WarBirds Battle of Britain

[Federicoxxx]

uggg this game is fucking horrible.. too daam complicated..

you need some kind of degree on aeronautics just to take off

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx It's a simulation. What did you expect? X-wing: Alliance?

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

i need a title a p.h.d 2 play ?

just taking off.. is like sitting in front of a space shuttle..

the best i did with this game is.. explode ..on the ground.

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

well maybe thats the problem.. is just too simulated

you need a button combination for everething.. .from g forces.. to flaps

to speed.. even mosquitos,. diying on the airplane windshield..

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

trash bin.. was the best thing i could do with this..shitty airplane game..

are you a pilot? ..i think you really need to know how to fly a real plane..

before even think ..touching this game...

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

any game....any airplane. .game you cant take off.. of the ground.. in more than 3 days..is seriously...bad xd

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

give me the millenum falcon ..it would be more easy ...to control ..than this shit

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

haaaa i get it! i know. .why..i cant take off.... i forget to tie my shoelaces..

or maybe i dont brush my theets...

or it was the seatbelt? . .is that why ?

is really that good simulated?!

jeez

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

what the fuck is a Flap ? .. stall?

it have something 2 do with staling ?

how do i use it? ..

jeez i need to start..reading those.. books of phisics.. ASAP!

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

i need a simulator ..to simulate my ... studies, and get PHDS and DEGREES....

on HARVAD...or in the USAF ... to begin with ?

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

quick question. .Maverick ....

when you need 2 know.. what it feel like download a game so big for days...

and not be able to take off.. no matter what you try

you can ask me... the "no take off. at fucking all" guy °_°

btw the.. fire of the plane explosion ..really fucking suck ass...

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx Wow dude, chill.

You obviously expected a game that took care of everything, as opposed to a simulator, which is what this is.

I have flown planes before, and Warbirds is an excellent approximation of the difficulty of flying a prop plane. It takes a while to get into the air in real life as well. Flaps allow you to fly at low speeds, so you can land safely, so I would suggest trying them when you land. There's nothing wrong with this game; it's simply above your skill level.

[Federicoxxx]

@millenniumf1138

what is trim ? how do i disabled it?

i think is more hard take off than. .land lol

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx Actually, I find landing to be harder than taking off lol. :)

Trim is just a term that refers to adjusting the plane's control surfaces by small amounts. You can't disable it, but you can activate the autotrim by pressing X.

Takeoffs are easier if you fly a plane that has twin props, like the P-38. Single engine planes like the F4U-4 have what's called engine torque, which means the spinning prop will make a plane list right or left. Compensate by using the rudder (A and D).

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx The proper way to take off is to turn on the engine (E), throttle up to maximum RPM and wait for your speed to hit about 80 to 100 MPH. Then pull gently back on the stick and retract the main gear by pressing G. If you point your nose at an angle of about 30-45 degrees, you won't stall. Make sure you hold her steady as you climb to avoid rolling over and augering in.

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx Landing is harder, though.

Firstly, line up your plane with the runway about 2k feet up and lower your gear. Then as you approach the runway, lower your RPM to minimum and extend the flaps. The lower you have the flaps set, the more sluggish your plane will feel, but that's what we want. It gives you more control this way. Descend slowly, or you'll damage your plane when you first bounce.

[millenniumf1138]

@Federicoxxx Finally, when you feel your first bounce, lower the nose and hit the brakes (SPACE). Again, be gentle with it. When the plane touches down the second time, it should stay down. Then simply roll to a stop and exit your plane.

If you have any more questions, I'm all ears. :)

[weylin6]

I really wish you guys could put up free to play option that only allows you to fly a limited selection of aircraft or something.

I'd like to be able to just try out online play to see how things go over, and if it's even something I want to pay for.

I payed $30 for a CD that looked like it was burned 5 months ago, left sitting around on a desk, and then stuck in a discount do-it-yourself CD case

[maddog4u31757]

@weylin6 Try Aces High II by HiTech Creations. They have a free 2 week trial! :)

[ferrabras]

I played Warbirds in 1998-200, and it was great by then. It looks much better now! Now with daughter, wife and job it's kind of hard to find time to play it!

Who knows, some day I find the time....

[Mcrxwolf]

jwstealey, did you make this? This is art 

[flemmong]

Wonderfull fitting music for once!

[Julian24151]

Can you use a keyboard for this ?

[greasyredneck]

i downloaded this and i still dont know if you need a joystick for this, i cant play it, do you know if you need a joystick to play it

[ferrabras]

Long time since my last flight in Warbirds. It was in 2001! Lot of improvement since then from what I've seen in this video!!! I'll give it a try soon.

[CJLinton]

I had Warbirds years ago, was okay but after getting into IL-2 1946 its just a poor relation... though if a new ones come out then it might be worth a shout :)

[jwstealey]

WarBirds 2009 is out and running. WarBirds not a single player game like IL 2 but a Massively Multiplayer Online game where many other great virtual pilots will shoot you down if you don't get your skills up quickly!

Awesome!!!

[LtLethal1]

really liked this game a while ago but was pretty bad cause i flew a p40 everytime cause it looked cool...nowz i knowz betta. And it was a good kill at 2:45

[pen24]

P40 isnt a bad plane. You just can't be a noob and turn it like a spit.

[zzirSnipzz]

@pen24 it was outdated even before war. ppl flying spits and hurricanes werent noobs you dunce

[zzirSnipzz]

@pen24 it was a terrible plane even the p-51 was terrible till you put the spitfire engine in it

[HAWKEYE8430]

Man I havent played warbirds in a while great vid btw

[TwistinFool]

This a pc game like WoW where you pay monthly or you buy the CD and ply?

[tournon71]

used to play warbirds but it kind of lost it's credibility when they included a 'sabre' in a WW2 game?!

[jwstealey]

No Sabre in the WW II game. It is only when we do Korean scenarios. Did you play in that?

[tournon71]

No, I didn't actually know there was a Korean scenario! But then this was about 4 years ago. Fair play, I'll give it another go!

[asmumy]

Good!

I play Warbirds 3 and Warbirds 2.77 :D

[jwstealey]

You need to come play the current WarBirds too.

Lots better with lots of new things coming.

Wild Bill Stealey

[digofabu]

[asmumy]

LOL madvad, you're worst :D

[riflelord2]

i like il-2 more then this game

[jwstealey]

How much have you played WarBirds?

Come flying with me.

[Geforce2187]
