Il2 Update 5.101 "FC Vol.II, Spitfire Mk.XIVe"
jeanba replied to 76.IAP-Blackbird's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: News
The problem with AI is not as ennemy but as "friendly" : not enough orders, they do not follow orders, no "call for help" if you are a wingman ... WOFF and WOTR are best for single player and AI is very immersive- 8 replies

Il2 Update 5.101 "FC Vol.II, Spitfire Mk.XIVe"
jeanba replied to 76.IAP-Blackbird's topic in IL-2 Series / Pacific Fighters / Cliffs of Dover: News
The game is quite interesting, and I play it fairly often. I recently played saldy's Blitz campaign and it was real good. The AI is a big problem for me anyway. I think that having regular update is important because if I don't have them, I stop playing it. Which is not the case for SF2 for instance- 8 replies

I understand, this is not my favorite way of playing, but I need to accept it. Another suggestion about campaigns would be the possibility when you die or are prisonner to "play as repalcement pilot": The character you create (of the same nationality of course) would be start the campaign in the same unit and "replace" the next replacement pilot, continuing the history of the squadron and its surviing members (if you recreate a pilot at the same date as you die, the squadron history is unlikely to be the same) So, it is still "dead is dead", but you can as a player continue the campaign in an immersive and realistic way.

Neptune's Dance Hall : Etendard, Crusader ...

Indeed, I have a different approach, which I inherited from other games (1946, SF2 ...): When playing career campaigns, I love "dead is dead" because this is the center of interest of a campaign : keep your pilot alive. The experience is not only in flying one mission, but also how you are chaining several missions. Usually, I play quick combat for technical reaons : check if FPS is ok, check key assignation, check if a mod is correctly installed => once I have the information I need, I quit the game, that's why I need "pilot never dies". The risk is that I encounter a "problem" during career, switch directly to "quick combat", quit over ennemy territory => "pilot dies", and then I have to go back to character creation again (or "quit and restart", which may take more time than the mission itself (even going to workshop ... takes some time I feel wasted in this context) For simple mission, I think the interest is not to "be alive" but to discover the mission as the designer created it. In "1946" for instance, there are some historical missions that are hard to survive and they are "single". There is no interest in chaining sevral missions.

My problem is that I always forget to tick it in the OC or Quick Scenario :)
-
For point 1, "easy" in campaigns menas "pilot never die", and this is not what I want. But for quick mission and quick scenario, I need this because I use quick missions for training, checks ..., so I often die or leave the mission over ennemy territory, "killing" my pilot inadvertedly. So I would like to have two setting, one for campaigns and one for quick secanrri and missions, if possible For point 2, I did not find a RPM icon in WOTR nor WOFF :(

Hello Is it possible to edit the info displayed on HUD such as ammo ... ? I'd like to display info such as ammo as it takes too much room Thank you in advance

Hi, I am back to WOFF / WOTR and really enjoy it, but I have a small request: 1 - For quick combat and quick scenario, I would like the "pilot never dires" activated by default because I use them to train myself and usually quit the mission one I have done what I wanted, unnesecarily losing a pilot and having to go thorugh the whole creation process 2 Would it be possible to have a rpm icon ?

Community MOST WANTED
jeanba replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
It is a plot from the PRC, they are using SF2 to train against ROC, do not model it ! On only Mirage 2000D and 2000N and Iran F5A and Ethiopian F5A can save the world ! -
What will be next ?
jeanba replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
In practice, the N and D were used for exactly the same missions (fortunatly, because if the N had been used for its specific nuclear strike mission :( ). N over Bosnia and D over Kosovo. I think that this abominous mistake is an offense to the entire world and should only be forgiven if you cumulate the votes and mulitply them by 152655.95 -
What will be next ?
jeanba replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
As a sidenote, I think you should "merge" 2000N and 2000D, Both are bombers/ GA aircraft and the 2000D is an improvement of the 2000N (like 2000-5 vs 2000C). The 2000 that was shot down in Bosnia in 1995 was a 2000N K2 -

jeanba replied to UllyB's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Actually, I would like an Iranian and an Ethiopian version of the F5A. Maybe it is just about skinning ?
