How do I complete the destroy 4 aircraft objective easily? I’m pretty new to all campaigns except tunisia. Any tips?
Just spray a few bullets in their general direction. If they crash you get credited. e z
Edit: this is with infantry of course.
you either follow them, and get closer ( up to a 100 meters )
and you gun them down.
if the wings takes no damage, slightly aim towards the right or left to get your gun shooting at the pilot.
and if that does not even works, ( because of some airplanes damage models that are way more tanky that they should )
try to shoot at them from the side, or frontally. ( although i might suggest to avoid the latter as the opponent can do the same and might put you out of action ).
other tips that i can give, always use Flaps ( assigned to 1, 2 and 3 number buttons after the \ )
the first one are usually for the " high speed ", the second are for turning, and the third are for landing ( which you should never press or your flaps will collapse and will make you lose control of your airplane inevitably making you crash into the ground ).
i suggest you to try them in the pratice gamemode. and from there, learn how controlls works. that’s basically it.
positioning,
engaging from close position,
avoid/survive ( just don’t crash to their spinning airplane or you will lose your as well ).
Imo the best way is to use a fighter plane, prefferably with 20mm canons or bigger.
Position yourself behind enemy plane spawn (a bit scummy tactic but they will probably suicide anyway), close the distance to the minimum, aim for engines / pilot / any vital component, unload bullets until the desired effect is achieved.
Where can I find the enemy spawn point? I don’t know where it is on tunisia
It comes with experience.
I would like to tell you exact location, but it’s hard to describe an imaginary point flying in the air
- Get fighter
- Shoot enemy plane
- Ram enemy plane
It’s suprisingly uneffective actually
you can press M.
and it will show you an icon of 3 ammonutions.
those are usually the refill points. ( the same for tankers if you got the chance to see some ).
just like Voyo said, you will eventually learn them with time
or take your time, and learn them though " private " ( more like, empty ) custom matches.
there you will discover every refill point.
even if you capture or not a point, for airplanes don’t usually change.
i’d disagree.
i rammed so many IL2s, the survivors never got the chance to tells anyone.
cuz they are dead
i got one on camera ( hey mom, i’m famous : )
if they survived, how did they die?
I ramed and get ramed both by friendly and foe. Best result → yellow wing tip.
I’d say it’s quite underwhelming for a head on charge.
But maybe I miss something as vision is quite limited and I don’t have much time to examine my plane while in a dogfight
You need to get the right angle, and client-server desync is going to have a lot to do with it when you’re talking 2 planes both moving ~250kmh
I’ve clapped a lot of SB2Cs with my Re 2000 that way (fastest way to get back to the ground after your bomber kill), though a few I had to make multiple passes on.
IL2 <<< Kruppel Steel Deutchland Biplane
if they are strafing or passing close to you, shoot your auto weapon in their direction and forget about them.
once they crash, you might get credited with some xp and a plane kill.
i kill most of enemy planes this way right now . lol
I complete this one by clicking the icon next to it for another task
“get 60 flamethrower kills”
Or mortar lolol
get 10 melee kill in Normandy, with allied faction
There are alot that are just stupid and take wayyy too long
