Well for missions with limited Ammo and such i can understand it, but if you say we cannot put limited ammo in the campaign missions because you need to kill to many targets, it doesent make sense if your engine breaks down after using it so much, In that mission you have to face ATLEAST 20 FW190D's.

Yea i dont know either, i'll just see if its in the full game and see if its only me. I might do something wrong never know, but up to now it doesnt feel like i did anything wrong.

So we'll see!
I enjoy the game anyway

not to mention the six 50cal. dont do anything to ground targets, ive seen old ww2 gun cam films were they blow up tanks and trains with out rockets maybe it would be good to mention to developers because i think that should be part of game

Unlimited fuel

But i think its just over use of WEP.

I remember at least 2 times that the engine stopped working. These were long missions. One battling the enemy planes, the other i was trying to fly as high as possible. That time the engine stopped at 7000m(?? i dont recall, seems very high, but i remember being surprised)

Anyway, i assumed that i simply had run out of fuel. But could be that 'oil pressure thingy'

Well I had my engine stopped in Dover but it was due to damages.

Was it in sim mode or another one ?

Shooting a tank with .50cals wouldn't do anything. It would do some damage to a train though, so maybe that should be modelled.

Must have been a lucky shot to take out a tank on a strafing run. The only way that would happen is if a round went through the hatch and hit some shells.

It really depends on the tank, you could chew up a Pzr Mk 3 pretty easily with 6 M2's but on a Tiger you'd be limited to chewing up the fuel tanks and exhaust (A tank with no fuel is almost as bad as a destroyed one anyway).

Regardless I did notice that your guns have no effect on ground targets/objects which was a confuing choice from the devs. I'd like to be able to destroy Flak guns and other unarmored ground targets instead of wasting rockets on them.

I blew up some AA with the machine gun on Tiger Hunt. Took a few sweeps but it went up.
