh well. I hope you don't end up like Postal Monkey in that the death of a family member has forced him to need to work a lot more and thus he has had 0 time to play WoWp and thus no new videos have come from him in 7 months. I wish good health to you and your family and look forward to you next plane review, the Japanese Kyushu J7W3.
Thank you for your kind words. :) I tend to conserve boost and use it for fighting (specifically, to counter players who like to zoom skywards, where boosting after them is the best way to maintain contact), so I'm cautious about using boost just to get around the map. The bomb site is a mod by Oleqsa, but I don't think he publishes them anywhere. There is a #mods section in my Discord where you can find it. I don't think I've done anything with the tracers, unless I've accidentally applied a mod I didn't intend to apply! The chevrons bug on the daily missions is a nuisance. Regarding Postal_Monkey, well, from your keyboard to the eyes of the gods. I'm lucky, what with the loss of vision a couple of years ago and other issues, that I still have time and the capability for any video games. All the best to you and yours!
Just like always, you have the most detailed reviews of the plane, well done! I think that on tier 7 MFs can't impact battle too much and XF4U-6 is not an exception. There are much more bombers, HFs and LFs that decide the outcome of the battle. And when it's tier 8 battle XF4U-6 can hardly impact anything at all.
I believe there are *some* battles at tier 7 in which it will have a strong impact. I agree that's much less likely at tier 8. Still, I enjoyed playing this plane.
In that lull on the ground battle, I would go ahead and shoot at some of the unarmored sections. Probably won't help flip the zone much faster (if at all) but it will certainly add some personal points (and thus xp and credits) to the post battle haul!
I'd endorse that. I was surprised by how effective the guns were against ground targets. You saw me mopping up targets that had damaged armoured sections quite easily in the first battle, though clearly I need to be a bit more aware of my opportunities!
I just finished watching your July 14th Sunday stream to the end. You commented that WoWp has asked you to play test new planes before they get released. That is fantastic as you can give the devs. great feedback to improve the new plane before it is dropped into the game. Now if only you could slip in some suggestions on much needed rebalancing on many of the existing planes. Out of the 177 planes I have I'd say I only fly about 20% of them as the others are just not good enough for me to win battles. Some are outright junk that I would never fly (the Potez 540 immediately comes to mind, way too slow). Some are just not competitive with the veteran bot capabilities (some of the Russian light fighters (Yak-1, 1M, and I-210 for example). And of course we all know what Wg needs to do about the bomber class imbalance. We can hope that the WoWp dev team is wanting to make WoWp a more fun and fair game and not just try to do a cash grab and ruin this game permanently as Wg has done with WoT.
Hi! 1) Testing: the WoWp team doesn't ask me to test every new plane. 2) I do comment about what I see as issues in the game now and then, but it's clear the small WoWp team has its own ideas about what to try to improve in the game. 3) I won't stop trying! 4) Probably it's worth noting members of the team live in Ukraine, which is at war.
Its just me or this game is getting some player base recently cuzz i don't have problem on joining the matches lately and there is always around 5 or 6 player on each side btw great video❤
Thank you! It's a little difficult for me to say because I'm bouncing between the EU and NA servers a lot currently, but I think the Corsair event has drawn in more participation. What I don't know if it's the same players playing more because the grinds in the event are, in some cases, long ones.
It's fair to say that it has a small, but quite enthusiastic, player base. Thanks for having a look even if the video wasn't what you thought it was initially!
Not really; I'm lucky enough to have access to a press account and sometimes the WoWp team asks me to test new planes, so I have the opportunity to collect material for these videos. They made me work for it this time though! :)
I know the pilot that said that marksman I hurts performance and he plays on the EU server, and most of the NA top pilots he's referring to consider marksman I specifically not good without marksman II.
@@pedro1_1 You're right, that's how I understood him and, understanding his vast experience and respecting it, I beg to differ. I think it is useful on its own. However, that doesn't mean it's a skill that obviously is better than, for instance, Battle Tested and each person will make their own judgement or do their own testing.
The plane is broken People underestimate it because its at the hardest tier to play and the MR class is perhaps the hardest one to play. But come on it has the speed and maneuverability of a corsair with the ground damage of a P47N, its just dumb. Also the 20 mm that it carries are way better than the ones in the standard corsair. Just got it today and in both games I did over 600 capture points and over 30k dmg to ground attack sector (10 ground targets in first game, 5 in the second but in the second they were tje big structures at the mining plant)
In my opinion, over the long haul you won't find it dominating games all the time, or even most of the time. However, it is capable of good games in the hands of a good player, which clearly you are.
@@TheNobleQfor a tier 7 MR it has way higher strengths than its counterparts. You are right in that it wont dominate the matches but that is due to the fact that it is a tier 7 and it will face more often than not tier 8 and thus way more overpowered planes. But the fact that is better than pretty much every other 7 multirole makes it in my eyes and OP plane. Its just dumb that the plane combines the best of the P47N and the F4U4
Great review as always, thanks. Pretty mediocre plane if you ask me, though I love how it looks. And surely would play it because of its superb appearance))
It does look rather good and I think you may be underestimating it a little, but it is at the most difficult tier in the game.
Great to hear from you Q! Another informative video.
Thank you! I was sweating trying to get this one out quickly, given the late changes the WoWp team made!

@@TheNobleQ If I had a nickel for every missed opportunity in my battles, I'd be a rich man!
@@AytchZero You and I too, brother!
"The intention is to encourage you to prioritize attacking ground targets, over playing this Corsair as a Fighter." - And I took that personally...
I'm not sure, but I don't think the WoWp team designed this plane intentionally to frustrate you! :D
Good to see you around, big man.
like when you do a recap and recognize contributing players.
I think that's the best reason I've heard for doing the results review. Thank you for your comment, it's helpful.

I didnt know world if warplanes had players still. I thought this was a war thunder video when i saw the thumb nail

Marathon is starting yet but The Noble Q is so fast :))
Not really; I'm lucky enough to have access to a press account and sometimes the WoWp team asks me to test new planes, so I have the opportunity to collect material for these videos. They made me work for it this time though! :)
Not sure what NA pilot you are speaking to, but the biggest guild on NA - OWSS - does not have such adherents regarding marksman
Interesting to know!
I know the pilot that said that marksman I hurts performance and he plays on the EU server, and most of the NA top pilots he's referring to consider marksman I specifically not good without marksman II.

Hi the pilot that you receive with the plane how many points have and the reload time of the rockets??? How many seconds???
The pilot that came with the plane when it was dropped on the press account has one skill point.
The base reload time for the rockets is 120 seconds.
The plane is broken
People underestimate it because its at the hardest tier to play and the MR class is perhaps the hardest one to play.
But come on it has the speed and maneuverability of a corsair with the ground damage of a P47N, its just dumb.

Okay, by that criterion I see your point. It is going to be the strongest tier 7 multirole fighter, I believe.
