interesting dk,...on xbox.....i cant think of a CTA game i played where there werent ac with bombs. its what i am used to. because i was a late comer i didnt get a chance to set the rules of the game and so i basically joined in " the reindeer games". i am not a great shot, but one thing i can do is land a plane. so i select an ac that i know i can sit on the field ( depending upon the map selected ) .... basically...i am the one being bombed!!! with out decent top cover i get blown to smithereens most of the time. a life without bombs would be awesome! haha...
my pet peeves in cta are $#it#ead$ who land & win field... then sit their @$$es there after the have won it.....OR someone on the on the same team sitting there so the other team cannot lay claim to it. very cheesey IMO

I think your options are more open with guns only. If you get two opposition ac on the deck you can line them up and get really low and start your run and strafe them both. If you try that with bombs chances are you will get the first one but the blast will take you out at low level.
As for rockets, last time I used them on CTA I found they put my aim off. All that smoke I couldn't see the guy I was aiming at. I much prefer an orderly strafing run, lining the guys engine up and drilling it at close range |

hello friend italian ace!! totally agree with u,the only one good thing of the i153 and i16 is the turning speed radius. in 1 vs 1 it is easy i think to beat those 2 planes (but careful ,their rockets can be deadly)just do a head to head attacks all the time and never accept the dogfight.the 153 or 16 can't resist against a me109g6 ,fw190 or spit fire power. in a ""many players" games ,it is hard to win against them cause the players who use this planes have an advantage because of their turning radius...and many targets are in the sky for them.

That's a great picture Olife. Was it drawn by someone who plays BoP based on the game?
Edit: looking at the date on the website I see it's not. Some fab characatures on there. I love the HE111 |

i don't know exactly if it is based on the game,but i don't think cause this drawing seems to be of the year 2007 exept if it based on the il2 games series on pc,but i m not sure it is based on a video game. good post dk. |

yeah ctas without bombs are almost...liberating. It makes the game fairer and more fun imo! just played one - it was awesome!
kamikazing is actually pretty hard though - the plane doesn't cause any splash damage, and so you actually have to touch their plane. oh and btw, to avoid kamikazes you can just potter around at 30 kts (capture speed is 35 or less) and do circles and that way only pros can strafe you and nobody can kamikaze you. |

I paid money at the store for this game. And it came with all these planes so people will fly what they want. They earned it.

dont change the plane and launch the game immediately, if you are the last one to ready up.
dont play for victory. play for fun, fairness & the victory. |

360 n Ps3At the end of the day "you earned it". You're on some ones ass for a good few mins a good tussle only for them to get low drop bombs lower undercarridge for them to crash. How annoying is that dude/duddete, thats my question to you. But there are some epic points raised. 360 n Ps3. Also courtesy, if you clatter (crash, run into) someone a quick message containing sorry or apologies goes along way we have all gotten a lil to upclose and personal and have clipped wings .............. head ons are head ons if you aint going to back down or move neither im i........... and i dont expect the other guy to do the same! The above echos crashing while trying to bail either message or wait till the next lobby. Ive kicked myself from games trying to get the bail button Ps3 - Bombs in CTA's yawns o'clock very boring as is bombers in CTA's and dogfights. I know its only a game but seriously Could be the same on 360 and Ps3. The host could be trying to organise something historical so please tune in............... im aware there are various nationalities but look at the board in the lobby usually the best hint. so a small collection of H111's bf110 and 3/4 bf109's V's 3spits 2 hurri's and a I153. host aint going to start then changing to a B17 or Fw190 La5 ........... ect ect he still aint going to start lollol |
