its funny how people complained about the Il2 in the first place... so what if they upped them to defend a base... if you want to attack the base, then make sure to bring enough ords to drop all the hangars not just the fighters.
Heck, when i vulch a field, not like i get the opportunity to do so often anyways, I welcome the people to up the IL2 and A20... they are fun to fight against and if you can aim and not try to ho every single plane like some vulchers try to do, they are very easy to kill.
This whole F3 view argument i think is retarded. The only people worried or complaining about the f3 use is the ones who only care about score. And if they only care about score, more than likely, they also only care about themselves in game and wont help others. I say if you are being beat by inferior plane and are trying to use the whole f3 argument as your excuse, then you need to go to another game because its not their fault, its yours for putting yourself in the position that they could even get a shot on you.
