Mmm, that's a great idea! It would make blowing up trucks so much more relevant accept the usual "IL2 blow up 20 trucks goal" you would actually stop the progress of the tanks that actually capture the territory you defend!

My dreams of the ultimate war simulator are going amok now

Great sounds in the vid

Glad they are working on the FM, but if the performance data will be fixed, is not clear from the post.

Regarding ground combat in IL2, I think without infantery it is without merit. But to each his own.

so are we looking at a new WWII battlefield online?
This would really be awesome can't wait!

I'm hoping the new graphics update could address that situation.

please please fix the boost on the spit and hurricane

[MIRGERVIN]

i mean wy fix the boost cutout switch and not the boost its pointles? surely the boosts should have been one of the first things fixed for the spit and hurricane and still they have no boost 1 year on nearly. this combat sim is nothing short of amazing , you guys have done such a great job on this sim i cant get enough of it , its just this lack of boost for the allies planes really spoils it, its so frustrating.

Can anyone decipher this into layman terms? Is this referring to modeling of slips?
