Hello.

New XBOX player here, just got the game a few days ago and loving it.

Gamertag: 'fartskull'.

Location: UK.
Usually on: evenings into late night.
Skill level: total n00b...

Happy to play any mode, any difficulty (though leaning towards Sim as most preferred) just so long as I can find a game.

***

Also, I'm willing to help with getting unlocks, if assistance is reciprocated. No flames please, I'm usually dead against 'boosting', but being so late to the game combined with the (frankly terrible) way the online is set up, makes it practically impossible to get a 'legit' full hangar these days - managed to play a little online last night and actually getting into a match is the biggest bloody challenge - so I've got no problem with anyone grinding out a few extra aircraft/loadouts.

Personally, I'd like the B-17 just so I can intercept a formation of the beasts in a 109 or 190 in a custom Training mission and I was more than a little annoyed when I found I couldn't do that, even after completing the campaign and all the single missions. Bad game design, imo. The devs should've made all aircraft (eventually) available in singleplayer and kept the online unlock progression separate. Ah, well.

***

Anyway - Brits, Yanks, Canucks, anyone - shoot us a friend request if you need some extra cannon fodder to make up the numbers, cheers!

Default Hi everyone

I go by the nick of MaxOverkill. I'm on Xbox, Pacific Coast time. I used to fly Il Sturmovic 1946 on PC till I fried my Motherboard. Flew online at Hyperlobby which hosted loads of games ranging from arcade to realistic, European theater to Pacific. My preference for flying is full cockpit realism, no icons.

I've looked everywhere for a thread re: joysticks for use on xbox but I haven't found anything. I'm afraid Xbox doesn't support this feature?
