I really think this add-on is one of the best things to happen in CloD,but is it just me:I was flying a Hurricane in one of the first missions ( the third I think) all I had to do was shoot down a solitary Heinkel 111, I did find it ( no automatic pilot vectoring either- you have to obey the vectoring commands,which is ok...) and proceeded to pump it full of 303 rounds.The Verdamnt thing refused to go down & flew sedately back to France.Not only did I not get credit for the kill or a damaged,but the whole campaign got scuppered( deleted) & I am now starting over.In another example :I was flying one of Wick's 109's ,my job was to shoot down 2 Hurricanes & 1 Spitfire during the alloted time.Well, I shot down two Spitfires & one Hurricane-quite good I thought for the kind of FPS I have in combat,BUT the program didn't agree with me & now I must repeat the mission until I get thescores right.To me both scenarios are most unrealistic-after all lots of Heikels made it home after being peppered by RAF fighters,and surely the 109 pilot ( von Dietz) would have been honored for his work dispatching 3 RAF Fliegers? I don't mind Dead is Dead at all,it forces you not to take too many risks , but I wish I could simply turn off the missions goals,it would make these missions more real not less.
