Lets hear your positive 4.11 comments!!!

About the IL-4, I have noticed something else different about her. When you attack a formation of them, they drop ordnance and dogfight!!! I noticed green 7.62 tracers flying by my 190 and it was an IL-4 nose gunner. The IL-4 was almost vertical chasing me while he was firing. Has the same AI routine as the A-20, as that's another bird that will fight you if you attack it.

That's interesting. Did this happen on any of the single missions that came with 4.11? I designed those missions and played them dozens of times in testing. Never happened to me... I'm just wondering what circumstances there were when that happened!

@ IceFire - I played the torpedo mission first thing when I loaded 4.11! Had one of my best IL2 moments EVER, killed a 109 making a run of the squad leader from the IL-4 top turret, it was a sweet kill, fire ball and all that.

Anyway, I digress. The circumstances were as such; QB battle over the Kuban, I am flying an Fw-190D-9 with 4 total in my flight. Also 4x 109s, we were attacking 4x Yak-9s and 4x IL-4s. The IL-4 were armed with torpedoes. I made a standard atttack from the perch, got some good hits, and flew right through the formation. The #3 got hit bad, and this is when the #4 dropped his ords and engaged me. Throughout the entire fight, IL-4s were attempting to cover their wingmen like fighters do.

I will attempt to repeat this and get a Track or Fraps video.

@ Casper - sorry for that friend, just came to mind on hearing the IL-4 mentioned. If I come across any more strange behavior, it will go in the proper place.

As with 4.09 and 4.10, I'm truly amazed at what has been accomplished by Team Daidalos with this 'patch'. Again a new step has been taken to bring Il-2 to an even higher level of realism and fun. I won't mention all the high quality changes and new features I like in 4.11, it's too much.
To see this group of dedicated and professional people investing continuously so much in our hobby for free, is truly heartwarming.
Thanks Team Daidalos, you're a great bunch of people.

With kind regards,
Ikarushin

No. If you feel so, you simply must be a better shooter today.
