IL-2

[HammerDown]

Hey, which IL-2 should I get...I don't have any money and my friend has IL-2 Sturmovick....so I can get that for free....while I'll have to buy Forgotten Battles....what's the difference..which one is better?

well FB is the version that everyone plays, and it has more planes, maps, and a better campaign (not to mention me beloved Me-262) and plus, you need it to get aces... (if you decide to get FB, you might as well get the Gold Pack which comes with FB and aces for $40 if you have the dough--youll end up saving ten bucks if you get the Gold Pack btw...)

is it fairly easy to fly using keyboard cos i don have a joystick as yet

 

[Crazy]

Not to be negative, but....


Flying with the keyboard is the WORST way to fly, m8. I'd get a joystick, post-haste

 

[cheddar cheese]

ok, ive got 40 squids in my wallet, should be enough

 

[Crazy]

Might I suggest a Logitech Freedom 2.4? It's served me well, and is wireless to boot

 

[cheddar cheese]

cool, wireless good

might get that... trouble with this new amazon posting thing is its for amazon.com, which is in dollars, and the brits need amazon.co.uk really, i might mention that to horse

 

[Crazy]

I'm not sure, but I think you can simply get the ASIN number from the UK site, and post it. It SHOULD take you to amazon.co.uk. Of course, that leaves us Merrikans hanging...


Any ideas?

Yes, but then the New Zealanders will be complaining again about how they're "left out"

The best joystick is the Saitek X45. It have the joystick and a throttle. With they you can play the game without using the keyboard. Is great!
Is a little expensive, but you will got it for years .
