Campaigns as Axis?
I know the campaigns take you from the Western front to the Eastern front and even some Italian missions, but will you be able to fly as the Axis forces, or is that only in multiplayer? I really liked how the PC Sturmovik games let you tackle the battles from both sides.

Axis will be played on multiplayer.

You can also use Axis planes in Instant Action, which is basically the quick mission builder from the PC Il2s.

unfortunately modern day politics will not allow for console games to depict "playing as teh evil nazis" in single player
but for some reason we are allowed to kill endless amounts of them |

Politically correct morons with pull will make sure the game gets boycotted. I wish we could.

Politically correct morons?
Why would anyone actually want to play a campaign as the Nazis? It is one thing to play as them as just another skin in a storyless multiplayer, but a campaign? There was nothing good about the Nazis, and their evil is too real to too many people to bring their side home as some sort of entertainment. It has nothing to do with politically correct, and everything to do with decency as a member of the human race. MAYA, you know I am not exactly poltically correct, but a campaign as the Nazis would disgust me, and I actually wouldn't support any game that would even attempt such a thing. |

Jeez, we aren't talking about a campaign where you directly helped Nazi's to kill Jews. What we are talking about is a set of missions as a German pilot. All the older PC Il2s have campaigns where you can play as Axis pilots.
Besides, you want to know which nation that you can play in campaign is guilty of worse war crimes than the Germans? Thats right, the Russians. Last edited by David603; 08-02-2009 at 09:42 PM. |

A campagin implies to me story, and there is no Nazi story deserving of being told from their side.
Now setting up single missions with generic goals in a Nazi plane, is totally different. |

So, by your standards, there is no campaign mode in Il2 Birds of Prey. Just a series of generic missions strung together with no background story.
And don't you understand, there is no such thing as clear cut black and white good vs evil in war, just shades of grey. At a guess, there won't be a mission where American or British bombers carpet bomb a city either. Last edited by David603; 08-02-2009 at 09:48 PM. |
