Some quick “shotgun” questions. Is the Spad better than the Camel? Are there custom skins out there forFC planes? Do you use the default game play/ control settings? TIA
Everything looks so nice, and I bet it plays really well, but the Ai is still so god damn awful..... Wings over Flanders fields still seems to be the best option if one wants to have some WW1 fun in Single Player, with great AI
Yeah the Ai is dumb as rocks. I feel like it was much better in the original Il2 to be honest. I hope they overhaul it soon! as for WOFF... I would try it the only issue I have at the moment is the cost. I'll have to do more research into it. you are not the first person to suggest it to me. I will give it a look.
They are (even today, 9 months later) in pre-release. In modern games such as this; AI is one of the last things completed. I expect the AI to be receiving patches for at least another six months or year (from today).
God the enemy ai on this is, awfull. "I'm turning and I'm getting hit so ill keep turning in the same direction". Even the ai on the very first il2 game from way back was better, to say nothing about how good it was in il2 forgotten battles.
The AI has seen significant improvements in Great Battles since this video was uploaded 2 years ago. Every patch includes AI improvements now which is nice :) Also, Unlike the older IL-2 games the AI in IL-2 Great Battles doesn't cheat. They are limited by everything the player is.
@@michaelstubbings8677 True, but we didn't see much tightening of turns in this video. The AI either kept flying more or less straight while being shot at, or kept its leisurely wide turn.
"Landings need a little work." Had to pause the video for that one!
@ 6:45 - Looked like a pretty standard first-time Camel landing to me! :-)
Yes, I was going for authenticity... Of course! ;)
why does everyone just seem to fly endlessly in circles? Just waiting to die, not making any attempt to win the fight.
exactly
Wow that was the best landing I ever seen you do yet. 😁

that DrI wasn't trying to shoot Anybody down from the flight....just let him limp home
10:35 "No mercy. I'll try to be nice."
👍
6:51 rip unknown British pilot
Beagle approved :)
The name of the sight is Aldis not Adlis, and it's commonly pronounced all-dis.
What is the little propeller on the strut for? airspeed measuring?
Yeah I am pretty sure that is what it if for!
try to shoot a 109 or 190 down in it
Is a flat turn all the AI knows how to do?
No. They also know how to take off and land! Lmao
They ai is a little weak atm. However the devs seem to be improving it more and more each patch
Might help your gunnery if you line your eyes up with the actual sites.
Yeah I noticed I wasn't using it after I recorded the video haha. I have learned from that mistake
What's the ribbon for
The ribbon is for the flight leader.... Kill him first........
Where is the GRASS field ? Wrong type runway...
They flying circus map has not been released yet. Therfore I am using one of the great battles maps.

Tighteneing the turn is the best defence. the transition from one turn to the next is a vulnerable time
