Aircraft that would be nice to have in IL-2 BOP
Now here's the chance for the WW 2 aircraft buffs to make a wish list for what they'd like to see in DLC additions for IL-2 BOP in future.
The rule is that it has to consist of aircraft that were involved in the European airwar and was actually in service, not prototypes or variants that never made it into production. My wish list is as follows: Finnish Air Force. Fokker D-21 Brewster B-239 Buffalo Curtis P-36 Hawk Fiat G-50 Gloster J-8A Gladiator (bi-plane) Bristol Bulldog (bi-plane) Moraine-Saulnier Ms-406 Bristol Blenhiem II Soviet Airforce. LaGG-1 LaGG-3 Mig-1 Mig-3 I-18 P-39 P-40 Pe-2 Pe-8 SB-2 RAF Boulton-Paul Defiant Hawker Typhoon Hawker Tempest II Hawker Tempest IV Bristol Blenhiem IV with gun pack. Bristol Beaufighter De Haviland Mosquito Luftwaffe. Fw-189 Hs-123 (bi-plane) Hs-129 Bf-210 Bf-210 with 50 mm. FlaK gun in the nose Bf-410 Bf-410 with 50mm. FlaK gun in the nose. Ju-88 Ju-188 USAAF P-38 J Lightning B-24 Liberator B-25 Mitchell B-26 Marauder Italian Macci MC-202 with 20mm, gun pods Macci MC-204 Fiat G-50 Fiat CR-42 (bi-plane) A lot of the above are already in other IL-2 titles, a few aren't but would make the game a bit more interesting. As for future DLC maps, Normandy, Lenningrad and Moscow would make intreesting backdrops to fly over. |
Any extra planes would be nice really...
but just for shuts n giggles: Halifax Wellington You missed a biggie: The Lanc as for maps/levels London at night, blitz time! (ok I have hardly done any of the game so maybe that's in there) |
London at night during the Blitz.... that would mean the need for the HUrricane II C with cannons in nightfighter guise, an all black Defiant "Steel Bat" (as the Luftwaffe called it), Beaufighter and Blenhiem IV night fighters.
Musn't forget Ju-88 night fighters and Luftwaffe night fighter variants. As for the Welligton, would other players complain that it is next to impossible to shoot down?? "Aw c'mon.... how can it still fly without most of one wing and no tail, eh??" |
As many people that already complain about the B-17? You want the Lancaster?
The lancaster is far superior to the B-17. It has like a 40,000 pound payload I think. Imagine that thing in strike. |
Ive always said Avro Lancaster god she's a beauty
@mattmanB182: She could carry a payload of 22,000 lbs. but ofcourse they had to make modifications to her to fit it in. But yes she could carry the heaviest weapons in her time ;) |

maybe a bigger spread on targets in strike if that's an issue, I'd love to see a bombing raid of 3+ Lancaster turn some German factories into dust! |

Bought it the other day but my graphics card died so won't be able to play it |

I just flew the warhawk in Targetware beta today, it's a great little plane, maneuvers well even on targetware's unforgiving model. The p-39 is good too. I don't like the p-38 at all.
The Beaufighter is useless except as an attack plane but it should be in the game too ok for more heavy bombers to be added, but they should be either banned or very limited from strike mode. If a heavy bomber gets to start that close to the target, it's pretty much game over already |

What would really be cool would be....

@DoraNine: Not sure if you've read it, but some other aircraft than just the P51 will be adjusted. |
How about a multiplayer strike map AT NIGHT, with DLC being the missions and the avro lancaster and de havilland mosquito.
The idea is the mosquito is the pathfinder and has to use flares etc to light up the target, and the lanc can come in and drop all its ordanance on the target. In their we have some BF110 night fighters :D That would be fun. This aside i would like the following planes - RAF Avro Lancaster De havilland mosquito Hawker Hurricane MkIIc Hawker typhoon/tempest (either i dont mind) Gloucester gladiator (why not?) USAF B25 Mitchell B24 Liberator F4U Corsair P38 Lightening(For everyone else, not me i dont like it) LUFTWAFFE JU88 JU87 (fitted with flak 18) Dornier DO-17 Also panzer - this thread has already been done to death on here mate. Not sure why were doing it again :P |
As everyone know, I like the Yak-15... Please guys put this beast in the game whit a new add-on...

Nein Meine Herren. I'd Rather stick to the German Luftwaffe. ( We have Fantastic Music. And Planes.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNVVoH9-QH0 |
I would like the Saturn V please.

Just imagine the sheer suprise on peoples faces online when they see a Saturn 5 rocket tailgating them :grin: |
Wow a P-38 Lightning would be so fun in this game.
I think it gets my top vote! The thing had a nullified gyroscopic effect due to the counter-rotating props. In realistic/sim, you'd never have to trim ailerons/rudder and if you were pulling up REAL hard (with level wings, albeit), you'd never enter an accelerated stall. Plus stall turns in sim, you'd easily be able to pull off with no scare of spinning out of control due to torque. |

Hey, what about the French Caudron C. 714!? That's a weird yet cool plane. Very strange design.

oh the Ecranoplan meerly for its wow factor, i dont care if it doesnt fly or has no guns! |

hello
yes ,the c714(caudron-renault c714 cyclone)is a french plane this plane was not very good :a lot of crash because of technicals problems and french air force forbid the fly of all the c714 but with the war the c714s go to fight with the poland pilots during the battle of france(figther group1/145 "varsovie") the c714 had 4 machine-guns mac of 7,5 mm max speed at 5000 meters:460kms/hours i thinks pilots were very courageous to fly in this plane!!!!! |
What about about the Gloster Meteor?
|
I want the C-47 Skytrain. God, i want that thing.
I was the aircraft ''with the Thousand names'' and i carried everything from Paratroopers, Cargo, and everything in between. It's Fast, I'ts damn good looking, and It's Famous!! http://img.over-blog.com/567x277/0/3...-1-copie-2.jpg http://www.af.mil/shared/media/photo...-9082S-910.jpg She's a Babe... :-P |
Ive flown in a C47 DAKOTA, and i must admit...
it was superb, yet scary at the same time!! loved every minute of it. A beautiful plane. |
How bout A Hawker Sea Fury? seen 1 at our local airshow years ago & it was a monster
|
I would like to see the gunpods of the 109 G6 and K4 become optional.
Been playing some Il-2 PC again, and I just love the G6 and its 30mm nosecannon. In BOP however, with the added gunpods, the plane flies slow and ungentle. The ability to remove the gunpods seems easy to me (but I have no idea about developing). For me it would add two more planes in a heartbeat. (after all that needs to be done is fix the acceleration of the 109's and the damage of the F-4 , G-2 armament :P). sigh, getting soooo tired of waiting for patch and/or DLC |

Anyways, I'd like to add, the apart from the gunpods... the planes I would like to see in BOP, are the ones already in there, but then with the correct performance. I think the most popular planes are in BOP now, but one third is actually flyable/ has the performance it should have. Like the FW190, like to fly that one, so I want to see that one in BOP. It is there, but apart from the visual model, it has nothing to do with a FW190. same go's for bf109's.. they cant outrun/outclimb anything. P51's, Mc202, P47, Ta. Just fixing their performance would add 12 planes you could then use to COMPETE in a dogfight. Im getting into the 109's lately (f4, G2, G10), just not to be flying the mainstream planes all the time (and they look nice :)). But after using the G-10, and then testing in training, i found out it flies exactly as fast as a spitfire, and the G-2 (it should have about 30kp/h more, and a 30mm nosecannon instead of 20mm). Knowing that and that the G-10 turns worse than the G-2 and spit.this takes away any reason you would have to pick it. ^^ this kind of go's for all 109's. they are nerfed so badly, that there is no real reason to pick them other then 'i like the looks'. (thus scraping 5 planes of the plane list) |
