Sad that this thread wast closed the instant we figured out that the OP wasn't actually joking, and that kill streaks actually entered his mind as a good idea.
Sad, sad state we are in.

Don't like unrealistic servers? Just use fullreal servers. Simple. The "azzhats" you obviously despise are going to pay for IL2#3, not just the members of this forum (not even close). And some are going to get into the game enough to get the gear and enjoy it in its ultimate form.
For those who evidently cannot be bothered watching the video see below a rough transcript of Luthier commenting on new players in IL-2 and CoD at about 10.30 (relying on the translation btw). This is all I am talking about - the devs obviously see the need to get more people into the game and I applaud them. There just isn't going to be an IL-2#3 without this.
Int.: 'So let’s say I can’t fly at all. Can I get started easily?'
Luthier: 'Yes. We really care about this. We are always concerned with our older titles that newer players cannot get started easily and needed to invest a lot of time to get good and people flying without joysticks, flying with keyboard keys… We did have one or two IL-2 veterans who would fly online and consistently win with just keyboards.
'But we really tried to make the learning curve less steep in CoD, make it much more accessible. Can fly with your keyboard, with no joystick with relaxed realism, easy physics, everything complex turned off and just fly around and slowly enable complex options at your own pace and get more and more out of the game.'
