F-41 Viper
Real name: F-18 Superhornet
A lower mid-level weapons class plane. Not much to get excited about here. One reader on this blog has the notion that this is a green eagle killer and has some sort of special powers against the green turtle. I don't see any evidence to support this, but who knows ;-)

S-03 Saber
This plane is equal to the Hawken on weapons stats plus has lock range of +5%, however Hawken has much greater agility. If you think that lock range is more important than agility (which I don't personally), then get the Saber.

Are you sure they have the same agility?
ReplyDeleteSaber is reskinned Maurauder although skin looks stupid.
DeleteI want the Sabre because it doesnt have that stuped Red Widow paint job.
ReplyDeleteRed widow looks a lot more badass
DeleteI agree with DelOngest. The red widow looks terrible. I like the plane model of it though, just not it's paint job.
DeleteThe red widow paint job actually does look kind of cool! (Plz no bad reply's only nine!)
DeleteHow do you know that it is dicontinued not just become limited edition?
ReplyDeleteI love my saber :) been using it for like a year. didnt know it was discontinued lol. i was wondering why no one else had one. anyways its like the best plane. add me -fakethor
ReplyDeleteBecause you were one of the first people to be in the game!
Deletewhat did the viper cost?
ReplyDeleteMost likely the currency system used in metalstorm I believe, so either credits or coins :D
DeleteOBVIOUSLY! He means HOW MUCH NOT WHAT CURRENCY.
DeleteClearly I was being sarcastic :P but yeah I heard viper has a strong possibility of coming back.
DeleteViper is back on version 4.2.1 and it costs 30 coins.
DeleteSkyraza.
Viper is badass awesome and cost 30 coins it is actually pretty godd w/o upgrades
Deletei realy hope they return all discontinued planes. can you arrange that Z2 will get the green eagle, saber, viper and all other planes (if there are more). if you can ill be realy grateful and probably a lot of other players. if you can do this! i am gonna say thanks allready :)

ReplyDeletethe viper costs 6k in credits, i have it but not so great. (it's only halfway upgraded but still the Wraith is better w/ 1/2 upgrades as well)
It is, by the way, a really sweet lookin' plane though.
DeletePardon me, it costs 6.5k
DeleteThe viper isnot bad but has poor energy
DeleteNew info, Viper and Saber are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Viper is at 30 coins :( (still bought it for collection purposes) and the saber at 205 coins. Both are featured and probably won't stay long. Now I'm wondering if I should get the saber.
ReplyDeleteNow that the Saber and Viper have been re-released, there are no more discontinued planes.
DeleteGreen eagle
DeleteSpectre (very good)
DeleteI am considering purchasing it as my first Weapon class plane. I'm a fairly new pilot that only has a Tempest ATM, but I'm aiming to try the Annihilater and either the Wraith or Viper.
ReplyDeleteCan someone please recommend a good plane for a new beginner to use for grinding exp and credits and for campaign and survival mode? I don't think I can ever be able to dogfight another human pilot.
Many thanks :D
Also, can I add some pilots so I can have a easier time in campaign mode? Tyvm.
So... I just bought the Annihilater, ran it in the first mission and OMG... the PLANE is AWESOME! Much more than the Tempest. I just realized that speed and agility is all you need to stay alive. I think I will just stay in this plane for now and continue to upgrade it. However, I'm still considering purchasing the Viper. 8 more coins to go...
DeleteIf you upgrade the viper than you won't need the Hawken or Sentinel.
DeleteGET THE BOBCAT OR RAIDER. if you like the tempest and annilator they will blow you away.
DeleteGood news for those of you who were deciding if you were going to buy the saber(not many) it is now at a deducted price! 160 coins!!!! I know fakethor and others will be pissed.
ReplyDeleteokay, for some strange reason the saber seems to have a 4 percent armor regen when i upgraded it even though it's a weapon class. lucky me.
ReplyDeleteI have both of them, both from the re-release, the viper, for it's stats amazed me, so I saved for the saber, it didn't so much, get it if you are in need of a weapons class, but my advice is, stick with the paladin, I have it and it's formidable
ReplyDeleteSeconded for the Paladin. My opinion ain't worth much - I am only in the high 4Ks in skill level; however my learning curve has been exponential since getting the Pal. My win-rate has improved too.
ReplyDeleteWhat? My viper is still a featured plane, in a red box, and it's July, I've had it for 2 months, and my saber is now blue?
ReplyDeleteZ2 please fix this! :)
Viper pilots, watch and enjoy:

very good plane i like it its very agile for a weapon plane iv got it for free !
ReplyDeleteI have not seen any vipers other than mine in vs or survival co op
ReplyDeleteI fly it, and if I ever come to verse you, man, you r toast.
Deleteyeah bicth
DeleteI fly this plane and it helped me beat attack on port crescent, not bad for a lower level weapons c. Then, again, I used Bisnovats and Zeus to help me complete this. Duh...
ReplyDeleteThe Viper is a damn good plane for campaign. I finished mission 5 with this thing using stock missiles and cannons :D
ReplyDeleteThe Viper was always amongst my favorite and most admired aircraft. I have killed a Hurricane(fastest n most accurate gunslinger), and a sentinel(most lethal plane) with viper.I lost against defense eagle 4-3. But at least I koed him three times :).
ReplyDeleteI finished all campaign with no ressurections with viper with pheonixes and Valkyrie.
I also upgraded this sucker before I upgraded my defense eagle.
I have this plane and it turns faster than the eagle x.
ReplyDeleteWhich plane? There are two listed.
DeleteIs the Saber really a F- 35 Lighting II? If so, I would like to buy one.
ReplyDeleteBRING BACK THE SABRE (sob sob sob) :(
ReplyDeleteviper has 100% more DMG on ge green eagle or d112 eagle some guy says i fought vipers and always lose 3-0 z2 had messed up the coding HA
ReplyDeleteThe viper has a hidden 15% damage against the green eagle. The green eagle worst enemy is the viper. Planing to get it.
