First off great game and the level of ground detail and the planes. Second if you do decide to do a update then you should think of the following: Correct the planes turning, climb and decent rates to the correct way that they were in the war, then for every german plane you need to put the swastika on the back not a diamond, then you need to put the correct weapon sounds like machine guns sound like machine guns and cannons like cannons, the biggest is correcting the FW-190 D-9 cause its missing two cannons and two machine guns which makes it have 5 cannons and 2 machine guns and if you think that it will be a balance problem then explain that to the men who fought in the war and i can a sure you they will laugh at you about balance, add cockpits for all of the planes, ability to change the controls to the users preferances, guns need to be able to damage everything, add more planes, bomber missions, have the ability to change your load out cause the germans added cannons under the wings of most of there planes, have a ranking system instead of do a certian amount of stuff to unlock a plane or load out that way it is easier to know how close you are to unlocking something, and finally different paint schemes and custom user schemes

The Dora 9 never had 5 cannons...where on earth did you get that from? It had two 20mm MG151 cannon in the wingroots and two 13mm MG131 machine guns in the top of the nose... If you want to see some real errors with the aircraft in the game, look at my previous posts. The Germans didn't add cannon under the wings of "most" of their planes at all...certain variants, yes...such as the Bf-109G-6....certainly NOT most. And these were marks...there were field mods, but these were the exception rather than the rule.

When selecting a game mode (ie dogfight, team battle etc) when going online, could there be an option for 'All'. At the moment when there are so few games visible, it's a bit of a pain flicking through all the options trying to find a game, would be nice if you could just have an option to see them all and pick from there.

+1, bold, underline, with bells on . Atm, I have to scan through all four custom match options, normally to find one or two.

More of a thank you to the Devs!

I played IL2 years ago, perhaps 5 years ago on my old PC and loved it. Alas, time moved on, my PC got too old and I stopped playing games on it. I did however buy a 40" TV and a PS3 to show it off.

There was rumour of IL2 being developed for Consoles, and I hoped and prayed and waited and occasionally glanced at release schedules. It was silent. Then, all of a sudden I noticed it for sale in my local supermarket!

Suffice to say, I bought IL2 - Birds Of Prey and I couldn't be happier. Not only have you brought this game to a format I can enjoy straight away (no forking out £100 for a new gfx card or joystick this time) you've not shied away from making it a complete sim as well as a "spray and pray" arcade experience that is just so much fun. I really appreciate what you have done as a small company to bring such a wonderful title to the world stage.

I've been raving about it to my friends, I've left a positive review on Metacritic and I wish you every sucess after having the guts to release a proper, adult, thoughtful and well realised game on console. May your efforts be rewarded!

(also, great news on the "fixing tearing" and "L2 to look around" fixes for PS3 - The click on the right stick was annoying me somewhat!)
