@Oberon

You mustn't pull too hard on take off with the Korea jets. Otherwise their tail will hit the ground and you go kabooom. Apart from that you can't do much wrong in those (except the F84).

Task Force
01-23-10, 02:56 PM
Yea, lol. was fun...

but we need to turn the external mod off... made the game very easy... well, for the side with good ground attack planes... lol

Oberon
01-23-10, 02:58 PM
That's the craziest thing, I didn't pull back at all with the MiG-17, it just flipped up of his own accord :06: Caught me by surprise and before I could correct it I was cartwheeling down the runway :doh:
The F-84 was my bad though, pulled up too hard and forgot the length of the craft. So used to tail-draggers over tricycles :damn:

Oberon
01-23-10, 03:03 PM
Yea, lol. was fun...

but we need to turn the external mod off... made the game very easy... well, for the side with good ground attack planes... lol

That would be why you did more damage to our base than we did to yours...well...right up until the point Hunter nuked it :03: Besides, I had externals off the whole mission, probably because I never actually managed to land until right at the end. A lovely three point landing it was, and then I went to taxi over to Hunter and flipped the bloody thing on its roof again. :damn:
I also managed to powerslide a Spitfire :doh: Took a corner too fast, she went over on her starboard wing, spun slightly to the left and then righted herself :doh:
Truely indestructible these Spits, particularly since you hit me about three or four times with the He-162 according to the playback. Then you BBQ'd yourself into oblivion.

Your outing with the 262 was memorable too, I saw you come out and prepared to dive on you after you'd taken off and before you could climb to danger altitude. Then I just saw a fireball on the taxi-way and 'Task Force bailed out'. :har:

Task Force

Don't:damn: mention :damn: that :damn: again!:damn:

I was so frustrated that this 1000kg bomb did zero damage to the parked planes. It was a SB1000 (I guess SB stands for Splitterbombe which means cluster bomb). Since when are planes immune to cluster bomb attacks?:damn:
The entire fore field was full of craters and all camo nets had been destroyed but all the planes were still there good as new.:damn:
Even those that were 2 metres away from the impact point of the bomb.:damn::damn::damn:
Are they friggin tanks?

Oberon
01-23-10, 05:52 PM
Interesting...on my screen the whole lot went up. Bombers and all. There wasn't an explosion though, which was odd, just a small lag spike and then all the planes and hanger-things went damaged and black. :hmmm:

01-24-10, 12:02 PM
Seems the DF night was a succes, so why dont we have a team versus team dogfight on fridays?

unfortunate the scripts don't work, unless you program a dedicated server file to recognize victory conditions...and I haven't got a clue how that all works.

so instead, the goal is to accumulate as much points you can per team in a time limit or something, Bases/fleets/etc provide nice point farms.

but instead of having all the aircraft to pick, I divide them in groups for example - all the Bi-planes / All the aircraft till 1939 / All Carier aircraft and so on and on.

The mission will look different too, one has 2 aircraft bases, the other has 2 fleets, the other has 2 harbours or a fortified city/town.

I will pick small/online maps so we don't get lost.

there's one strict rule....when we dogfight the External death camera mod is turned off, to make it a fair fight and we'll have to decide either to defend or go offensive or divide roles in a team.
when we discover you have it turned on, you and your team are..disqualified and ofcourse the offender banned for the next Dogfight Friday :|\\

how does it sound?
Monday - Wednesday : Co-Op Campaign
Friday - Team vs Team Dogfight

I'm not much of a dog fight fan. We usually aren't more than 4 people on Fridays and a two versus two isn't much fun in my opinion.

I'm easy either way, but I quite enjoyed the last dogfight and it's better than nothing while we try and fix the Soviet Onion.

I think some of the most fun I had was traumatising poor Schroeder :haha: Sitting on his tail in my little Russkie biplane firing rockets at him. He warned me about his rear gunner and I was trying to line up a shot to kill the rear gunner when Raptor showed up so I rammed him instead. :rock:

Flying an Italian aircraft while not in reverse gives you autmoatic negative points, apparently. :O:

:har:

I thought you were both in the Italian aircraft, hence my surprise when after I shot you down Hunter was still alive. I thought you were being his tailgunner or something because your tailgunner wasn't actually doing much against me...although against a F-86 it seems the only valid response is that damn 162 and a head-on pass...like I said, I so nearly had you, you were about two mm away from coming into my gunsights when I made it into yours. :damn:

Yeah, that AAA was scary, it stopped firing during the actual nuclear explosion (which sadly didn't render at my altitude but I saw all the buildings explode) but started up again a minute or so after. Those gunners are more resilient than we give them credit for...even if they can't really cope with attacks by jet aircraft as Schultzs tower found out. :yeah:

I was coming in so low that I was dodging trees and at one point misjudged a hill and bounced my undercarriage off it :har: It would have been quite a good attack run, two bombs and a string of flares, unfortunately a direct flak hit disintegrated the poor little Stringbag :damn:

I think the funniest thing about the Franco carrier was the fact that it never made it to the ground, it spun slowly downwards on a vertical axis whilst spewing failed paratroopers and then vanished when you respawned! :har:

Yeah, I was waiting for it to go down as well, but, in clear defiance of the laws of gravity, it never did, so I gave up and hit refly...

Just added another screenshot in the second batch that Imageshack missed the first time around for some reason.
Tell me, in our Sabre vs Salamander duel, how many times did you nearly black out, because you were pulling turns that would have knocked me right out. :hmmm:
Our planes were quite closely matched, certainly in turning radius although I think yours could pull a sharper turn than mine, presumably because it's slightly slower? :hmmm:

I nearly blacked out quite often in the first couple of turns (And I think I may have briefly completely blacked out at one point), at which point I think I stopped turning so sharply so I didn't black out as much.

The 162 should be a better turner, it being slightly slower and much lighter than the Sabre.

Though I think I wasted a bit too much ammo on those failed head-on passes, I think I killed you with my very last shell.

Though I think I wasted a bit too much ammo on those failed head-on passes, I think I killed you with my very last shell.

I did wonder, although in our actual turning battle we were quite well matched to begin with but I could see you inching closer which is why I suddenly switched directions, which I think must of coincided with your black-out because you pulled away and dived before coming up and over to catch me as I came back to the left. I'm not quite sure what you broke on my Sabre but it suddenly went into an irrecoverable spin so I suspect it was something on my tail. :hmmm:

I must admit though, I do like the Sabre, it's a nice jet and unlike the MiG-17 which is also nice, it has air to ground attack ability (in Il2 at least), the F9F2 on the other hand is a bit more finicky, firstly it bunny hops whilst on the ground taxing and then the engine overheats if you push it beyond sixty percent for longer than five seconds and lacks the thrust of a Sabre, which is understandable because she isn't an F-86 :03: For a non-intercepted ground pound I should imagine she'd be quite good...but if something like a MiG-17 come along, I would much rather be in a Sabre than a Panther.

Raptor1
02-03-10, 01:07 PM
Well, the F9F is a carrier aircraft, so of course it would be expected to be inferior to a land-based fighter.

I do believe the FMs for most of the Korea jets is wrong though, there's a fixer package on 242Sqn's forums which among other things includes fixed FMs for the Sabre, MiG-15 and MiG-17 (Though I would suggest not installing it unless the rest of us do as well).

Oh, I think I saw your wing hit by that last shell, that could've caused it.

I'd second that motion of downloading that fix, I'm one for realism, and I've heard good things about the real life Sabres flight dynamics.
And yes, that would explain it, a shell hole in my wing would wreck my flight model a bit. :hmmm:

Actually the He 162 should not be able to turn so tightly. It was limited to a rather low G load (there is a warning panel somewhere in the cockpit, at least in the version that actually flew, not sure about the Star Wars thing). I think this was because of the wooden wing construction and the less than perfect glue.
I really hope that they fix the Korea jets. Right now the Panther doesn't have a proper FM and the performance of F86, MiG 15/17 and even the F80 is far too superior to the F84 (or the F84 is far too inferior, either way). I know that it was inferior to the MiGs and Sabres but I think a speed disadvantage of 200 knots is a bit exaggerated. :hmm2:

200 knots?!?!?

Christ, that's taking the 'Lead Sled' nickname a bit too far isn't it? :hmmm:

Schroeder
02-03-10, 02:45 PM
IIRC it's even a bit more. You can get the F86 easily over 700 knots in level flight (the gauge ends there...) but you will be hard pressed to get the Thunder jet over 450 knots (let alone that it flies like 40 ton truck compared to the Formula one cars that the F86/MiG15/17s are :roll:)

WELL, I got IL-2 reinstalled, and my slightly malfunctioning joystick can be plugged in at any time!!! I suppose I should update it to 4.09?

I have flown a few flight sims in my time.

The real thing had quite a few problems, mostly due to the rushed construction and the glue problem, but I think the He 162C in the game assumes those problems to be resolved.

Still, his evasion into the water under the bridge meant that I claim this as a victory! :yeah:

Umm... I lived... bailed right before you crashed next to me.:O:

but... I took the plane into account when doing that, but not my prop...:shifty:

Made you work tho... :)

Oberon
02-17-10, 07:35 PM
:har: You certainly did, although when I ran out of ammo that was the moment you seemed to become a bit more predictable, or around about the time I stopped falling for your swing to the right and then flip and break left tricks. :ping:

If you hadn't have evaded into the river I was looking to ram you ;)

During the later parts I was comeing up with evasion plans, but the bridge kind of fixed that issue. lol

Well, I figured it a way to test my attack skills which are pretty poor. I was going to either ram you, hit a tree, stall or run out of fuel before too long though. How you survived my initial strafing run baffles me though considering your entire aircraft was blotted out by impact clouds from the ground around it. :doh:

Yeah, I was mildly peeved to see you take off from that. It was kinda like:

MWAHAHAHAHAAAAAA (strafe)

WTF? (TF flies out of cloud of dust)

Crap...now I have to dogfight him at low altitude in a plane that's likely to stall and put me in the ground....

Some might argue it lacks force-feedback, but sometimes you just need that many buttons. DCS comes to mind. :hmmm:

I did um and arr over it for a significant period of time, but I like the feel of it...bloody hell it's bigger than I expected though, dwarves my little Logitech.
I'm looking forward to giving it a proper spin once I've got this lead problem sorted. :rock:
