Il-2 Sturmovik - Games - Facepunch Forum

[QUOTE=The Best;13317098]Is it still worth it to get this game without a joystick?[/QUOTE] Yeah, but it will be quite hard with just mouse + keyboard.

I'm going to restart.

What vent channel are we supposed to be in; there's a lot.

Are you gonna put the server back up?

Uh, I accidentally installed AAA before the patch. Can I still patch it up then reinstall AAA?

[QUOTE=lolburst;13309248]Beaufighter is not a noob plane. Just like all two-engined fighters, they all suck at turning in dives. Only La-7 and all biplanes are noob planes for their superior turning, Hurricane does not count as it has still a weakness, which is pitching too high. The engine stops working.[/QUOTE] How are biplanes noob planes? You'd get toasted in a full setting server if you're flying against monoplanes unless you really know what you're doing. Seriously, almost every plane in the game is "noobish" in some area. Let's see... 190 has super cannons 109 also has super cannons (hardly anyone flies without a Mk108 anymore) Zero turns too well P-47 is invincible in dives and zoom climbs La-7s/la-5s perform good almost everywhere P-51's are king at high altitude Ki-84c has gigantic cannons like the 190. J2M's have a good climb rate and speed It's the pilot, not the plane. [QUOTE=Failure;13309330] Owning Alpha 747's Ki 84 lc - Overpowered Japenese plane.

Server is down until further notice, sorry guys, my computer is being a bitch.

[QUOTE=RepoOne;13315193]I just bought it, and I'm now waiting for it to finish installing. If anyone wants to play with me, add me on X-Fire; my username is RepoOne. I have one of these: [IMG]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a67/RepoOne/100_1007Medium.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Lol, I have the same.

[QUOTE=Fkpuz Version 1;13317244]What vent channel are we supposed to be in; there's a lot.[/QUOTE]I'm just reposting it so that lazy people don't have to sift through the pages.

[QUOTE=Sami-ph34rz;13207351]Oh and it's not that realistic.[/QUOTE] Realism in my video game?

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7RKltkHPjY[/media] Just made a video of myself playing some IL-2.

I received my Pell Grant check today, I'll probably go out and buy this at Best Buy or something.

Is there anything better or more reliable than the joystick provided in the first post? If all else fails I'll just get that one instead, I guess.

Look I know this is page 17 by now but I still don't understand why you guys are not using Hyperlobby. You can host custom servers on Hyperlobby and you can password restrict them if you so desire.

I don't use hyperlobby, because I am playing only on Tic's server or on official AAA server. So I just go into game, type IP and I am done. I miss times of good old Ubi server browser :D [img]http://img.tomshardware.com/cn/newsimages/2001/0000133/cyborg3d.jpg[/img] I have this :D

What's so bad about hyperlobby?

[QUOTE=Sethorion;13323486]What's so bad about hyperlobby?[/QUOTE] hundreds of players, dozens of servers with varying degrees of realism running dogfighting, mission based dogfighting, co-op, air wars, lots of experienced and expert players wait, what's BAD? I don't know.. it takes a few seconds to load up? Sometimes the main chat window has people typing random numbers in it?

Excuse my noobness but how come you can fly NPC planes?

[QUOTE=angelangel;13324180]Excuse my noobness but how come you can fly NPC planes?[/QUOTE] Yeah, I was wondering this too. It's [B][url=http://allaircraftarcade.com/forum/]AAA[/url][/B]mazing!

So, TicTac, are you starting the server today?

Can anyone recommend any cool looking skins for good aircraft? (Me-109, Zeros, etc)? I guess custom skins work online, which is pretty awesome and I'd love to shoot down people in a kickass plane.

TicTac, you have to download the dedicated server files then keep the server on all the time.

I noticed that FAB-5000's look better with the smoke mod. [IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/11l0bb8.png[/IMG]

Again, I ask, is there anything better or more reliable for the same price or cheaper than the joystick provided in the first post?

Ah cool, just made my game widescreen. Not I can see more stuff and shit isn't stretched anymore.

[QUOTE=The Best;13324979]Again, I ask, is there anything better or more reliable for the same price or cheaper than the joystick provided in the first post?[/QUOTE] Just get a Saitek Evo if you don't want to fork out alot of cash. Their reliable and you can switch the thing around if you're left handed.
