S!

Read thru this thread and posting some thoughts. IL-2 is a great game, but not without flaws/bugs/features. Some have been known for ages, but yet to be corrected. Some are game engine limitations and the rest falls in whatever category. TD has taken over patching IL-2 and many of you are either longtime fans of IL-2, ex-IL-2 team members(SaqSoN?) etc. So you SHOULD have the insight how IL-2 works and how it has been all this time. So...

Maybe TD should consult some military EOD/Armament personnel to get their facts right and more info about bombs and/or armament. If you REALLY claim that a SC1000(or any bomb of that size regardless country) with effective 600kg+ of TNT blowing up has a range of less than 200m then really you know nothing about bombs or explosives in general. The bombs could use a check, ALL of them to make sure. Not only the Germans but ALL. Clear enough? Claiming things without checking and back-up, that is just empty words.

I can give an example. In an EOD excercise we blew up a charge of 2.5Kg consisting of PETN. The blast could be felt at 300m, a clear blast wave that moved clothing. And that was a mere 2.5Kg equal some 4.66kg of TNT. So try to imagine 600kg+ TNT exploding that near. You would be dead and things near you blown away. So please, check the bombs. Please?

Since day 1 in IL-2 the Russian guns have had smallest dispersion of ALL guns except the TIE twin lasers on I-16 or I-153 that have some of it. It was, and still is, childishly easy to kill a running Bf109 with a Yak-1b's 20mm cannon by sniping off as you need to take very little lead to get a hit even up to extreme ranges. This on FinskaViken1 server before the "mod episode" came up, squad flew as reds to show that the Bf109G-2 was not that superior after all

I would be extremely happy to see TD fixing bugs more first than adding a heap of new content, which can cause new bugs thus adding to the workload big enough already. You got the tools for it, use them.

Yea but DT if even would like to change something they first need to accept changes from 1C.

I really really doubt that they will ever get agreement from 1C ( Oleg M.) in such case which could affect any russian plane or weapon.

After above 10 years of these game, many discuss in many forums i have not any doubt that many things in game were balanced against historical realism.

Truly speaking who would like to fly early-mid war russian planes when they would be made with more historical and realistic performacne regarding fact that Il2 was primary designed for Russian market?
