Landing
 

Does anyone know if it will be possible to land anywhere like you could in the old IL2?

I want to be able to have to crash land. Bombers, fighters anything. If my number 3 engine is out in my B-24, I should be forced to try and crash land, or parachute out. hopefully we will be able too.

Yeah, I just hope its not like other games where you blow up as soon as you touch the ground.

I've noticed in some videos and new screenshots that the AI can bail out so I'm sure we can to.

I hope we can crash land too and also be able to see the damage model first hand.:-P

I haven't seen any pics of someone bailing out. If you find one post it here please.

I don't understand why you guys are so worked up over bailing out.

Essentially, its the same outcome of getting shot down, blown up, or crashed landing...

FAILED MISSION

It's not like you can go jogging back on foot to the airfield and jump in a new plan.

It will be interresting if we can landind anywere :)

But i am desappointed that we couldn't control turrets of the bombers in the first person :( This was one of the highlights of Il-2 on PC. (We can not have everything :) Gaijin did a very good job and Il-2 Birds of Prey will be the best aircraft games on console of all time ;) )

I hope that gaijin would integrate this function if it makes a successor to Birds of prey on console :)

I'm not getting worked up but it makes it more of a sim just a cool little feature. It's like laughing in your adversary's face.. haha you may have shot me down but you didn't kill me.

Thats when I turn around and shoot down your parachute...and laugh back at you, haha.

That would be sweet!:grin:
