that would actually be kinda cool. where you have to take out targets before you land....like all the AA emplacements. would put an interesting spin to it.

Oh no... I just had a horrible thought.
If the B-17 is a nuisance to kill in the current il-2, a B-29 (if they include it) is just going to be hell. Especially since most of the U.S. planes only had brownings (if I remember right!). I'm going to go pray for killable gunners now...

"If the sequel does have pacific missions, how cool would it be if they came up with a multiplayer mode called something like island capture, which would be a hybrid between strike and capture the airfield. The Team A would be fly off carriers to capture enemy airfields on the island, Team B would be playing strike and scoring points by getting hits and sinking the carrier force launching Team A. Gives the opportunity for epic battles defending the carrier group while also trying to capture an airfield. Could lead to some hectic and interesting gameplay." And I agree with all, the a pacific centric game would detract from many other great air battles, so if they do a mixture of theaters, I think it would be great. And even if it is mostly based in the pacific, our british favorites like the Spitfire, Mosquito, Beaufighter, Typhoon (etc.) fought in all theaters of war from India, Australia and NZ. So they shouldn't be neglected (at least we should hope not).

The Pacific theatre has some good air battles that could be used, but like someone has already said... it could get boring quite quick, with a rather limited amount to to. Theirs only so much jungle you can fly over or ships you can attack. Dont get me wrong, id buy a pacific sequel, i love IL2, but id much much rather prefer it to stick to Europe/Africa.
Rather than the traditional set up though which looks good but is a bit far fetched sometimes, such as "fly here in a squad of 4 planes and take out half the Luftwaffe alone", they should in my personnal opinion make the sequel a sequence of different missions that are true to life, things that we remember, things we think about and go "wow" thats incredible. For example - 1 mission that could take ages to complete, the Dambusters. A true to life and iconic mission that involves the mighty lanc be flown at a ridiculous height and like a medium bomber. Though please i beg if you do this... dont Go OTT and add 50 FW190's etc. Just leave it true to life, do the guys that took part justice, make them proud. The way it was, was hard enough. Or arrange to have a flight of P51's and you have to rendevouz with some B17's somewhere and then escort them to and from a target, but take heavy flak into account etc. Or have some pathfinder missions in the mosquito, flying at night in the dark, solo, ahead of the main force and mark the target for them, if not then how about some heavily armed mossies doing some shipping strikes? Or flying a swordfish against the Bismark, or the italian fleet at taranto? The possibilities are endless. As it is, IL2 is incredible and looks superb, better than every other flying game on console. But behind all that after playing for so long.... i feel that the missions are jsut the same as on any other flying game.... far fethed sometimes, Just IL2 takes away the "unlocked advanced homing rockets" or any other stupid special weapon etc that other flying games offer. As for MP.... The ability to free flight, including landing/take off and fuel management is a must for me. Free flying is superb. Some form of mission editor would be pretty good, but co op would be what im aiming at. Last edited by FOZ_1983; 04-04-2011 at 05:51 PM.

Can't believe no one has said this how about if a plane goes down the last person to get a hit on said plane gets the kill no more crashes unless your plane hits the ground without ever being damaged also no one is awarded the kill for collisions that is a crash you both die

the clan/party type idea is good if the game is busy enough or else it will end up unfair for other players if it goes the same way as the current BOP, you will have an elite squd picking off "average" players, if that happens people will leave/quit games or stop playin altogether, you can get away with that kind of structure on FPS games Ie cod, Bc2 ect ect as there are over 300,000 online plus at times. the ability to kick players if you're the host is also a grat idea imo  Im not overly a fan of pacific games as i find the scenery gets a tad tedious, but there is no doubt there were some massive battles ect ect so im not ignorant that way. but it would be interesting .................. just to get another game

Another nice touch would be left and right brakes and folding wings, it would make taxiing easier, and when I get bored of getting shot down, I can fold the wings and drive a ridiculously powerful tricycle up and down the runways!
