Not caring about your virtual life always gets you shot down. Hardly "enormous pilot skills".

thats it, but if you overwhelmed by swarm of crazy kamikaze who don't think about anything else, except to gain kill by any cost, even smartest "safety" tactic is useless...

it is about 10 years of my online in il-2. last years i try to "live" with my virtual pilot, not only to gain kills. main tactic is - return to home alive, even without any kill.
and it is much more harder, than it is described in memuars of real ww2 pilots for a couple of reasons... the "lust for frag", "mindless ram", "pursuit of heavily wounded target"... e.t.c. you know all of it even better than me %)

frankly that's all lyrics. but let's return to the topic - in real combat we have very few opportunities to bail out in comparison of virtual simulator.

As per my earlier post (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...&postcount=124) it would be great if a jammed could could be simulated. Obviously, I am talking about future updates here .

Also, as has been mentioned previously, I hope that at some point the 'modern day sky diver pose' will be corrected and we'll eventually get something more like the 'rag doll effect' or pilots tucked up into a ball ... http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...0&postcount=62

btw in il-2 we have some effects which prevent us from instant bail out. for example if plane falls without wing and have huge spin moment you can press "eject" key untill it get damaged, but you'r pilot will not bails out.

but yes, jammed canopy it is nice hotspot. during ww2, in several armies and several types of planes, personal gun was the cure from such unluck.
