If you had midrange card from 4xx or 5xx series you would see the difference.

Possibly a fair point...but the story behind that:

A month before COD's release I spent £600 upgrading my PC (new CPU, MB, RAM) and buying new joystick, throttle and rudder pedals.

As what I thought was going to be a strictly temporary measure I decided to hold off on updating the graphics card until the game came out to see how the GTX260 faired (there was huge speculation before release about how demanding the game would be - lots of speculation - no real evidence)

I was SO disappointed (shocked actually!) about the state of the game that I could never justify to myself spending anything more to run a game I didn't like at higher frame rates. And at that point even those with up to date video cards were not having wonderful experiences.

Haven't been doing much gaming at all recently so the 260 is still there - but obviously well due for an upgrade.

If Team Fusion manage to get a.i. radio commands working then I'd be right up for some of the off-line campaigns out there.

SlipBall, you used to fly online in IL2 1946 occasionally, no? You really want to make time to try it in CoD. Its epic!!!!:grin:

Great screens AS! Love that one of the close-in Hurricane.

KL-B looks familiar Arthur, lol.

great shots Arthur and great fun, the comradery :)...I think on-line is the best experience but I rarely have the time to search for a victim, or become one...off-line is instant, plus I'm hooked on the EU release before many of the changes occurred with the game. The mod has the on-line element much improved, so every once in awhile I will pop in...and in that video.. I'll work on my timing, I was supposed to drop right on his six, lol

This guy is used to do videos with CloD, his Bo$ "review":

The only thing "bad" is these exaggerated "WT" fire/smoke effects (IMO,OC).

;)

I'm glad that you like it arthur
