Either nerf the IL2s Armor or at least its flying characteristics along with speed

Ive said it many times and will say it many times more. The IL2 needs some damn work on.
This also applies to the BF110 flying model for turn rates. Those planes are far to agile in my opinion for what they carry. But this is now another complaint and showcase why.

Dont mind my flying and shooting. Its 6 o clock in the morning and i just woke up.
Instead watch the damn turn ratio that tank of a plane does and how much it damn tanks and still can be operational. Ive seen worse then this but its an full battle with one IL2 that both can turn on a dime, have really good speed (dont believe me i have an video of that to with me running away at 430 and still its not that far away along with climbing, and tank like no tomorrow.

This is an full star fighter to add for those who dont know. But yes my flying could been bit better :wink:

So with this picture look how that plane that can tank this much can turn on an dime, take a lot of shots both to tail and wings as well as engine and still perform or even fly for that matter
If this was one of the German planes that shit where going down just on the first engagement with no problem what so ever if not def on the second! So you call this balanced ? An top level 32 fighter contra an lvl 7 Hybrid ground attack plane ? Think again DF and all you biased Russian players

Theres a reason why Russia players always takes out IL2 most of the times instead of the bombers and this is why. And its also because that damn thing only cost the smallest amount to upgrade.
I would have done that sht to and kept it

IL2 and BF110 are bugged currently. They take no damage. (Moscow ones, not normandy or berlin)

In WT - with a BF109F1 i destroyed an IL2 maybe with 10 20mm shots. We were heading right for each other. And no i didnt kill the pilot. Its wings were ripped off, set on fire. Meanwhile in enlisted go ti resupply point 10 times before the guy piloting it gets annoyed at flying and crashes

you’re using takeoff/landing flaps in combat this make you go slower but make you also extremely less agile, shooting without a clear shoot (wasting ammo), not managing the speed optimaly, and once again shooting center mass not aiming at any weakspot

no its the only way to be able to out turn it! and i hit his wings, engine and tail many times. I know that you also can aim at the wings where the wheels are

But this is not about weakspots and such but how that thing can tank like no other planes out there at lvl7 and fly for that matter. Its easy mode

Maybe it’s a problem with the 109 in not dealing enough damage, i usually play with IL2 and i got shot down from the ground numerous times. But i could also be wrong, Idon’t have the 109 in moscow yet

Sometimes i can shoot it down on the first run after 200 15mm bullets (not all hit ofc but lets say around 80%) but its usually when getting lucky crit on it or i hit the pilot. Dont mind its armor in a way if it only where flying like it had it ^^ Especially carrying all those rockets, bombs and 20mm :wink:

I remember i had the same problem once when i was flying the russian biplane and i had to go head to head with a 109. Shot him with everything i had, includind rockets… the bugger just kept on flying, completely unphased, not even trying to avoid me. Also not to mention that i couldn’t keep up with him. Only thing i could do was to go straight at him trying to crash into him face on.

Utter drivel - I just shot down a couple of 110’s with a Yak 1, and got killed in a IUl-2 by a 109.

You CAN be killed of course. But they are bugged. If you boot up WT and take an BF109 the 20mm will destroy the IL2 in seconds

well the 20 mm isn’t the same thing as a 15mm MG 151.

basically the same. I had the same problem with the 20mm as i did with 15. But the 20 you had to be rly careful with since you only had 60 rounds which made it much harder cause you also have to stalk and turn if it was an rly good pilot they try to trap your speed asw along with avoiding shots. And i say it again since the IL2 is much better glider then the fighters, that thing can almost stand still and still turn or climb like nothing is there

And the MG151/20 (20mm) also can barely damage the IL2. Boot up WT and see for yourself how ridiculous the IL2 is currently.

Last i tried in WT IL2 is a glass cannon
It could rip apart anything IF it got its guns o target, however its low speed, unimpressive agility and relative fragility made that hard
In enlisted planes seem much tankier, but slower and less agile

Wow look another nerf the allies post. What a surprise. Do tell us what should be nerfed from the Axis or is it only “allies OP!”

wow what a gamer move

So what should be nerfed from the Axis? Ill wait

If we go in to moscow campaign overall ? Bf110 perhaps with its turnrate. The GBT90 is just on the edge but think its fair overall since it isnt that OP, but pretty strong. Maybe slight more on the MG39 but i tried the DP the other day and that thing is strong AF. Not the same fire rate but man it slaps to. MKB is fine and not that OP compared to the campaign overal since Russia has their toys even if MKB is rly strong BB gun

Long way for you to say “nothing”

had to think for some time ofc. Since balancing is an delicate matter to stay objective, since with some people in here that objective thinking goes out the window when pride and greed is involved. But theres another factor to ofc, they arent experiencing it since they have not tried it, so how could they know

Yeah… asasuming you have the gunpods - in Enlisted you don’t - you have 1 cannon and 2 MG’s

Get over it or git gud.
