There’s more than Normandy campaign… other factions got such canons… but still won’t help much.
Can we test it before we complain?

You never celebrate new year because the year has just begun?
Check mate, bro.
Why are you so negative about this?
Seems really interesting and something different for once. Or do you prefer AT rifle grenades?
It WOULD be fine if with the news, keo added something simple like “reworked damage models for planes” or “finally effective AA”.
With how things works AT THE MOMENT it justs means more bombs that cannot be countered.
Idea is indeed nice, but they implement new things BEFORE correcting mechanics flaws to make it worthwhile.
We will see I suppose. I’m just less and less hopeful with Enlisted (Personally)

5 people already mentionned that in the keo post.
Keo himself mentionned it on reddit as he play IL-2.
Several thread already talk about it.
We will make another one if needed but I think they got the message.
Be cheerfull it’s already the best FPS on the market (even if it’s more a problem of bad rival), and there is still a lot of idea, improvment, and bug to discuss.

I know people mentioned it a lot… I’m just puzzled by the fact that the devs KNOW about the issue, do nothing about it and release a new feature that won’t work properly because discussed bombers issues will still be a thing.
Not to mention, we can only have a grand total of 1 fighter per team in the air at any given time (that again, can hardly only tickle bombers at the moment)
Don’t get me wrong, the idea and concept itself is somewhat nice… They just add it too soon (again) in my opinion.
Also… more bombs? Didn’t the community rage there was too much of those mere months ago? Did everyone forgot so quickly how bad it was?

Agee, for me the AI should be their priority.
But I’m the kind of guy who is happy to recieve tie for christmass instead of nothing.

If you don’t want to fly or deal with the bombers. Stop complaining. For people like me who enjoy flying I will gladly take a fighter up and kill them all while you say nothing.

Ah yes my suggestion of recon planes, incendiary mortars, Katusha, or anti tank rocket strikes now means I support AT rifle grenades at level 35, great straw man
I’m saying people have legit concerns and you just straw man everyone and brush them off as “oh you dont like new stuff!?” Is incredibly idiotic. No one has said that

I seem to be one of the few excited for this new air formation update. I love being in the air as is, so more action in the skies is something I am looking forward to.
Well. The AA works against planes… but better against inf.
It does… but barely. And once the target marker appears, it’s already too late to shoot the bomber down, it’s already plunging for the drop. Maybe make the target marker appears sooner would help AA? 
I forgot to mention, the guy who keeps praising for this change to be added should see it yourself once it is added.
The game will be absolutely turned into The Blitz 2.0 or Like Battle of Britain.
You can’t even leave the spawn without a fucking single formation of bomber planes dropping hundred of bombs against the spawn. The Battlefield itself will be in ruins of thousand bombs being dropped from enemy bombers like we are in The Blitz in England 1941.
I absolutely DON’T understand, why people are praising for this update. Not to mention the AI also attempt to replicate the human behavior by using aimbots, which is bad enough for infantry but PLANE? Literally you would get sniped from 300meters from AI gunner using .50 BMG in 99% deadly accuracy, alongside with SHIT plane damage model, maybe it would take like hundred rounds of 20mm to shoot at the plane and it don’t do shit.

Oh might i suggest doing the same thing you do in ground RB in WT, use your eyes and brain
In WT, plane models aren’t broken as they are here, dumb dumb 
Your entire argument when i use : 
Gone, reduced to atoms
You’re making a lot of assumptions based on one of what will likely be multiple blogs on the coming update. Keofox already teased that we are getting gunners in our aircraft, so who knows what other changes and improvements they are making to air combat.
I understand that people play the game their own way, and some people play the game by making wild assumptions about how bad something is going to be without having tried it yet and posting about it on the internet; so you do you. As for me: I’m very excited at the possibilities
