I don't know if it's just me but these missions that have a giant pancake cloud that just darkens everything is sort of a mood kill. This has been randomly on my mind lately so just curious if anyone else is of the same opinion.

If there’s any sort of external light by your flight sim setup spotting is just about impossible. I do enjoy the situational awareness you have to maintain in low cloud conditions; it’s fun and challenging, but I agree that it’s a bit overdone when every ww2 server has cloudy weather like this.

As it happens I've just returned to IL-2, after a while not doing flight sims at all. I kind of want the DCS warbirds to be better, but they're just...not. It also sorely lacks a reasonable variety of aircraft and always just ends up being fights between the same 2 or 3 late war fighters. I keep trying to force myself to learn the jets in DCS, but just not finding gameplay I like in it. I fly a Mig for a bit, and just think "this does not spark joy". The jets are too complicated and I don't find myself feeling cool when I fly them. I appreciate this is all very subjective, maybe if I found the right plane I'd get sucked into it and be able to enjoy the Cold War server. Like you, I hope to see a real future for the IL-2 franchise. It runs great in VR and with the sheer number of planes and maps, is the more complete experience. I think post-covid a lot of people have left the multiplayer flight sim scene, but IL-2 has really suffered. Combat Box is still going strong, always a good number of players online in the European timezones' evenings. I do love those low cloud cover maps where you can use weather to advantage. Anyway, good to see you in IL-2 again, hit me up some time.

Cold war jets would be your best bet for finding something that is fun to fly. Bvr is practically non existent so you still get dogfights and bfm. On Enigma's cold war server I really enjoy the viggen which is a ground strike focused aircraft, but it's super fast and can also do air to air. A lot of people (including myself) think it's one of the most fun planes to fly. Another option would be the f-86 which is technically inferior to most of the other planes on the server, but since things get crowded and chaotic a lot of the time, you'll be able to sneak a merge in on opponents who are focused on other targets. Once you're in bfm the plane is a beast and can out turn pretty much anything on there.

DSC WW2 is not in a great place. As you say, the limited plane set is a bummer. Also, I find the damage model really odd. Planes are often total bullet sponges, and you can empty all your ammo into them and they just keep flying. IL-2 is definitely the better WW2 experience. Regarding finding a jet to play, see if you can get the 2 week free trial of the Tomcat. It's by far my favourite plane in DCS. It feels like flying a warbird with massive engines and missiles. You actually have to treat it right to get the most out of it, quite unlike most of the other jets in DCS.

What I do is using track ir or open track dosn't matter you could probably even do it for vr bind 2 buttons for instant rear left and instant rear right snap adjust the speed of it so its not instant but fast enough and it makes the game much easier to play you just hit and hold the button and you can check your 6, release the button and your back to normal view very natural and instead of using pause I just have decent deadzones around my gunsight / middle position instead easier than having to press a button

I really would love to get back into IL-2 GB's! Does anyone know if this supports the Pimax Crystal's Dynamic Foveated Rendering? I can just about get 72fps on DCS in the F-14A/B and Viggen on Syria but I am CPU limited with my i9-12900K even though all the P-Cores are overclocked to 52. I'm wondering if 90fps would be possible in IL-2 with the DFR Eye Tracking. IL-2 GB's has always ran better in VR for me and other people who I've talked to. I think it could be that the textures or Polygons are VR friendly. Almost like a native VR game.

getting captured or killed equates to a loss of air frame and death in the in game scoreboard.. It is a kill for the attacker if he has inflicted some or more damage than others.. It also terminates your virtual life and streak.. Bailing over friendly territory does not show as in game death.. your virtual life and streaks remain intact.. The attacking pilot does get the kill..
