I haven't been hurt by FLAK yet. Of course, I've only played the demo and only had a light pepering of flak in the second mission.

The flak batteries arn't the most accurate in the game but I have been hit once or twice. Last night flying the P51D in external view I got clipped on the left wing and the musting banked sharply. Pretty sure the flak caused it but it may have been the twitchy flight model

I asked this question to Anton and his reply was "It is a major part of campaign" and could hurt you but I have not been hurt by it either.

Not in Arcade mode, but I have been shot down by AAA (or FLAK if you prefer the german term) ONCE. It was on realistic setting in one of the Korsun-Cherkassy missions. Direct hit - WHAM! Blew me and my plane to pieces...

I had my entire right wing blown off last night in one of the Sicily missions. Needless to say, I was very suprised. It was cool though.

First time I played it in the demo on simulator, I was hit by flak and it killed by engine only a couple hundred meters above the ground, so I died.

BTW, I changed the thread title to "FLAK", which is the correct term.

It always lands right under me, so it's like a narrow escape. Never been hit for real though!

As for all WWII games, bf1943 has deadly Flack fire, but maybe that's because the players can control it?

I've received minor damage. The thing to remember is that FLAK was never that accurate, especially against a maneuvering fighter, so don't think it's any less realistic if you don't get hit.

Maybe the Flak gunners were just having an off day?:rolleyes:
