It sucks, that you can't shoot wings off in birds of prey... This game is better, because it's fun to massecrate the plane in air. like, shooting wings off and the back or front :3 it's awesome
I got the game but it lags alot do to my crapy graphics card :(. i miss my old computer. Still a very good game the graphics on the first one were stuning
hey i just bought this game and i have vista 64 bit, i installed the game no problem but when ever i try and double click the icon to start it it just shows the spinning disk icon and does nothing... anyone know how to fix this plz? i really want to play this game! ._.
I've got vista and it works fine for me...But try this. Right click the game icon, go to properties, then compatibility, and change it to something other than Windows Vista. It might work! Good Luck!
This game will never be legal downloadable free! And if you do this illegal, you think not about the great efford the creators did for YOU, and so you can leave this don´t much money, in germany you can it for 10€.
You can now get the game for £2.25 off Steam as a part of the Ubisoft Classic Pack. The other games included are Beyond Good and Evil, Far Cry and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic altogether for £8.99!!!
there was a british pilot who acually flew next to a v2 buzz bomber (I think thats what they were called, the german missle thingies) and he used his wing to tip the bomb to make it go out of control
That would be the V1 unmanned flying bomb. The V2 looked more like a traditional rocket; certainly British Pilots took down V1s in this way, I'm not sure about V2s
The americans called them flying cigars for two reasons: 1. They looked like cigars 2. The caught fire all the time since their fuel tanks were unprotected. :)
Flying cigars eh? I'll remember that one. ^.^ I'll use it next time I play IL-2, though I do use the Zero for it's great maneuverability and (kind of) warpower. It has great ability to climb. ^.^
Oh crap... I just realized that you wrote A6M... It was the G4M that was called flying cigars not the zero. My bad... The G4M really looks like a cigar.
how does it work?? it happend to me sometimes, and we were always wondering how it worked, because both planes hit each other with their wings and only one plane was damaged...
You are simply a Master!

@MrRallemulle well i play the console version but i do'nt think there is a difference between WOB and BOB

Brits were notorious for doing this, in the Battle of Britain RAF fighters that were out of ammo would ram into the tail or wings of an enemy bomber.

V2s were past the sound barrier anyways so they couldn't get even close enough for the guns to fire on them, let alone tip the fins out of control.

Yep true!
Most of them actually survived. One in particular, he regreted it, ad try to miss but ended up crashing..

I saw it on TV, he did a perfect hit, he chopped the whole cockpit off (more like sliced) they cockpit fell and the plane stalled and blew up.

They don't show lots of new episodes or episodes talking about the "enemy", I think.
They just show American pilots only. Kinda sucks. But still good.
xAcxDcx 3 years ago
thats true it always shows when us wins or when britian wins. Never when german wins or japan wins its always when allies win, so yea it sucks

Kamikaze stuff was rigging their planes with explosives and ramming into ships. Kamikaze was never used for air to air purposes
