Anyone have it ?.

Got it cheap from Game and it arrived this morning- I just wanted something shiny to unwrap, you know how it is fellas.

I had avoided it due to throwing Rowans BOB out of the window a few years ago in complete frustration and this effectively being a rehash on the same code but I have read some very good things over at the Zoo and SimHQ (especially after a recent patch) so thought I would have a go.

I will let you know what I think after I have a lash with it but any tips, thinks etc welcome.

Yeah I got it some time ago. Played it once and now it rests in peace. Got some really bad bugs until some updates fixed some of them. Graphics ok I guess. I liked to see when the bullets hit the bombers and the effects. To me it was kind of average and didn't hold my attention for long.

Pros-

Sounds
Sounds
Sou.... .......sry!
Campaign(allegedly)
The clouds
6DOF support
The cockpits
Large bomber formations

Not bads-

Aircraft model
flight model
Guns
Speech (Tally Ho!)

Cons-

Ground detail
Ground object detail
The AI (fly like feathers)
AI LOD (disappear worse than a one wing Spit in IL2)
Framerate
CTDs (better now though)
No Online
No Online
No Onli......did I mention the sounds? That merlin roar


Its worth a look Scott.

The game is very immersive. Ground looks the way it loooks, but its not that bad( well, it is not tragic). I like the big formations and the feeling of being in a fight which evolves into complete chaos. It is worth trying, really. And it is still being developed!:)
