even if we had the B-29 it wouldn't make up for the IL-2 in tank killing and it doesn't climb like a B-17 so I'd still use it for short range bombings but with the new strat system i think it would be well suited for long range runs I can do without the CFCS controlled guns
The IL2 and the B-29 hardly compare, so using that as a comparison as to why other bombers wouldn't be rendered hanger queens isn't valid.
B-29 carries a larger payload and carries more of it and would be the fastest piston engine bomber in game, don't kid yourself if you don't think it would be selected over any other bomber, regardless of the mission.
I believe that is a mistaken thought. By all rights the bigger bombers should have made the Ju87 a hangar queen and yet we still see them. If the ENY of the B-29 makes perk farming with it impossible then the other bombers will still fly. A hefty perk value can go a long way in that department.
Hefty perk cost will only hinder those that haven't been playing that long. There is a very large group of players with enough bomber perks that they can fly the B-29 exclusively and lose them every flight for as long as they play.
