Trim can help you at high speeds with certain planes, like MiG-3 whose controls lock up at high speed.

Call me a n00b but I find that freaking amazing. Any other little tips and tricks I should know?? Last night I tried some landings and that didn't go to well. |

I've never got on with IL-2 in any version, I used to put it down to crap machine but don't have that excuse any more, now I put it down to lack of practice. Tip for landing, whatever the other guys do for landing, don't! I don't think I've seen one screenshot of a good landing on here. :O: |

We think the wreckage tells you a story, the adventure the violence it saw and the luck the pilot had that he made it back alive. but most tend to agree that it only tells you how incompetent of a pilot we are :O: HunterICX |
Any landing you can recover identifiable pieces of the aircraft and pilot from is a good one...
|
Okay other than trims and such though, anything else I should map out or learn to use real well?? Any tips on shooting?? IM playing with realistic bullet path on now so they curve as Im pulling on the stick so its a PITA to hit things haha.

Do all planes have sights?? Because I flew the me 262 for fun and realized it doesn't have one. I also realized how ridiculously powered the jet is. I mean I dropped 2 b - 17s in like seconds. I always run against two b 17s to just fly new planes and fly them around and get a grip on them and such.

Most German fighters have off-center gunsights for some reason, so you have to switch the view to use them. |

That's about as much fire power as you will get in a WWII fighter. Not comparable to the .50 Cal. peashooters. It was designed to knock down heavy bombers (and therefore Hitler thought it would be a good idea to use it mainly as a fighter bomber....well he knew best of course....). |

My advice is to get with Jaw of the 8FS squadron. I think they've changed names but ask around in Hyperlobby and you'll find him.
Oh man I haven't flown IL-2 in sooo long... Its been over a year. I think I should get back in the saddle. I'll patch up tonight. Need a wingman? I used to fly ground attack like the angel of death and once I was on your tail I was like some sort of missile. |
Well I would very much like that offer but I doubt I could really do much online right now, I have kinda crappy internet. Maybe we'd have to see if I can keep my internet from being a PITA. I mean I played Xbox Live on it okay I had a decent connection most of the time but I think probably too much little bits of lag for a flying game to be any fun.
|
Okay now I am going to try online and see how my internet handles, what patch level do I need to be at? And where can I get all of the patches I need?
Also where or how do I get hyperlobby plus Id like to know if theres an essential GWX like mod that people usually use on here or if there are some nice skin packs, I'd really like some new looking planes. |
