It's kinda reticules some one can hit me when the on my 8 o'clock 1000 out and im doin 460 mph in my
262 and he can just blast taters ad hit me

  yeah that's GHI    he got my 262 the other day! I typed--> LOL GS G! he replied, (sorry I owe you some perks)!    At least he said he was sorry

F3 mode! Big load of BS!! Let's get in a il2 and fly f3 mode the while time and blast taters on deflection shot that can never be made







Flame it up

Oh so that's how Ghi does it. I knew I smelled a rat.

F3 mode in the MA for any vehicle type = Lame.  Please remove from game.

thank You

Can teh Il-2 be flown in the F3 mode or only gunned in F3 mode?

Don't remove it, but say a 1-2 second delay when going from F3 to cockpit and vise versa would be good! And maybe no shooting from F3 also!

It can be flown and shoot while in F3

[JUGgler]

  But planes?  no outisde views for those guys.....unless of course the pilot was out in the open.  That is to say, flying a plane that had no canopy.  But even then....he is in a sense buttoned up, seatbelted in so to speak.

Now you know why hartman was sooo successful

Ghi stats so far this tour in an IL-2

Il-2      174      3      1     110

I think someone is exploiting the F3 mode to gain advantage in SA when dogfighting the iL-2.  Needs to be fixed. that's not the intent or spirit of the game.

Well fixing it will make vuching less risky, I say NO!

Tweaking it, maybe

Not sure how effective the iL-2's is in preventing "vulching", but that really shouldn't be an excuse for allowing this kind of bastardization of the game principles.

Jo, did you get Ghi-ed?

U bet

Both

I still say F3 gunning mode is a myth. I have been able to pull off some great shots on passing aircraft always from the pilots seat in an IL-2.

I have gone offline to try & do this in F3 mode & it is near impossible to do on a regular basis. For an entire clip of an IL-2  the best I could do was two aircraft from 400 yards dead 6.

From the pilots seat I nailed 8 from any angle I approached from. Keep in mind these are aircraft just flying in circles. So F3 mode is killing 262's zipping by at jet speeds with a pilot trying to get out of your way? Granted I am not the expert on an IL-2 compared to GHI maybe he can share his thoughts on how he gets it done.

Better still who ever is shooting from F3 mode & landing kills post a video of this. If there are those who are doing it on a regular basis I think it will be a very short list of people who can.

You didn't get hit with the "tater" (37mm). You got hit with the 23mm. The Il-2's 23mm in game have
excellent ballistics and I have bagged people at 1k with them. It's a flying wirbelwind.

I'll admit that I frequently shoot and kill from the F3 mode and don't care whether you think it's "gamey"
or not. 95% of the time if you find me in an IL-2 the base is being vultched and the vultchers are getting their just reward.

[danny76]

Vulching, however irritating cannot be described as gamey, if it ever happened, and I doubt it did, chaps taking a field would kill everyone trying to up, rather than allowing them a chance to kill them.

F3 mode is too unrealistic for words. Shouldn't be available anywhere but in the TA.

I know reticules

Do you guys mean Ridiculous?

reticules is a small woman's handbag...maybe your referring to a purse fight?
