I can play but I have to lower the resolution to 2400x600 (800x600 x3 monitors) and then the game looks horrible

If I set the resolution to my usual 3840x1024 (1280x1024 x3) the game runs as a very fast slideshow, even on low settings

(For comparison: I can run Rise of Flight at 3840x1024 with medium-high settings and everything works fine)

if you had paid attention prior to release time you would know why

a fixed release date was only announced about one month prior to the recent russian release date. oleg around the same time was voicing his frustration and distaste at the way business priorities (which must have been his project funders, ubi) were making release decisions in complete disregard of the development stage the programming team was at (ie they still hadnt finished optimizing the game and were still bug fixing)

at the time many optimists (including myself) thought we might just have some bugs with some objects like planes and issues with dynamic weather being unfinished (and a lack of optimized anti epilepsy filter as it soon became apparent). once released however in the last few weeks we can clearly see they needed more time on some major other issues, probably a couple of months at least (aside from the anti epilepsy filter). blaming oleg for releasing it in that condition doesnt make sense, in fact the way SH5 was released unfinished by ubi, and never fixed btw, you can thank your lucky stars that oleg and his team will keep trying to fix BoB/SoW for the coming months until it works right. not many ubi products have such a dedicated team behind them and can say the same.

then again you might be a gen Y who believes milk is made in the supermarket factory and just crying for something you want will instantly put a cosmic tit in your mouth to feed you

in the real world however, unless you have a couple of million to put into this for development money (which as a gen Y you probably think "somebody else should do"), you are entirely dependent on oleg's professionalism and dedication to try and make the best of a very difficult release schedule controlled by ubi. when you express your frustration, at least direct it at the right target. under the less then ideal release situation another alternative would have been to make it a public beta (like DCS did with their A10 sim recently), ubi sales drones however in their ignorance would have seen that as a public confirmation they were releasing unfinished and incomplete products (which would affect their sales image for other games), so in their predictable stupidity they decided instead to release another unfinished product (like silent hunter 5 and a few others) and simply pretend nothing was wrong.

uh... OK, im the new guy, here, not trying to tell anyone what to do but... wouldnt it be much better if we just ignored pointless whining instead of responding with personal attacks? Just wondering...

agreed :)

the constant negativity towards oleg and Co gets a bit tiring after a while, most of it is misplaced (or in tree-uk's case deliberate)

the release was premature, sure, but it is ubi's mess. oleg is the one who will be left to fix it and solve the problems, attacking and blaming him makes no sense and just compounds the problem

Yeah, pointless thread given the imminent patch and lack of system specs in posts.

Jimbop, why dont you try checking all the treads in tec suport, you will find most people in this topic have allready posted there spec, included me,
i just wanted to no how many were still unable to play

So take your pointless reply and go post some were else
have a nice day

Me and I bought the game on steam and dvd...
Restraint...

After many many many crashes the program only once managed to let me fly for a few seconds whohoo ...then it crashed big time (the game and the plane).
Biggest problem is it's a steam game so I cannot even complain that the game is on my bookshelf gathering dust waiting for a decent patch or two.
