Am I being Cheap...

[tango2delta]

I love it when players come in my room with bombers, I had a good time last night with some players from outback and the UK. You can learn tactics this way.
The FW-190D-9 or Ta-152 will make quick work of the bombers, come in from the sides, bottom and top.

Is the IL2 counted as a bomber in the game or a fighter?

To tell the truth, I do feel a bit embarrassed when I'm flying my IL2 and im getting raped from behind but receiving little damage. Especially when flying on Sim with King Jareth and Pedro the Goat, We usually have limited ammo and that makes it impossible for one person alone to down it before they run out of guns. I haven't unlocked the IL2-M and I'd feel super guilty flying backwards in a straight line just sitting in the gunners seat with the button pressed. Very little skill needed. I definitely wouldn't fly with friends and do it.

Fighter/Bomber-attack plane-Battle planes as anton says.

Coming from a Soviet Ace () I have to say no like the rest. It's not your fault that the developers made the Soviet planes a better opponent. And it's not your fault that you like the Soviet planes. So no, your not cheating by what they give you.

BLAH!!



Yeah your cheap and your cheating lol. Dont turn to the dark side...... stay with the good guys, fly for the RAF, not the dirty ruski's


All joking aside though, its not cheap or dirty. This is war, thats what happened. Its upto the guy who wants you dead to shoot you down without letting your gunner get a shot off. It can be done.

Yeah what he said, in bold of course. The rest I would just forget. A Yak-3 over a Hurricane... The Yak-3 will win any day

You also shouldn't feel bad for flying the very plane the game is centered around and named for. LOL

I didn't say its cheating. But come on, Of coarse it is cheap. Cheap doesn't mean the same as cheating. Flying an IL2N sitting in the back seat is likely to get you a load of kills of people who don't know not to come up behind you. Its EASY cheap killing. Dirty or cheating is a different matter.

How is it cheap?

if your rear gunner is shooting at me, then common knowledge says im not going to just stay their and let you destroy me!!! i will evade and come at you from a different angle.

So i dont think it is cheap. I think its your oppenent being a complete knob for staying their in the first place and crediting you with a comfortable kill.
