Ahhhh EAW, my first true love. would you believe i left her for CFS3 (yes, I am ashamed but I did love that mosqito) but she took me back. I had another affair with B17 the mighty 8th but EAW still had my heart. then IL2 came along (aces expansion, not the first one) and I left EAW forever. I still see her around, she's holding her age pretty well, but it's not the same anymore.

Anyone remember the Easter eggs in Fleet Defender? The F-14 simulation from Microprose. If you fly to far to one side of the map there was a flying Dragon. There was also a mission where they scrambled you to VID a bogey that turned out to be a flying disk UFO.

There goes the thread :(

EAW was awesome, and ran like a champ

Windows 8 COD start fix please
 

Sorry to change the subject on EAW but could one of the developers please give some feedback on the Windows 8 issue with IL2 COD not being able to start? Can we hope for a fix?

Obviously, I am not one of the Devs but I can tell you straight that no Windows 8 fix is coming from them. They don't go on this forum anymore and have finished all work on CloD. You never know, mind.... some modder may figure something out at some point in the future. :)

I have no idea if they will make COD work with Windows 8. If its an easy fix I don't see why they wouldn't send a patch to Steam, although it wouldn't be a major issue for the developers because the sim wasn't designed with Windows 8 in mind. That said I don't doubt that Windows 8 will be a spec, considering the number of people who will buy Windows 8 systems, by the time a Sequel is released. The Channel Map will be included with the Sequel if there is a Sequel. I'm not sold on Windows 8 yet.
