Aye, to Sleeptrgt, I've done what he has done except it involves junkers and HE-111 in Dover. But theres that problem, there will be 40 or 50 or more planes in multiplayer, you'll have to know what each plane silliouhette looks like and know what planes are on your team, and hope the enemies don't have similar planes!

That just popped in my head, I know that in the Team games the teams are split up between Axis and Allies, I hope they don't let you bring a Mustang over to the Axis team!

Well if the Axis planes don´t have any cockpit view yet, if i would host a server on sim mode, i would not allow Axis planes, because they would have a advantage with the free look feature.

Makes me wonder also how this is supposed to work in Multiplayer.
Will i be able to pick which ever plane i want to fly, or do i have to choose the plane types available for each side?

Well from what I can tell from what I've read, you get to customise your plane and how it looks and what guns it uses, but it doesn't say if you choose one plane before playing or you do all that before the match starts.

Good point. It will be a nightmare to try and sort out who's friendly. And trying to identify by markings alone would be a bit lame. I'd rather not waste time pouncing on a P-51 only to see it's on my side.

Mind you, I've occasionally found myself on the six of a friendly, in single player! :oops:
If you fly with me, best keep me in front... actually... then I might think you're hostile! :rolleyes:

I can deal with whatever for now. As long as the cockpits turn up eventually, online Sim will be safe.

If I'm on your team and there's a plane flat spinning constantly...its me ;-)

Hey Musttang, the servers are not actually down its just at that particular moment there are no pre-game lobbies open at that time. I find it a lot easier to find games on Player matches instead of Ranked. Try going on Player match and then custom game and search there. There is also more of a chance of you getting into a game on DogFight and Team Dogfight.

Hope that was useful ^^!
