[QUOTE=O'Neil;39857917]Not always, I use my A-20 to hunt down bombers while I'm waiting for my bombs to reload. Might as well do some easy money earning while your waiting to bust more bunkers.[/QUOTE]
But the A-20 Havoc IS an attacker :X

[QUOTE=Shoopiwoop;39857929]i'm new to the game.
which airplane should i aim for? i honestly have no idea.[/QUOTE]
Very much depends your play-style.
Do you like diving in on targets, strafing them without know what hit them? Or do you like jumping into the middle of a dogfight and pursuing whoever you see, even as they try to evade you?
[QUOTE=mscmn;39855618]It's a massive joke
Speaking of low rank German stuff, I finally got my first 109 and I'm glad that I'm not stuck in these jokes for airplanes when I want to play as Germany.[/QUOTE]
Oh man that sucks, I went up the G50 line before the thread switchover because it looked cool, then when this thread was made I saw the thread title and thought my decision was great

If you can breathe without having to consciously do it you can fly russian planes
so after i've crashed/been shot down three times. i have to wait :( ?
Ugh, I started using bombers because it was pretty fun but they get you absolutely nowhere in XP and creds.
Someone who doesn't help the team obj at all and just goes for air kills all game will get like 4x the reward

Repair cost for the P-47 is ridiculous. I've heard the US line of planes have it the worst when it comes to repair costs.
[QUOTE=Binge le mag;39858856]Repair cost for the P-47 is ridiculous. I've heard the US line of planes have it the worst when it comes to repair costs.[/QUOTE]
Somehow it says the average repair cost is 9k but its actually around 25k which is something i've noticed on all US planes.
Its literally not possibly to make a profit in FRB while flying US.

Once you get the Corsair F4Ud and F4Ua and use there combat flaps in a dogfight, you'll have a great tough fighter-bomber and is cheap to repair. Don't forget about that speed as well.

Repair costs and rewards/XP are scaled in HB and FRB. In HB reward rates are like 5x arcade and repair costs are 3x the listed average repair cost. I think the repair costs in FRB are like 5x the average repair cost but I'm not sure.

I've already used them, currently loving the 1c, but the price for that is also very high.

Its probably 3x for frb since the max repair cost for my bf-109f-4 is around 6k in frb while listed is 2k.

[QUOTE=Crumpet;39855167]Yeah, whats the point in that Tu2 or whatever the russian tier 9 is if it can only drop 2 250kgs at a time?
Might as well use one of the american planes
ALSO, is the G50 really OP or is that some kind of joke[/QUOTE]
One of the largest things they got wrong with this game is the loadouts, a large majority of the planes can carry only a fraction of the types and amounts they really had, when they could simply take their time to create a pylon system or just add the actual ones they could use.

ive never seen the other styles look good on any plane.
Funny thing I made a skin in il-2 1946 for the p-39 that looks just like this except a long time ago
Shark paint is kind of.. uninspiring, isn't it?
I paint the entirety of my wings for my fighters. Huricanes with wings of yellow or white and red. Gladiator of blue. Bombers of crimson...
I pretty much make myself bright and shiny to shoot at.
Is anybody else's 'assault plane' tutorial broken? I go to dive bomb a truck but my Russian bombs turn into air apparently and I fail over and over again.

I'm not sure, but many of the missions are broken at the moment, or literally non-existent. US have a mission which can't be finished, and two which literally don't show up, but you're told they are available. Disappointing.
You have to use rockets or cannons iirc.
Does anybody else notice that bullets leave specific decals on your craft in single player?

shame it doesnt show up in multiplayer
I've lost money almost every match today even though I've had the most ground kills multiple times. Why does Gaijin hate ground attackers?

economy breaks itself when you play Tier 10+ planes.
The game won't let me use cannons or rockets, I really would like those 70 eagles.
Also, I bought a bunch of XP with my others eagles and leveled to 3 for the ruskis so I can make money to support my (cocaine) American addiction. So I try out the Russ starter plane and first match I've played in over 5 months~ and I kill 6, solo a spitfire, and land at the airfield once for light repairs. I feel so... dirty. D:
Having a Stuka G with 37 BK cannons would be more fun if it weren't for every single Yak in a game targeting me
Anyone here play full real battles?
None of my friends are anywhere near cut out for that.

Doesnt count if your using a russian plane.
[QUOTE=oakman26;39861878]wow, i was on 5 air kills in a IL-2 and some asshole rams me[/QUOTE]
I know that feel, was cruising around in the first spitfire racking up kills and all of a sudden some asshole sideswipes me and takes my wing off and I go spinning into an enemy plane that finishes me off before I hit the ground.
