F3 view and the il2

[JOACH1M]

that is a little harsh irish.  

I've fought Ghi in a 109G14 and a 163 and he is a good pilot + shot.   Maybe some noobs somewhere will now be able to horde vulch a field in peace.  It would make me laugh every time he pulled a shot off against friendlies and squaddies.  

Especially JockyM's 262 one day.  

Ya 1 day...how about 2 in a week

 Of Course F-3 mode is a huge advantage if you don't think so go to the DA for 10 minutes and fly against the DA Queens. They are the Red Barron and Erich Hartmann all rolled into one in there because of F-mode. The same is true of the IL-2 in the MA. Now that the IL-2 has no F-3 mode HTC needs to take a look at some new cockpit views for it. If it is a fighter type aircraft now it needs fighter view to go with it.

Why?

cause it has a "fixed forward firing gun"


if it's good for the goose then it's good for the gander

the fact that you cant see out of it is the whole point.   all that armor comes at a price, that price is visibility.  if you gave it unrealistic views you might as well bring F3 back.   no good.

Sorry.    The gaming the game crap is being whittled out and I applaud HTC for it.

Personally don't care as this issue never affected me as I can't hit squat in F3 mode gunning. Storm in a tea cup in my opinion far more gamier things going on than F3 mode shooting.

you've lost it jug...if the 88 was a single engine attack plane or dive bomber ok...but only in ah is it used like a stuka. speaking of which, isn't f3 mode still enabled for the stuka? shouldn't be.

I miss the F3 view in the Il2. Say what you like, but I did have good fun furballing in it and the massive amount of solid armor in the cockpit makes that pretty hard now. I still try, but meh. I'll agree that being able to shoot from F3 mode was a bit much; I always hopped back into F1 for that. I'd rather they had disabled guns when in external view than remove the view, but that's just the opinion of one or two guys against the horde.

The Ju 88 had dive brakes for a reason.

The IL-2 is not a fighter type aircraft.
