Yep sure do, 2.01 contains all the new spitfires etc, you need that first before you get the 2.04 patch...

fist one 2.01 is over 100 mb!!!! then 2.04 goes in at about 30mb.
Worthy tho....very worthy :)
Got 'em already just finished installing :). Can't wait to get shot down, but there are too many planes to choose from, i'll spend too much time deciding.
Planes....in order....to fly...in my opinion, which as you know is not very humble ;)
Lagg3 1941.....the first one. Heaven......easy to fly, easy to catch in a spin/stall, and a good turner....
Il-2...any of the first series....once again, easy to fly, but slower....harder to steer on the ground..the rudder is very delayed...you have to predict your joystick twisting. ;)
La 5 FN.....monster plane...monster.
Hurricane Mk2 C.....4 20mm canons, lots of good visibility, slow but stable. Quite easy to stall if your yank your stick, and very sensitive at slow speeds, but a god heavy old girl.
and then.....for a challenge....I-153 .....bi plane heaven, undercarriage does come up. Just watch it lift a wing on take off ;) and fly her along the runway...and then pull back.....WOOSH ...now THAT is lift...
turns like nothing else...ever.
I dono how it works in multiplayer yet, I guess I needs to do some testing and chatting on hyperlobby.
Yep fly the early stuff first otherwise you'll get in a spit mark 9 and you'll be disappointed with the early stuffs performance, turn rate and firepower ;)

fly on your own for a few hours man....
Set up a server just for you.....
you seen my Noobs Guide?
errr, nope, where is it? I just tried a couple of the new planes single player, I like the plane in the Japan quickstart mission where you attack an airfield, crap visibility though, can't remember the name. Can you fly a Gloucester Gladiator, I'm sure I saw one on one of the setup screenshots.
yes mate - it's in amongst the Axis aircraft, as it's the Swedish variant... look for the J8A in the flyable list... it is an absolute JOY to fly - don't bunt it over the top, the engine will stop, it's slow, but will get up to 3000m fairly handy and will out turn ANYTHING... I very very nearly got Hat in one of those.. he was flyin a MK IX Spit... then i did a silly and fell over... :(
yeah, the Gladiator is in there - hiding under the name J3 or something.
J8A i think...

Its cos the Finns used it when they were on the Germans side in WW2...theyd already brought them before the war.
RIGHT...noobs guide to setting up a server to fly on your own...it plays in Media Player....hit pause on each screen shot to see what I'm doing....follow it TO THE LETTER ...its ALL MOVIE...very very easy to follow....

S!
Oh, I ain't THAT much of a noob, I wasn't expecting learn to fly :). Although the vid was mightely impressive, and I particularly liked the bit 'twist your stick baby!' :)
Where the hell is this 2.04 patch anyway? it isn't on the Ubisoft IL2 Site :confused:
It isn't under the download section, it is on the homepage, near the bottom.
