The AI avoids fights?

I was playing the 2nd mission on realistic, and the germany's didnt wanna fight.

I had to fly the 1km and engage them, But the final guy Just flew around and Made little attempt to shot me down. Anyone alittle worried?

Petty cowards! Arrrgh!

They've always seemed quite aggressive to me (see here)

I always see them chasing friendlies. I get quite a lot of kills by picking them off the six of other P-51's etc.

I think they perhaps toned it down a bit though, as there are generally quite a few enemy fighters and I'm not that good; I should be shot to pieces! Their gunnery skills are rubbish!
And my wingman is very observant - he ALWAYS tells me if there's one on my six! Damn good eyesight that boy... lol

LOL. Yes but they do seem to be lousy shots, all this time I've been playing the demo and engaging like three of them at once, they've only shot be down one time ( I remember because I was quite surprised).

I find they're pretty quick in the second mission though though which makes for a great chase right over the trees. Best feeling in the world when your about to stall but just manage to get enough shots in the enemy so that he plummets through the undergrowth and you pull up just in time.

Every time I see that picture all I can think of is wep! wep!, I've never had that many on my six.

It depends the 190s are pretty aggressive, but they more often tangle with my wingmen then come after me directly....But they will bounce your ass like the did to me. The entire flight of them coming in a single line, all shooting.
