Hello guys, breaking my virginity here

Regarding automatic bailouts and hollywood explosions.

When I first played the demo, this was the biggest disappointment I suffered. I hated how your targets just explode all of a sudden and you dont even get to see the full scale of the incredible damage model on this franchise. This mainly applies to bombers, it took a lot longer for the engines to catch fire in 1946 and when you rarely did get it to catch fire it was a nice feeling because it didnt happen that often. In this it happens all the time. I have played this game just once on Arcade and Realistic to unlock Simulator, which is all I play on.

IMO the BEST thing about Il2 1946 was the damage model and it was just incredible to see your target fall apart after tagging it in different areas. I dont care about stupid hollywood explosions thats the biggest load of tosh I have heard. This silly feature impacts belly landings also and I love seeing my plane fall apart piece by piece after a failed (or successful) crash landing.

Im confident this can be amended in terms of competency. I used to play MS Combat Flight Sim for a little while and as far as I know that online was great. The player still got the kill if his enemy crashed after taking shots. If he got tagged by more than one attacker then maybe give the kill to the one who did most damage and an assist to the other or something. Im sure this can all be sussed out with some thought.

Please get rid of it, this is the only moan I have for the game.

Although some controller tweaks wouldnt go amiss (amend the looking around). This is way too important to be flawed in Simulator.

Despite this, I own the 360 version and I absolutely love it. I play on the controller, and have completed the campaign on simulator with minimum frustration, maybe this gives some insight to the controller moaners out there. No offence, I just dont find it a problem to play with the controller and maybe with some tolerance and determination you could also get used to it.

I am going to complete the single missions now on simulator and unlock planes, I dont want to rush through them because I want to play online but I refuse to without a fix to the intentional crashing and I suppose online can only get better in time.

Hope to see you guys online soon

Tough choice whether to post this in this thread or the suggestions one, but imo that one has gone downhill cant imagine the devs even bother looking at it
