Whatever you are discusing here:

I SCORED MY FIRST ONLINEKILL TODAY!

Sat in a Hurricane, managed to shoot down 2 bf109 and 1 bf110! What a day!

Those were unexperienced pilots i guess, and i have to admit that I crashed into the first bf109 after it emergency-landed, but i am proud

Strange enough i have smoother performance online, so I hope some of you guys will see me at 6 o´clock high once in a while...

Good night

I can't seem to work up as much enthusiasm for Il-2 1946 anymore, that's for sure, I've been playing RoF a lot instead ("HERESY!" I hear you cry). The day that 1C crowbar a campaign engine like that into CloD I will be a happy man indeed, especially since CloD's SP and MP missions are by design interchangeable if I recall. Dynamic online campaigns in a cutting-edge WWII sim? Yes please! That and concentrate a lot of effort on the FMs and I will definitely be a convert for all time.

Good work Continu0! I think I've only shot down my brother and my old man so far, hahaha.

I hope the offline side improves a lot. While I'm not an offline player in the least, there are a large majority of players that are, and I want all of us to be satisfied with the sim. The more that like it, the more it will improve over time for all of us.

Agreed. I prefer the offline side of the sims I play to be good because I use the offline portion a lot to practise deflection shooting and systems management of the aircraft before I venture online in a frequent manner. Even when I had a lot of time I didn't play Il-2 online a lot really, so I think you can imagine that now I've started a job in online retail and with Christmas coming up I don't really have time for lengthy MP sorties at the moment, which is a shame!
In fact I'm beginning to live up to my avatar. Bloody Christmas.

I must be the worst pilot on CoD then cause I can't even beat the Hurri's driven by the AI

They've obviously got no stomachs because I get sick just watching them dance around in front of me when they're trying to evade. lol

S!

The Bf110C-7 was mine Continu0. Annoying was that my reargunner did NOTHING, just sat there with gun in transit position. And before I could take control was too late and took a swim in the Channel Nevertheless, a kill is a kill Grats on the first ones and let there be a lot more!

Krupi I suggested Rads both full open to keep things common to all who test and ensure the conditions are exactly the same for each test. Playing with some in between rad setting will compromise the validity of the comparison as no one else can exactely match any other setting. Keep things simple and constant. I proposed the test and stated the conditions. How about just flying it as suggested. Then repeat it using whatever Rad settings you want. document both.

The purpose of the test is to determine the difference between AUTO and MANUAL prop pitch... nothing else. The claim made by Krupi was that you could achieve at least 50Kmh better in MANUAL. Exact top speed is not important in this test just the difference (if any ) between AUTO and MANUAL.
