yes ive noticed that.

i was on sim mode on that level and after messing about for almost 40 minutes all the friendlies dissapeard (shot down) and i had about 3 109's chasing me around so i decided to land my bird in a field and after about 10 minutes a 109 just chrashed about 200 meters ahead of me.

Whether its something to do with fuel or they just crashed in an attept at shooting me, i dont know

when im chasing them, they often go up, then dive down, losing their control in the dive and spin/crash.

Also had a wave of like 6 or 8 planes coming at me, passed me. i turned around and atleast 3 of them crashed...

For them dissapearing sometimes they just go out of your range, cant see them on the map anymore.

Yes, I know what you guys mean. I was playing the first mission of the campaign and I could not concentrate because I was also busy with something else, I did shoot down a couple of bombers, though. Then I heard someone scream that the enemy bombers were coming through and that they're going to bomb the harbour if we don't do anything fast. I hurried to the harbour only to find out a crowd of bailed out pilots on chutes (??) and hardly any bombers. :confused:

I was like... where did they go? Were they shot down by AAA guns, or wingmen? I mean, is there any way to actually FAIL the mission? I do hope there is because I don't want the game to play itself, you know.


As for being shot down, I was at least once. The canopy was all like swiss cheese and the controlls no longer worked. I wanted to find an airstrip to land but went into an unrecoverable spin close to the ground. Splash.

I Hope to star some of you guys in it since I plan on showing the incredibly epic things you can do and see in IL2.

Wonderful. I get to see myself as a burning heap of metal plunging towards earth from another perspective. LOL.

I've been shot down a couple of times by the henkels themselves, not actually by any fighters... :eek:

As for the fighters, they usually chase me for a while and fire some pot shots in my general direction. They then try to escape me, often only to spin out of control and crash.

hmm this dont sound good i also dont want the game to do it for me
is this a bug? i hope so

Ju-87 07-31-2009 02:46 PM

A bug? Probably not.

I think the AI is pretty good actually, it's just not aggressive enough. Maybe it has something to do with the missions themselves. A level with a lot of fighters would probably be harder, I think.

SleepTrgt 07-31-2009 03:07 PM

hmm i just, flying around alone, my wingmens are gone in Tiger hunt, Finally spot an enemy, he just randomly crashes into the ground again. Its like they have a harder time controling their planes than we do!
