I do own Birds of Steel on the Xbox360, it's a nice game considering it's a console but it lacks what I'm looking for. It's mostly dogfights and even if you can fly bombers and bomb in the battlefront mode it lacks the groups working together playing I had in the original IL-2.

I'm not seeking out games where I drop onto a server knowing no one jump into a bomber and fly away solo somewhere. I wan't to know some guys where we prepare a mission and go fly it together, as a group, working together.

You can know a few players and play on the dogfight servers together and help each other out occasionally but it's still mostly solo with friends.

Things seem to be different from when I played IL-2 back in the days. The forums where full of players like myself, there was a dedicated subforum for finding a group to play with. I came here expecting it to be the same but the lack of this kind of discussion scared me a little as I was thinking IL-2 wasn't like that anymore hence my first question on where to look for something like that.

I'm not asking about game recommendations here, I wan't to know what games/mods today currently have this kind of presence and I do know Birds of Steel doesn't.

You will unlikely be able to do this yourself unless you are quite tecnically minded.

So, I would suggest that you head over to the SEOW boards to check things out and find a squad that already has everything set up.

Where many campaigns are run: http://seowhq.net/seowhqforum/index.php
Sourceforge site for SEOW code: http://seow.sourceforge.net/
SEOW discussion boards: http://seowhq.net/seowforum/

If you're looking to join a squad I can recommend the guys (and gals) at =69.GIAP= (http://www.69giap.com/). I am not a member but have had significant dealings with them and their SEOW campaigns. I don't know what's required to get into the squad, but they are an exceptionally knowledgable group that will make you feel like a small (but happy!) fish in a big pond.

Good luck!
I was inclined to think this as well, however I looked around the SEOW forums and I couldn't actually find good evidence that this was very active as other then a mod in progress. No forum there was dedicated to helping people finding groups that actually used this. Should I just post on the forums there asking about groups? Are there any places where groups actually advertise themselves trying to recruit new people?
