Jagr, I know about the Allied bombing things etc. The Hurricane and Spitfire were armed with rifle caliber as well. At that time it was believed that they would be enough and you have to remember that He111 or Ju88 were developed against fighters of that time their plans were introduced..in 1930's with Gladiators etc. The rapid development of more modern planes caused them to be obsolete in speed/defense department when Spitfire/Hurricane came out.
But you could not park behind one for ages and not expect to stay without being hit. In CoD you can, kind of gone from IL-2's extreme of sniper gunners to CoD's blind idiots behind the guns. In EAW you could engage bomber formations with proper tactics and survive, but if parked behind you were dead or damaged. In B17 II also applied, used head-on attacks to kill B17's with minimal damage on me.
CoD has the potential and is being patched, hopefully a lot before US release, so the future looks not so bad. But until then I am off to other games like World Of Tanks etc. as they simply just run fine and are fun. CoD will be when ready.
