In Il-2, the most fun comes in trying to bring back and land the aircraft you should have bailed out of long time ago.

I'm a old school gamer from the 1990s I bought the original il2 sturmovik computer game in 2001 that was top notch back then and I got the il2 1946 it's weird to think some of the kids playing this game now we're not even born when I bought it they are now 16 17 18 years old

[gregdallaway]

Hell yes, *finally* some more IL-2 from this channel.

[gizmomckopp]

5secs in: damn, I wish War Thunder had such nice clouds... Oh wait, years ago it actually had.

[alehop]

The best flight sim just because of the sheer number of mods alone, virtual cockpits be damned!

[mther_braned]

The Full Mission Builder for this is fantastic. You can crank out reasonably detailed missions in minutes and is reasonably flexible. Not as flexible as Il-2 GBs editor but its simplicity more then makes up for it. I use it more than the quick mission builder.

[sterilyte]

Well done! I wouldn't mind seeing more of this sort of thing. Historical missions and such, I mean.

[heroes]

Great to see this! Had 1946 in my collection since launch, think it's time for another go now 😎

[uncletimo]

Wait wait wait....

Torpedo bombers are NOT flying over land locked Russia?
What happened to War Thunda?

[ragingagent]

Such an under appreciated game, please do more videos of this

[CCFarewankers]

I've flown this mission both as IJN and USAAC. It is tremendously well done and very accurate. Right from the start, (Betty bombers bombing Hickam Field as you are taking off in a P40C) it never lets up until you are dead. I deadsticked out of ammo and fuel at Pearl after destroying 4 enemy aircraft in a very intense battle.

This game has a huge place in my heart. Remember getting it in 2007 thinking it wouldn't be able to run well on my shitty laptop (because nothing else did) then being over the moon when it did. Have put so many hours into it, it had no limits to the amount of stuff you could do. Now after having shifted to il2 bos, which is a great sim, but it just doesn't have anywhere near as much character or content. Still never managed to install CUP mod though, must've tried a silly number of times.

[connorbranscombe]

Magz you probably wont see this but I love that you manage to make an uneventful flight interesting with all the historical background info, it makes watching these videos way more fun then playing the game.

[namedropper]

I remember being a kid seeing videos of this game and badly wanting to play. Unfortunately growing up in a low income family we could never afford it. In 2014 I had finally saved up enough to buy it on steam. I still regularly play it. I don’t regret the hours I spent as a kid watching videos of it. Currently I’m making a unmodded dynamic campaign for the Singapore map.

I really hope Great Battles gets a Pacific theatre expansion

[NZTiger]

Great vid - enjoyed it .... I'm part of an online coop squad that creates missions / mods for this sim and we're using 4.09/UP-2.01 which is an older mod pack version compared to the most recent releases ... but it's perfect for what we do ... from the Battle of Britain through to jets in the Middle East .... enough choice from a still great sim to keep 10 - 15 guys happy each week :-)

[fenbeiduo]

Greeting! Thanks for dl and play my mission.Spent so many hours editing-check-re-edit, and sure lots fun.Just a shame that there is no proper ships in the oringal game.

[muttleyjones]

Magz, very nice opening scene, well chosen music too! You set a great mood but it was a little short if you don't mind me saying, as it was so well done I could have watched more of it. Almost cinematic!!

[shannonsteam]

That Farragut Class destroyer was the USS Monaghan, the Monaghan would be sunk in Halseys Typhoon (Typhoon Cobra)
