So IL2 can get 200+ people in the arena now?????

If not, no interest here.. No use at all for Boxed games.. Exactly what good are planes that you cant fly against other people?

The 190a5 is useless with even 1 loadout if ya cant fly it against other people!!

Dog out......

Wardog, I don't think DA98 was trying to convert you, just relaying info.

And you can actually fly it against other people....well ya can if you can actually get online with it just not quite 200 of them.

Wardog, I'm not trying to convert anyone, the post is just for the people who bought IL-2 or may be interested in buying it. There was great expectation about what the new plane could be, so I thought that some people might be interested in knowing that the plane is the Fw-190 A5 (with a lot of toys to play with  :D).

About the MP... I played some MP missions with the beta, and you are right, there aren't 400 players connected as in the MA, 16/32 (coop/dogfight) is the maximum. But if you tried and liked the CT arena, you know that you don't need 400 players to have fun in a realistic environment  :).

It is a perfectly crappy game if you want 200 AWAC's following dweebs gangbanging you and stealing your kills, insulting you all the while.  On the other hand, you and 15 of yer Buds can fly it and have time of your life.

Hmmmm

nope, still not sold.

After 5 years in AW-DOS, 5 Years in WBS and 2 years in AH, i still have no interest in the Boxed game. Even in AH latenight early moring i can find 80 or so guys flying.

16/32 guys in IL2, they all on at different times of the day, 24 hours a day?

Gladfly, im sure your a good shoe salesman. Please stay with it, cause sellin Box games just aint workin for ya  ;)

Dog out........

the on-line is not near as big as aces but for individual missions it kicks ass.
you can set up 16 guys on a mission, define objectives and if somebody don't show your nights not screwed you just assign his slot to ai. this game rocks i traded in all my other flight sims last weekend.

It isn't for everyone, and I had serious doubts, but, provided 5 or 8 people can hook up, it is sweet.  It won't replace AH or any other game; think of it as an extremely detailed Scenario, something you organize, not a MA type thing.

It's not MMPG but it is a sim with nice FM and DM and stunning graphics with real looking cockpits, snow-storms and rains, lightnings etc etc.

It'w worth of money  :)

You who have IL2, try to sometime set up big artillery to barrage a city with enemies in there and then set up few cameras and go enjoy the show  :)

Especially interesting with subwoofer.

Well, Wardog, I played WB for 2 years, AH for 2, and now I prefer a setup like il2 to MMOP.  If I was into arena play I'd probably still be into AH.  But Il2 makes historical missions come alive.  Of course, there's none of the versatility of AH or WB or AW, but my WWII interests reside in the Great Patriotic War, and not much else  :)

Why are you trying to convince him?
He's stubborn and close minded (because he never played the game)

I'm sure that if he tries it, and at least TRIES to like it, he will enjoy it.
If he doesnt, then who cares.

Wardog after 12 years spent being part of a community you'd learn to be more polite with people...
