Default Dissapointment

A BOB mission including birds, that never saw action in the BOB, at least that is the impression I get out of the info's available on the BOP Homepage.

Bf-109F4
Hurricane MKII
spitfire MKII

What's the point of making it more realistic with smashing graphics, just to drop it all from a historic point of view. But let the kiddies have their fun, while we continue to play with the real thing

The Bf109E3 and Bf110C feature in many screenshots, and the Spitfire IIb and Hurricane IIb are used purely to balance firepower.

For my part there is no need to balance anything, as Historical accuracy was the strong point of Il2, until the freaky missions and planes in 1946

Pompous douchyness is not necessary.

Maybe you should search through the forum for your answers instead of letting your 'impressions' do the thread starting.

Yes maybe I should, but after reading some of the posts here, I have decided not to search further through the forum.

NB: as I wrote in my first post, my 'impressions' relate to the website of Birds of Prey, and not to this forum.

Actually I like my games balanced especially on-line. I play video games for fun, not to get constantly pwned because I don't have a plane as good as my opponent, because that was historically accurate.

It should be about my and my opponents skill, not the planes themselves. That's why games should be played on a level field or they simply are not fun for one team. Not being fun for one team means you will sit endlessly in lobbies waiting for noobs that don't realise they have been handicapped from the start who then quit as as the realise their planes don't stand a chance. No fun.

just when I think this forum has reached its limit of pedantry someone else rocks up...

If people want the real thing then go stop kidding yourself and go take flight lessons in a real plane...

ps Yossarian is spot on about game balance...just look at the utterly endless bitching about martyrdom/juggernaut whatever in Cod4...
