  • what game is this?

  • Is this a game?

  • So.......4 B-17s embarked on a misision without any defensive gunners??

  • I think he is flying a mission created with the quick mission builder, he puts 4 novice B17, no flying escorts, unlimited damage (there is no way in that game to get out in one piece from a back attack on 4 B17, i tried it a lot only with 1 B17, impossible with realistic settings) and unlimited ammo (maybe, not sure).

    He is just getting fun shotting those great monsters.

    This is the greatest fly sim in my opinion, and the regular missions are VERY dificult with realistic settings, just try it

  • @Elgastonable Looks like the formation was pretty loose too. He was basically able to pick off the Forts one by one, when the whole purpose of the combat box was to make sure you COULDN'T do that. There's no way the MK 108 should be scoring hits and be outside the range of the .50's on the Forts. It's ballistics were lousy--purely a short range gun. At close range though, it was a nightmare for the bombers. Gunners had to be novice. Or blind.

  • @wilmanric1 Yeah, the guy was getting fun, but on this game, if you try it in realistic mode, maybe with luck you will down one B 17, but IF you survive the attack, probably yo will be unable to keep shoting or flying to attack another one.

    I say it again, for me is the best fly sim game i have ever played (i still doesnt played the second part: WINGS OF PREY).

    Just try it!!

    Greetings

  • @Elgastonable I don't have the game yet. It's on the list of things to get...then my wife can get even madder about the time I spend on the damn computer!

  • @wilmanric1 Oh it must be a pandemic, same here!

    Wifes arent uncompatible with computer games, pffff

  • @Elgastonable Someone sent around an email once about upgrading from Girlfriend 9.6 to Wife 1.0 and encountering bugs, including the spawning of child-processes, which further consume system resources. The writer wished there was a "minimize" feature and a "don't remind me again" button on Wife 1.0, which also loaded peripherals like Motherinlaw 63.4 and Unemployed BrotherinLaw 36.7

    A good read.

  • @wilmanric1 LOL!

    You made me laugh mate!

  • @Elgastonable Google it! There is a lot more than can be fit in a 500-char posting limit, including a warning against attempting to instal Mistress 1.0 which will cause Wife 1.0 to uninstall, deleting all MS Money files. Mistress 1.0 will then refuse to operate, citing insufficient system resources. If a file-sharing program like LapLink is used, undesirable viruses can spread.

    Google it, there are a whole number of other hilarious...and sadly, true...bits.

    Have a good one, buddy!

  • go do this in real !

  • omg even I shoot better

  • :(

  • Shite.

  • Nice imagination! The war ended in 1945! The P-51's had gutted the German fighter forces by this time. When Goring saw P-51's escorting B-17 bombers over Berlin, unaposed, in 1945 he knew the war was lost. Dream on!

  • @masteroftheeouse

    Hahaha great ( and accurate ) reply.

  • @masteroftheeouse surely the B17 heavy bombers were escorted by Mustangs and thunderbolt fighters.so this made it much more difficult for the german luftwaffe to destroy those B17 bomber's.but the Me 109 figher was a very effective and fast aircraft.some with superchargers and heavy machinegun's.the Focke Wulf W190 too it was even faster than the ME 109.But they were outnumbered by the USAF and RAF at this time..the rest is History,i like the german Horten Aircraft the prototype of the B2 Bomber

  • Comment removed

  • is that a good game? would i like to get it?

  • no mames con tus jueguitos

  • graj na normalnym poziomie trudności a nie easy :)

  • poziom trudności - easy. Graj na normalnym poziomie trudności :)

  • Geez, another kraut maggot living in Brazil. Ought to nuke the whole fucking place. Oh wait! President Moron is going to buy your oil!. You know, the stuff we are paying to help you send it to the USA? Yeah, nuke you spics and we take over.

  • what bullshit...grown ups playing something like this...

  • can il2 1946 work in windows 7

  • @Naruto17141 yes it can ;)

  • @88Tomm88 thx

  • @Naruto17141 np

  • @Naruto17141 np

  • @Naruto17141 yes but I had to run the Setup manually

  • Attacking a B17 in his six. Wow, that's a dumb thing to do.

    Both your B17s and yourself are complete rookies.

  • Fucking...video...games...ruin­ EVERYTHING

  • @kingmanted No you fucking idiot, this is the most realistic game on the fucking market. And believe me this is not a game to earn mass money like Call of Duty. So please, shut up and buy this game.

  • Great machine that the BF 109 was ......would it have been able to catch up to all four B-29's?

  • Sounds like i see a bunch of idiots arguing

  • what game was this?

  • ty vole to je pekna blbost ja litam sturmovika uz 9 let ted je mi 17 ale kdybi si dal tem fortesum aspon nejakou sanci a dal jim obranu 1. P51 nebo aby se mohli sami branit ty nejsi pilot ty si sracka

  • what game is this? IL-sturmovik?

  • A game - what crap!!

  • Man of that guy tried this in real war he will be shoot down like a fly....dont forget the gunners :)

  • This would be great if this was on Xbox live, massive online multi player real time. 10 guys in a B17 all with their own jobs to do, bomb runs over Berlin, Dresden, and Bremen.

    would be amazing.

    The last strumovik offering on xbox was lame, nothing like its PC counterparts.

  • ten dead every time a b17 bites it. Yahoo

  • Why would any American want to watch this?

  • thats what happend before the p51

  • Why arent they shooting back?? I Guarantee you wouldnt be able to just approach them casually like that. You would have had ALL of them shooting back at you at ONCE! You would have to attack from above swooping down, or from accross the side. Ditch the simulator...its nothing but junk and dont quit your day Job.

  • @TunedPortZ28 They probably have the realism settings turned down. IL2 is the most realistic wwii sim on the market. When I play it, like you said, I get torn to shreds if I come at a formation of bombers like that! :P

  • IL-2 Sturmovik

  • what is wrong with you OP?

  • what simulator is this?

  • @jasincl IL-2 1946

  • if you didnt have unlimited ammo on, you would have wasted all of your ammo in just one of those 600 shot volleys you did on those poor B-17s. But seriously man, you spend like 500 bullets on each B-17. :P it should only take about 1 second burst for good pilot to kill bomber.

  • its ok

    the B17s were headed for Dresden...

  • @Sturmmann - Yeah, at least it wasn't the Luftwaffe bombing London again and killing thousands and thousands of innocent civilians.

  • @JohnQuincyAdams1

    battle of the britain was a legit battle

    what happened to dresden couldve been avoided, the war was literally lost for germany

    2 different scenarios

    its was hypocrytical of the allies who always claimed to care about human life

  • @Sturmmann You can't deny, though, that it felt wonderful , seeing the dump get blown to hell! :-)

    Norm

  • @theshadow1932

    i dont find deaths of non combatants wonderful

    if it has shown us anything from the eastern front, its that it only strengthens the enemy's resolve, while your troops are at that point in battle already exhausted

  • @Sturmmann Whoo! Compassionate guy! Naive as hell, but compassionate! Blasting a country and it's people to gooey dust increases their resolve! :-D It's called WINNING. As for "noncombatants", remember the words of General Custer, "Nits grow into fleas."

    Norm

  • @Sturmmann

    Sure and when we dropped atomic bombs and kill a few hundred thousand civilians, we destroyed the Japanese will to fight.

  • @jinto1980

    2 bombs.....would you have rather sent another 58,000 Marines to die taking mainland Japan?

  • @Sturmmann 58,000? Projected losses on the invasion of japan were over 300,000

  • @mushrambo5

    my point was that, there was no reason to waste another 58,000 lives in the effort

    im not denying it wouldve been even bloodier than the ETO alone

  • @jinto1980 Japan had already lost the will to fight beforehand.

    The dropping of the bombs wasn't to stop the war, it was to show the world what power they US had.

  • @ThazuaBlackarrow Not at all, if the U.S. didn't drop the bomb, Japan wouldn't have ever surrendered, we would have to send troops throughout Japan to flush them out eventually leading to a major battle in Tokyo, as a result hundreds of thousands of men would have died on both sides, and Britain probably would of had to join. The fire bombings occurred before the bombings and that was really an attempt to end the war earlier.

  • @Sturmmann

    Well the allies didn't kill 6 million Jews.

  • @jinto1980

    they let it happen, same thing

    roosevelt even sent a boatload of jews back to germany fully knowing their fate upon arrival

  • @Sturmmann

    "They let it happen, same thing"

    That is like saying a victim of a rape let it happen because she couldn't fight the rapist off. The Allies didn't know of the German's concentration & extermination camps until 1942. The Nazi's and that bastard Hitler deserved every bit of fire and brimstone they got.

  • @jinto1980

    the nazis and the uniformed service men, perhaps

    but not civilians in dresden or hamburg

    the war was already over, churchill just wanted and eye for an eye

    the victim doesnt have a choice, but those watching the rape do have a choice to stop, you misunderstood me.

    those watching were both allies and good hearted germans

    something along the lines of that cliche edmund burke quote

    its hypocrytical to hang a nazi in 1945 while you had all the chances to stop him in the 30s

  • @Sturmmann

    Your defense of the holocaust is very disturbing. You are a very delusional, and sick person. There is no defense of what those nazi's did. Rounding up Jews, the disabled, gay people, gypsy's, political prisoners, and Russian POW's.The sent them to camps as slave labor and those to old or to slow working where executed. The roving death squads in Nazi held Russia during 1941 where in one day 10000 Jews where executed.

    Your ignorant of history and for that there is no excuse.

  • @jinto1980

    once again, you have a very shallow judgment of character

    you are believing what you want to believe.

    you forgot about hamburg and dresden as soon as the word jew started ringing in your ear

    i could give a fuck less about who died, but the principle and hypocrysy bother me more

  • @jinto1980

    the way i see it, roosevelt was also a butcher, he sent those jews back fully knowing what would happen to them.

    he made the life or death decission right there on his own shores, it goes to the point where you cant even blame the butchers on the other side for what they did afterwards

    for roosevelt to criticize the outcome is stupid, did he actually expect the nazis to change their minds in the process? he fully knew what he was doing, he was an accomplice

  • @Sturmmann

    As you are ignorant of history let me fill you in on some things. The USA had been using the foreign policy of Isolationism. Where unlike today we kept our nose out of everyone's business. France and the UK knew Hitler was bad news, but they didn't have popular support for war. See only 20 years before there was a world war. A lot of folks who lived thru that, prolly didn't wanna jump back into war.

  • @jinto1980

    isolationism is a pretty word for letting evil things happen to other human beings, right on your own shores

    the outcome of those jews that were turned away wasnt changed or justified by that pretty little policy

  • @jinto1980 America never used a foreign policy of isolationism. America was sending war supplies to Russia, China & Britain long before its official declaration. American destroyers were attacking German u-boats in 1940 and seeing as how this was done without a formal declaration of war, it was a war crime. The definition of neutral is: "Not taking part or giving assistance". So no, you didn't keep your nose out of everyone's business. All America did was sell arms and then lie about it.

  • @jinto1980 but they killed millions of germans,austrians,italians and japanese.so they are humans too.and the massive bombing on german main citys were totally unnecessary.millions of civilians died dont even mention the beautyful historic buildings wich were totally destroyed.anyway have a nice day and peace.

  • This poor b 17 must have running out of ammo. I never see one of them fire even a single shot. I bet you can't kill all of them if they would shoot back. And like sikwitit said: turn the unlimited ammo of.

    sturmovik rocks, especially online

  • squid is a delicious way to start this nutritious breakfast

  • this is a really good game with heaps of interesting planes in it but they really need to fix up the bullet graphics

  • I got to get off my rear end and get me a pc and get this game. 

  • prove that i am wrong with resources not just say oh you are ignorant and you read comic books which is quite vague

  • Ah, I see. The B 17 gunners are so paralysed with fear they don't even open fire, and the Germans use inflight rearming.

    Seriously now, it would have been possible for a single 109 to take on four unescorted B17, but the best tactic would have been to dive at almost 700km/h out of the sun, open up with cannon at 200 yards, keep diving until out of range, then repeat the whole thing. This was tried with some success against US bombers over Ploiesti in 1944, but no chance of you downing 4...

  • Wish ther was a P-51 Mustang around to flame his Nazis ass!

  • All that was going for the Luftwaffe were cartoons like this one. The British, using untested pilots and outnumbered 11:1 in aircraft, beat the living shit so badly out of Goering's big bad air force, it couldn't soften up Britain for an invasion. That caused Hitler to turn east and finally be swallowed up by Soviet and partisan forces. I say the Luftwaffe was 10% effective and 90% hype.

  • @39rc6cf I say your full of shit the Luftwaffe lost the battle of Britain for this reason. They moved bombing from the British airfields to the cities of Britain including London because British bombers in the night bombed German cities. Yes England wanted the Germans to bomb their cities in retribution so that they would take the pressure off of the airfields how inhuman is that?

  • @greencurrycamo , how many comic books do you read in a week? I mean, hey fellow, do you realize what an enormously misguided ignoramus you are?

  • @39rc6cf so you are just going to make fun of me but not disprove my facts so be it.

  • @greencurrycamo , indeed. You're so freaking ignorant, it certainly is not hard to make fun of you. Prove to you? You must be nuts. Why would anyone try to prove anything to a denier of historical facts?

  • This is Il 2 sturmovik and dont be fooled by the retardness of this vid, he is playing on the easiest possible mode, realistic mode kicks ass.

  • This is garbage B-17s dont fly in small formations like this of course it would be a cake walk. Go up against 20 of these beasts in a tight formation and you'd never know what hit you.

  • Looks awful compared to micro ww2

  • what is this game title???

  • This looks like some training mode. Normally those four fortresses, would teach a serious lesson that Me-109 pilot.

  • looks like aces high 2 a bit

    

  • noob

  • Oh god. more video game horse shit. Does anyone do anything real anymore?

  • Ok kids.. What game is this? Looks cool...

  • Hehe unlimited ammo, no ammo for gunners, prob external views on... i can take on 1337 b-17's like that... after that ill get bored with turkey shooting.

  • @broworm1 Agreed,this video is worthless...

  • what game is this?

  • lol ya kinda unrealistic that a single Me-109 could destroyed 4 B-17s. Not that it never happened (with ratios)... but still

  • The inverted flat spin was pretty cool

    

  • B-17s dont shoot at you at all ! I tried that with fully armed B-17s and I got slaughtered

  • pshh.. put some gunners on those Flying fortresses and throws some Mustangs into the mix. Bye Gerry!

  • why doesnt the b-17 shoot back they hafe butt guns boddy guns and stuff

    realy strange

  • THe US boys have fear about the MK 108 !!!

    No chance for a B-17.

  • я тоже так могу...умник!!!!!!!!!!

  • give the B-17s some amo and then try to do that again

  • @pittpens10562 he said sooting down some b17 not fighting them

  • part 2...... Don't think the 109 would have gotten that close to break them up. A Fw190 yes, but a 109 alone against 4 B-17's? I don't see that happening, maybe he disabled the guns in the B-17's?

  • I just looked it up, it would normally take about 25 hits with a 20mm to take down a flying fortress (depending on the pilots aim, but this was supposidly the average.) This gun in the vid is a 30mm round, made of steel not brass so it could punch into the guts of a huge plane like the B-17. The rounds could be armor peircing, high explosive or incideary rounds. What I thought was BS in this vid is not as far as damage, but a formation like that with 5 .50cals in each plane?

  • That's so unreal. In real life a bf-109 would not have been able to shoot down a B-17 that easy. The tail gunner would have tore the 109 up.

  • americans and germans are the same shit anyways....!!!

    60 percent of your fucking decendants are germans.....

    no wonder youre fucking racist.....

    supremacists.....pieces of shit....

  • americans and germans are the same shit anyways....!!!

    60 percent of your fucking decendants are germans.....

    no wonder youre fucking racist.....

    supremacists.....pieces of shit....

  • @elbandido007 I don't know how you came to that conclusion. England and Germany are more closely related then America and Germany. The Anglos and Saxons had lived together for centuries, with English being a western German language. America's only ties to Germany in that respect is that Americans speak a dialect of their language that we got from the English when they ruled us.

  • terrible aim

  • Yeah next time idiot remove the wings of the BF109, give your BF109 no ammo and no gas to run, because the stupid Krauts didnt have balls and the recources to run that shit. Give the B-17 unlimited ammo, health and 2 nuclear bombs.

    And then you have to type in "America cant lose a war, such like in Vietnam XD XDX D XD. Germaie sucks cocksuckers, fools bitches and nazis! <- haha in USA the grammar doesnt matter Hahaha Krautsucker, Loser Noobs XD

    Armes Deutschland *auf´n Rücken klopf*

  • Comment removed

  • I have to correct my comment 3 days ago : Remembering the big Schweinfurt air raid of the 8th USAAF bomber command on Oct 14, 1943 it was possible for Me Bf 109 to shoot down B-17. 60 planes out of 291 were shot down and 121 were damaged seriously.

    Anyway, the comments on that vid were right : give onbord weapon with ammo to the B-17 and set difficulty stage to realistic / most difficulty. Probably, you will get 1 B-17 before you were nailed down by B-17 crossfire of tail-gunners.

  • You must be a very skilled pilot! Wow, I wish my planes all had unlimited Mk108 ammo! I wish I could just hold the trigger down without the use of any skill and kill 4 B-17s within 2 minutes!

  • @Ode1029 i can KILL 4 B17 within 2 mins in the realistic mode

    always use Ki84! IJA/IJN Fighters are Best!

  • @SASORI5140 Yes thats because the Ki84 is a bomber interceptor. IL2 isnt perfectly realistic and it is easy to do that in game, but not the same in real life.

  • @Ode1029 Totally agree with you!

  • good video cut, but to be honest - a single Bf-109 even fully armed with maximum numbers of canons mk-108 or mg 151/20 ff never ever was able to shoot down even 1 single B-17 ;-)

    Only the Me-262 1A-1 had the chance because of the speed, same as Me-163 B "Kraftei" or the He-162 "Volksjäger".

    Probably the best B-17 killer would have had been the Gotha Go 229 or so called Horten IX because of the very slim line and high speed - hard to handle for any B-17 onbord gunner.

  • The 109 I love, but there is NO WAY in hell a G6 could take down 4 B-17's like that.

  • @mrceebees14 Me262 or He162 can do that

  • B-17 with americans are nice to see go down :)

  • how do you get the camera on 2:03 ?

  • With these wonderful PC games you can win the war again and again and again and ....

  • game name?

  • @TeamRedz

    IL-2

  • This stinks like my grandma's panties!

  • WEAKSAUCE! Try it with limited ammo and with the B-17s shooting back at you; you'll be lucky to knock one down before becoming a corpse/parachutist

  • lol make the B-17 aces not noobs when you choose them and do the same...or do it an War no way you survive you have to go high fast down hit and high again so that the rear gunners cant shoot you!

  • Why do people post this rubbish?

  • @tpsossff TOTALLY AGREE ... THIS IS KIDDY SHIT

  • do not put fake shit on here wasting my time on stupid crap

  • @sewallm60 TOTALLY AGREE .... THIS IS KIDDY SHIT

  • I highly doubt bombers did that when it came to a raid..they didnt even shoot back

  • Yeah i have B-17: flying fortress. Might have to dig that out, been playing Pacific Fighters lately but there are far too many buttons to remember. You need one of them old school things that sits over your key board and tells you all the buttons like i had on my Amiga 1200 lol :P

  • @AreURaptureReady You are mentally ill!! Get help!

  • Can someone recommend me some games like Silent Hunter but your in a Bombard Plane?

  • @crashh96 you could try B17: Flying fortress, but its quite old, gameplays still good though :)

  • Try this in birds of prey or wings of prey, put the b-17's on veteran level, limit your ammo and they'll tear you to pieces if you approach from the 6 like that. Or even from similar altitude. You'll need to attack from above, in a curved, slashing motion, at as high speed as possible to prevent their gunners from drawing lead or firing more than 1-second bursts.

  • im with pyromaster247. add a couple of fighters and actualy use the turrets. thatd make it more interesting :)

  • This is what happend to b 17s whithout escort, the number of german planes downed by US bombers is ridiculesly exagerated, manytimes 20 or more b 17s where credited for the sme german plane.

  • BEEEE SEVENTEEEEN BOEWMEERR

  • IL-2 Pacific fighters has some good effects and infrastructure. BUT, the flight dynamics are just terrible. Compared to the much older Combat Simulator 2 game it's a a turnoff if you're interested in WW2 air warfare.

  • @hanravn

    Does that mean that no better simulation has been produced since CS2? I bought CS2 so many years ago.. amazing...

  • @silverbud

    It depends on what you`re after. As a shooting up game others may be more fun, but CFS2 is f.ex the only one where you can set up historically correct campaigns using the entire world as a theater.

  • @hanravn try blazing angels squadrons of ww2

    that is a near perfect flight game

  • @bigmacdaddy35 , Yes, looks promising. I will try it some day..

  • @bigmacdaddy35 blazing angels sucks dude not realalistic at all IL-2 is much more relalistic

  • explotions should be larger

  • Wasn't the B-17 the only bomber that shot down more enemy planes than were shot down of itself? IIRC, I believe I've heard surviving German pilots say they'd rather face a Mustang, Thunderbolt, Lighting or Spitfire than go up against a B-17.

  • @Yakko77 I don't blame them, a fighter of that era could only shoot forward, so 1 on 1, you were pretty evenly matched as compared to attacking the B-17, which had no real blind spots. Your best hope against the 17 is a head on attack, try to kill the crew through the glass bubble. Only trouble with that is that it takes some real balls and skills to fly head on at a plane, shoot ACCURATELY, and the get the hell out of the way; most pilots couldn't do it.

  • @PhatFarm60 nonsense! bombers without escort were sitting ducks. trying to hit a small fighter plane traveling in excess of 300 miles per hour with b17 guns was near impossible. it happened, but not like the movies or video games. In fact day light bombing was nearly called off until the advent of the fighter escort.

  • where are escorts when you need them..............

  • This movie should be more appropriately titled "German planes take it deep in the butthole" because that's what would have really happened.....

  • were do u get this game

  • if a german pilot was actually able to pull this off, and there would DEFINATELY have been air support with the bombers, but if not and a pilot pulled this off he would be a legend in germany no doubt

  • someone like Red Baron :)

  • Hey does anyone know how to be able to fly the B-19? I could fly it but i will try to make a game but it doesent show it on the list to fly :/ is it possible? If so please tell me

  • This is Pacific Fighters right? i love this game :D

  • U will never get me down ... in every bomber with 2 eninge´s or more... these bots are easy just shoot em and they jump

  • Comment removed

  • next time you turn limited ammo on

  • I was about to say the same thing.

    The whole exercise is even more futile since boxes of B-17s by no mean flew isolated and each attacked fortress would have been supported by those flying close to it.

    Oh, and I am by no means a yankee-lover but when something's stupid you have to say it.

  • @sikwitit345 Yep, he's got John Wayne guns,. They never run out of bullets. 

  • Little known fact. B-17s shot down more enemy aircraft than any other plane in WW2. Including fighters.

  • Very known fact. In IL-2, B-17´s shot down even more enemy aircraft than any other plain in WW2 if they are controlled by the AI. Including EVERYTHING.

  • 01:22 when the planes wing was shot off like that the B17 would of went into a really bad spin and the other wing would probably tear off aswell from the pressure.

  • those were americans not japs.

  • if your talking about panzersRULE then i think he means the ones he was shooting at were japanese...just saying =D

  • Comment removed

  • the lack of formation in those bombers is disturbing that lone Mess would be in a world of hurt flying in like that.

  • The wings usually break off when I shoot at bombers with armament like that. But then again, those were Japanese bombers...

  • Looks like unlim ammo and easy AI. Lame.
