Hey I just put a couple of 20mm in your spit at 20kft yesterday. AI I am not - wait... let me think about

(you was cutting wings away on some of the 111 in the flight and choose to spiral down your base just bellow)

From time to time you've some action with real players but for sure you'll hve to CAP until you get really bored

Yes, I remember that!......one of the few occaisions that a Bomber Group had an escort. I did see someone break away going low in the distance but thought "nah ...they never have escorts! Must be an allied disengaging!"- I was wrong! Very low on ammo so - "run and live to fight another day" -my motto! :grin:

So was me dad :)

I'm finding more and more that they do have escorts. It's a great way to play the game. It's a lot easier to spot the bomber formations than a single fighter so they tend to draw players to them, friendly and otherwise.

Plus it's an amazing feeling to bounce an enemy fighter attacking a flight of your bombers and send him packing. Feels just like a film.

Yep I agree, firstly please...just Jamz not as in Sig not ze-jamz (login rubbish) :)

Escorting bombers is a great way to get into some high Alt fights and it's good form immersion too, I was even escorting MajorBorris who was in a 111 too which was mucho fun..bounced a Spit that got on his tail but then took a load of lead from his wingman who done the same to me...good teamwork (75thAg or something like that)

I ended up with 33-1 of which 4 were human pilots...lol the 1 came from flying through the 3 hangers at the Hurri base when there was hardly anyone on the server last night around 12pm. Had some good fun

Ty1988,Trumps, MjBorris who i winged with and everyone else on the server.

~S~

Also I have to add, I think we all have to agree that the 109e4 is good at what it was orig intended for..taking down bombers, or at least the other variant DBAa engine was.

The Reds have a bit of a torrid time taking down bombers though IMO, I'm not to bad accuracy wise but still have a mission taking down bombers in a Spitty, bit easier I find in a Hurri maybe cuz of gun arrangment though some people are good with both.

So I can understand Red mostly not flying high ATM..mostly all the bombers get intercepted by the Blue side so it's sure way to get some action and more enjoyment whilst flying (immersion)

Winging and comms adds to that, so if your able to get that Mic setup! :)

No prob with that m8. I do the same. Sometime even faster :oops:

@ Bliss or any other map makers for ATAG

Again il ask the question as it seems to get lost or ignored :rolleyes:

There is a script that is sorting out this whole ESC and create another AC situation being wrote..can it be implemented into what you guys are doing?


# I.e bailout still records a Death (plane)
# ESC and creating another AC during flight records a death

And killer and killed names are shown on both counts

Im sure with friendly permission you could use it...I read that If you ESC and create another AC midflight (mostly when youve just been spanked) spawns another aircraft for you with its tail missing or fuel pump nonoperational for a certain time period

Its triggered after a certain time so hill starts would affect it..and tbh the amount of times people bail cuz they've been bounced or have taken hits is silly..nearly eveyone you shoot down is AI in this game, on top of that you have to put up wiht the AC warping like hell while it turns into AI..

Just stupid imo, Ive even seen pilots bail out without taking hits cuz they know they are in trouble..

Dont get me wrong ive give up on nursing a badly shot up AC home cuz I know I can esc and create another, I like the scoring in IL2 where you have to nurse your AC home unless you want a death recorded against you..if you bail then it depends on where you bailed as to whether you survive or not

I get a lot of pleasure nursing my badly damaged aircraft home which is just as well given the number of times I have been shot up :lol:

They really need a refly button on this game
