Single missions more difficult than campaign?

[beaker126]

Yeah, some of 'em are alot harder. Wait'll you do the one where you've gotta make it back to your base in a Hurricane. You gotta dance in and outta the cloud deck and dodge 109's that come at you in groups of four, and I swear they turned up the damage you plane takes. They were like little specks on the screen and brrrrrrp, one little burst there goes the wing. I'm not kiddin' it's like they had sniper rifles for MGs. And that was one ARCADE for cryin' out loud!

I did this one on Simulator and I found it really easy, the 109 never found me and I came back to my squadron without any dammage... May be it was just luck

Agreed, I had no problem either

Yeah, they're harder, but they have bigger rewards.

2 planes per campaign?

[mattd27]

Well if it's one of your favorite planes then I guess it's worth it.

Multiplayer really gets you the best unlocks, but actually finding a game is harder than any of the single missions.

I dunno, they just seem to be "pick me ups" in a way? I think Single Mission and Campaign give you the best planes, though I'm still working at getting my Il-4!!! in multiplayer.

[mattd27]

well I guess it's down to your opinion. Personally I think single player gets the base planes, but to max out, you need to play MP, I mean getting the more advanced versions of planes, and getting custom weapons.

Right now I'm working through the Korsun Pocket single missions to get the po-2 and it's giving me a bit of trouble!

Maybe I just had bad luck is all. I finally figured out sort of a pattern where the enemies were and just planned my flight path accordingly.
