Random Encounters

[chris455]

One of my favorite QMB setups in ROF is to select "?" or "Random" for every aspect of the oppositiion in a mission. Number of enemy aircraft, type, skill level, all of it. It makes it more of a challenge, and the uncertainty factor adds to the immersion.

 

I employ the same method when flying SP in BoS- and up until recently, was quite pleased with the results. That is, until one of the recent flurry of updates, I noticed something.

 

When choosing "Random plane" when flying a 109 or a 190, I find myself up against- you guessed it- AI 109s and 190s. About 50% of the time. This is a complete immersion killer.

 

I don't believe I ever experienced this flying ROF- It seemed the sim "knew" I was flying Allied and logically deduced that I wanted a random enemy plane or planes to fly against- not my own stablemates trying to kill me.

 

I hope the devs note this and change it, or at least provide a switch in the mission settings to configure things more logically.
