You know at this point I feel like saying "awwwwww" but I won't.

I'm not an Ace player. I can point you towards some ace players but they are not me. I'm not bad and I have experience which does count but I would only consider myself well rounded and with some degree of experience. I work full time (sometimes more than full time), own a house, and keep a very busy social schedule. Time for IL-2 is pretty limited these days

If you are getting shot down by veteran piloted aircraft in ever battle then its because of one thing: You. That's not to say that you can't improve and do better. Because you can and you will if you practice a bit. Sure it takes time and its a great hobby when you get downtime.

As far as the AI is concerned... the AI veterancy levels are great for both players and for mission builders. When I build campaigns my philosophy is this: Rookie and Normal are your typical pilots with minimal or average amounts of combat experience and typical of your average player. Veteran is what it says... an experienced combat veteran. Ace AI is a gifted pilot... the equivalent of Galland, Kozhedub, Gabreski, Beurling, etc.

The AI is not perfect and to some degree it does cheat because its AI and not a human player. But not in the way that you've stated and more importantly its not impossible to play against.

If you are an average pilot then you should set your QMB up with rookie and normal AI pilots. A veteran pilot should be a challenge if you're still getting started and learning the ropes. And its good that there are challenges because its good to raise the bar and be challenged. Only then can you improve.

If you find the AI pilots to be an issue then I encourage you to spend some time online. You'll see performances that exceed anything that the AI can do.

Also... since you said we should ante up and show you some tracks of how we were doing it. Lets see yours. We'll either see the AI cheating or we might be able to help you improve your technique... if that's what you're interested in.
