reef 3 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hey guys. A long time ago, 7 years i think, i picked up Il-2 Sturmovik and was probably my first try at PC flying. For whatever reason i never went beyond Forgotten Battles. I just picked up Il-2 1946 as it was cheap and has great reviews and well.....i'm a combat pilot again i'm very much looking forward to BoB so the practice will be useful. Heres just 1 shot from my first mission to bomb Pearl Harbour. Its only a quick lighting edit and obviously a 7 year old sim is not going to look as nice as FSX. It was a good mission where i dropped my payload portside of a big fat battleship hitting nothing but fish. I didn't get shot down though....no fighters and no flak...i was in the first wave cheers... steve Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Great Shot Steve, I picked up up Pacific Fighters the other day for a fiver PC world had the price wrong it should have been 9.99! Did you get your IL-2 1946 at Game? Was it 14.99? It was out of stock last Saturday at my local store :yes: popping back next Saturday, might phone first! Must post some shots of PF. Thanks again Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted January 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Oooo who else has Il-2 ?? Maybe a "Mutleys' Il-2 Sturmovik Monthly Online Battle" or "MISMOB" England versus Foreign Folk (Thats Welsh too :rofl ) The Welshman, Yank and the Greek versus Blighty lol. Anyhoo, thanks for the comment, i'm glad you liked it....now post yours! steve DOH ! P.S. yes i got it from Game for 14:99. I ordered it online and 2 days later i'm playing it. Thats faster than and cheaper than Play.com. Also if you spend Link to post Share on other sites
Martyn 9 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I nicked a copy of IL2:1946 from work a while ago and love it. Its bloody hard to get a good shot on the enemy but it has great flight dynamics(in some respects, better than FSX) and the damage effects are excellent Link to post Share on other sites
wisemanp 0 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Wow, VERY good shot! Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 reef, i'm up for a bit of flying about in IL2. i've got all titles through to IL2:FB:AEP... didnt bother with Pacific Fighters of '46. I have it on good word however that Storm Of War from 1C:Maddox and co. should be the dogs danglies, better scenery than FSX some say... Link to post Share on other sites
