If everybody started from the hangers and had to warm up then it'd be fine, but in conjunction with the shipped campaigns it's a joke.

The engine isn´t warmed up, they take off cold. Just activate the automatic pilot and see for yourself ;) .

So how are they able to go from cold to running the engine at full power for takeoff?

By switching over to AI it emulates that the engines have been warmed up already. This is in Single Player only. In Multi Player you have to sit and cringe in your cockpit as the 109's strafe your airfield while you impatiently wait for the temps to rise. :)

Dust / Smoke does need to be fixed... the firing cannons on the bf110 is like shooting a time beam which slows down space and time

Which just returns us to the original complaint. There needs to be a pre-warmed engine option for offline flights.

if you ever warmed up any of the radial engined planes in CoD , you want that option for every kind of gameplay......

do one have to warm up the engine of the 109 as well?
i ask this, because i often took off imediately after starting the engine, and no problems occured...

S!

I take my time to warm up the DB engines on 109/110. Maybe not needed, but just for the fun of it and meanwhile adjusting flaps, trim etc. for take-off.

The first and most important fix is proper optimisation of the game engine....Everything else is less important....
