Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

Why are there Japanese and Russian planes in the battle of Britain?
Can someone please remove them and replace them with german planes relevant to the period.
It ruins the immersion and makes it difficult to spot the enemy.

Thank you and i look forward to reading your response.

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

Why has it been modded?
and more specifically why are Japanese planes flying in Europe?
and what can we do to change it?

I'm not even going to complain about the carriers can we at least get rid of the Japanese and Russian planes? I don't mind modding it so there are more planes or battleships but why Japanese Zeros? Its silly and I want a more sensible layout.

What do you think?

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

I guess tuia is the one you have to ask to change it.

Maybe they're on loan?

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

It's more like a "fun map" nowadays along with El Alamein. I like realism more too. Players are sadly bored of El Alamein after years (i can see why). But Britain is a great map even with default settings, idk why is it changed.

I loved also the other bombers which were available at BOB, the Heinkel HE-111, but EA modded it away with some GamePatch.

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

Is it possible to add battleships to Battle of Britian?
If so, do that, but having Japanese planes is really stupid.

I recall American planes in the battle of El Alamein but not something as outlandish as Japanese planes.
To be realistic it should actually be British vs Italian battle but hey.

I'm requesting Battle of Britain be either put back to normal or at least modded in a less outlandish and zany fashion.

Can modders edit the game any way they please? If so, I would like to make a number of suggestions in another post...

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

If you’re against Mitsubishi A6M’s, Aichi D3A’s and Yakovlev Yak-3’s in Battle of Britain, then why would you be in favour of battleships? They were not present there either

I myself wonder how they could possibly imagine people would fall in for a so-called Battle of Britain map featuring Mk.XIV Spitfires, while everyone knows there were only marks I and II available at the time.

That BoB mod is a masterpiece, except some minor details.

Do you know which game patch it was? Do you remember playing with these planes before?

There's no Heinkel He 111 from vanilla BF1942, only the Junkers Ju 88...

... So as Yakovlev Yak-3, only Yak-9.

Re: Japanese planes in the battle of Britain.

Hmm.. Could it have been the BFI Mod?

I just saw that BoB came with patch 1.45.

Perhaps and that could be, i had a custom BOB Coop or so.

I played only Single Player for years

But there can be an issue with other mods or mapnames. 

Btw. i guess this HE-111 Bombers i had in a Custom BOB Coop Map. If, then i have it somewhere on a PC here.

Yes.
There were battleships. Battleships being there is not really unrealistic and it a far better alternative than the ridiculous Japanese planes.
Now I want them taken out. Can we make this happen?

I wouldn't get hung up on it, been like this for quite some time now.
It's a game not a sim.

Whether you like it or not, that's the decision of the server admin to include such assets on that map. Just take it or leave it.

If you want to play a some sort of realistic gameplay and historically accurate Battle of Britain, then play some mods like BG42, XWW2 or FH!
