[QUOTE=69105;37175998]haha i am so bad at il-2 but i rule at flying in this game. i love the 109 so much. i think it's probably because most of the players are awful at flying because they're mostly brand new[/QUOTE]
You're lucky. I want to be Allied, and the only planes available to me are the French P-63, or the Hawker Hurricane.
Remembering IL-2 myself, I still remember hating those planes with a passion.
Am i the only one not getting this game? It doesn't help my frame-rate somehow sucks dick (so its hard to play) but there is like no one on, and anyone who is on, has this great idea of 'lets just stand here and shoot AA cannons'

most people are in the combat zones. look for the towns

Yeah, I try spawning on brigades and stuff, but I had no idea I could spawn in the towns.
Guess I gotta give this game quite a few hours to soak in, ARMA is piss easy compared to this :v:

I'm descent at il-2 but the first time I tried flying a plane in here I couldn't take off and instead steered right into what I think was someone using an AA gun....maybe I should just stick to being an awesome rifleman.
just found out this went F2P. anyone have any details on how the infantry combat plays out?
also, is H&G mmo-esque like WWII Online?
There is AI in this game, mostly they're manning AA guns, so it probably isn't a no-life waiting 10 hours to occasionally shoot down a plane.
Apparently, F2P users can only play as rifle and SMG infantry, cannot spawn trucks, and only certain aircraft and vehicles.
This F2P seems to have brought a lot of new players. Just participated in a 20-man paradrop onto a city where roughly 40 allies were fighting for control. If we assume the same amount of of axis soldiers plus our paradrop then we're at around 100.
Was quite intense.

Anytime I get any air action in the Hurricane, it's normally me being out-turned and gunned down.
Anybody interested in forming up in the next 30 minutes? Got some new players, but need more people.
I guess I'd be down to do that
We've got a mumble up at tofusaur.us (default port), forming up atm

He might be getting two plane'd by JG51 or something.
The result of our foray into WW2 online

Last night was a good night, battle of Eugen(cant remember if it was that) was massive. Easily over 200 players from both sides combined in one single city, just like in the good old days. Tanks, infantry, planes...you name it, all partipicating in one continuous clusterfuck of a battle in a typical urban warfare where lines are meaningless and enemy is everywhere.
Loved it
I thought it was bastogne
[QUOTE=scout1;37210849]I thought it was bastogne[/QUOTE]
I think there were atleast 3 different cities in a row being razed to the ground from the sheer amount of fighting.
Poor, poor little frenchie about to have the integrity of his anal virginity obliterated.

he still should be fine. hurricane has one of the tightest turn rate. the d.520 has the best turn rate of all the fighters in the game. though i've never flown the e1 so that one might get it tighter
Oh yeah, this from last night when I tagged around this group and their hanomag, cappin' CP's and busting frenchie asses.
Thought that they'd appreciate more firepower to guard the doors.

I played a bit last night. We were attacking a small outpost. I spawned, ran all the way through the forest, bullets wizzing past. Make it to the tall grass area and lay low. Crawl all the way through, as soon as i exit i spot a German to my left, point and shoot, and miss. realize my crosshairs are set at 300m when he's less than 50 away. Adjust and fire again, and he goes down. I am promptly killed 5 seconds later.
Still satisfying, my first kill on a new account

Tonight's session went well. It's still going on as of right now, actually!
Do the lines ever make any definitive movements? I've never seen them really shift.
You've gotta have a massive push in order to take control of cities en'mass.
