How do you play: online or offline?

Guess you haven't played arma2 or even il2 sturmovik 1946

I'm speaking of Flight Sims here.

I am a regualr ArmA II player, and yes the AI with mods are very good, but they don't move at 300+ MPH and in the vertical either. ArmA's aircraft AI are the worst in any game.

'46's AIs are dumb as a box of rocks, or at higher settings totally omniscient, able to detect you without seeing you and able to magically break every time you get to your weapons convergance distance.

Depending on the day, i had before!
Sometimes it`s just fun cruising around and enjoy the AI in getting an easy kill!
The online experience is "slightly" different! You have to be much more concentrated but because of this it`s more fun....Especially when you`re progressing in flying!
At the begining i was everybodies victim right know i manage to escape successful from an dogfight and the next step (hopefully) will be an victory!
Sooooo, any volunteers?

I didn't play that much online with Il-2 , but I could easily if I wanted to...I've played cloD since the beginning but have yet to figure out how to get online to play...

What? Really?

In the main menu click on "Multiplayer" then "Client" menu and then double click on "ATAG's Axis vs Allies" or "Repka #4: - Dogfight-1" depending on which one has a lower "Ping" in the server list.

Use to play online with my son occasionally with Il2 1946 and original series but finding the time now when it suits us both became more and more difficult. Now we both have better broadband speeds maybe we should try again, wish we had speeds to match what Europe and America have. Our broadband speeds here for me (in New Zealand) are about 2mb download 900kb upload and that is on an evening with not heavy loads. As soon school holidays start speeds drop as more users get online.

Your speeds might be adequate actually. I still find people flying ATAG although I'm in Canberra. Also, there's an Australian server now: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=28114

Heads up Jimbop, thanks for that information.

99% of my CloD time offline so far having fun with the FMB. Once every 2 weeks I go online for an hour, just to see if there is something besides "random-fighter-vulching-another-random-fighter-pretending-to-be-the-Battle-of-Britain".
