Did you fly relaxed realism or full realism? European Theatre or Pacific?

I used to play relaxed in Europe mainly.

And I'd like it if BoP had everyone start with taking off from their airfield. Airfields should have flak turrets for defense - and multiple airfields to take off from.

Granted - it might not suit the console players that like the quick action of enter the game and start shooting - but I would definitely prefer it myself.

Have you played IL2 on PC? No stress on any computer, unless it's from the '90's, and has the features you want .

IL-2 1946?

I have it. Haven't tried it yet.

Only problem is I have to go out and buy a new flight stick and rudder pedals that are USB.



The other thing is - where my computer is and where my 42 inch HDTV is - it won't be an easy setup to play. And I'd rather the 42 inch HDTV than the 20inch flatpanel.

20" is working just fine for me . But there's solutions for your problem.

There are always solutions - I just don't feel the urge to solve the problems just yet.

I'll give the game a try on my 20 inch with the shitty 360 flight stick.

Maybe I'll get a gameport to USB adapter so I can just use my CH stuff.

I used to play RR on Europe mostly. I agree with SL83, I wish it was an option to make respawns on the ground. Sometimes the spawns are annoying, especially when playing 1 on 1. After earning a kill a lot of times the enemy will spawn 1000ft above and directly behind me and I have a huge disadvantage immediately, sometimes I won't even have time to turn around and face them before they're firing a burst into me. A lot of the strategy of gaining altitude for bombing/BnZ tactics doesn't work with the instant action spawn setting.
