I think engine failure 5 out of 10 times might be a bit optimistic,if flying LW in 1944-45 from an occupied country.Sabotage was rife,so really we should have a problem maybe 8 or 9 times out of ten.
Oh, yes. And being an LW pilot, you should suffer from sleep deprivation, bad food and combat exhaustion. What’s more, red opponents should regularly outnumber you, 6 to 1 on average, and up to 30 to 1 on occasion...
Could be very fun!

Well if you don't agree with realism Kendo no need to trash the thread.Don't quite understand why you put in that last quote,from another thread? I admit I can't skip bomb now,whats the problem? Hopefully TD will make it an option,if not,someone else doubless will.
Is it a problem to request realism options here?
Pretty sure Oleg will incorporate a lot of this in SoW,so if DT can't/won't do it for il2 thats fine,we don't have long to wait.

sounds like a fun-killer to me. unless it is selectable options that only the "full-real" servers enable.

well the luft engine failure rate sounds a bit OTT, but not that dramatic considering the state of the luftwaffe in the final days.

can we also model petrol shortages so only half the serviceable planes can get airborne?

Now we have enforced realism for bombers,lets have some for the fighters as well:
You fly 45 minutes,and find your guns have jammed when you need them.
You are 100 KM's over the lines,when your oil pressure drops to zero,and your engine quits.
You take off,and your engine quits.
You get to high alt,then without warning your oxygen supply fails,and you die of ashyxiation.
Get rid of the refly button in dogfight servers.You die,or bail out,you have to leave the server and come back in,after losing all your precious points.
Sounds fair to me,after all,we are after realism.

Frankly with the limited time I have to fly online I'd be upset if I was flying for 45 minutes and found that my guns were jammed. Or any of the scenarios above you mentioned. If these options were available as a server setting then great.. but I wouldn't use them... ever. I don't do this for that kind of realism.. I do it for fun.. and to me that is not fun. That woule be even worse than flying for 45 minutes and getting taken out by flak.

To each his own...

I think this is something that really happened, but at max altitude when weapons froze.

But are bombers really that realistic now?

If you die close to enemy airport ,in a fighter, this would be great! I hate vulchers , if server allows it ok put it in option

Exactly Bearcat! One reason why the dictated bombfusing thing is so annoying as you have no option other than to skip 4.10 totally at the moment.
