Il2 is one of those games that you need to practice. Practice, Practice, Practice. And just when you think you may just be ok, the AI, or a teammate, will RAM into you, or pop a 20mm through your head and make you cry. It is an awesome game. Do yourself a favour, save some moola and get a HOTAS and at least TrackIR. the difference will blow your mind

This is the preeminent WW2 combat flight simulator. If coming from War Thunder, and you’re considering this, this is what you have been missing out on in terms of fidelity. This title, ‘Battle of Stalingrad,’ is the foundational game in the Great Battles series. Access to other campaigns, such as ‘Battle of Normandy,’ is locked unless you have this base game. The maps are hugely expansive and there are a variety of campaigns/scenarios to choose from if you purchase those separately. The in-built career mode is excellent (although sometimes quite repetitive) and allows you to choose from a variety of historical Allied and Axis squadrons across different theatres (though only Stalingrad in this game alone). Pacing is optional - you can choose to fly every day of the campaign or jump between intermittent periods. One appalling oversight, however, is that if you die and accidentally choose to leave the mission instead of replaying it, the career mode for that profile/pilot ends and everything you’ve done is for nothing. It’s a serious issue that needs to be corrected, and in the meantime, vigilance of this issue is required on mission end menus. The AI is superb and makes use of the characteristics of their aircraft accurately, the flight modelling is very well done. I would say, however, that the AI does not trim for level flight and instead ‘throttle-jockeys’ which is a major thumbs down on the AI side of things. Overall, this game is great in single player. Multiplayer does exist, but servers are mostly joined on the weekends/during holiday seasons. Buy this game (and all its DLC) on sale. During the seasonal sales you can get everything for around £250 - £300. This game is a blast to play. However, there is a steep learning curve and every aircraft has its own flight modelling that you must be attentive to. If you want WW2 combat flight sim done properly, accurately, and realistically, then you have come to the right place.
