Started to play some simulation games lately, I just noticed something I ignored:
- Now in simulation mode you can use external views by pressing the D-PAD

The virtual cockpit is presently a necessity due to the absence of cockpits for some planes, but external views feels a bit more unrealistic.

Hopefully in future patches / DLC there will be an option to restrict the use of external views and the use of planes that don't have cockpits.

In the next patch most, if not all, planes are supposed to get cockpits.

Are you sure? As far as I'm aware, only the 109 and 190 were definitely getting 'pits in the immediate future, and there was no mention of them being part of the forthcoming patch.
I may be wrong, but I don't think there are any plans to provide pits for the bombers, or Italian fighters.

Dear Devs,

would there be any possibility of setting an approx start altitude level for Multiplayer Maps please...I'm thinking this would encourage more high altitude dog fighting, an aspect of your fine game which is slightly lacking in multiplayer...

also a strike variant where one side just takes fighters and racks up multiple tickets for each bomber kill, the bombing team can go with just bombers or maybe escorts too...



also dlc the low-level Romanian oil fields raid in B24s...real eye-candy potential

Cool...I'm so glad to hear this game's being supported as well as it is by the developers. It's gold-there's simply nothing to touch it on console, and I can see other developers being scared away by Il-2's near dominance of most aspects.
Initially, whilst playing the demo [then the game;] I had the same fear that I did when playing 'GTA 4' for the first time, namely; this is the death of this particular genre...how do they improve upon it?? But there's tons of room...if we don't have to wait for a sequel in order to get decent flak....I would have actually rated that as more important than fully dynamic damage.....the damage in this game is enough to impress anyone, making improvements a thing of dwindling returns.

You are correct 109 and maybe the 190 as Anton stated.
