IL-2 Sturmovik - Birds of Prey Soundtrack Review
 

Original Sound Version published a review of IL-2 Sturmovik - Birds of Prey Soundtrack.
You can find the article here.

I don't recall all those tracks, cause I turn the music off during gameplay, it's too much of a distraction.

I might listen to it more if it had incorporated air and military music from the real world, esp from world war 2. For example, the Jagdflieger/Aviamarsh tune used by both Germany and USSR. And the Soviet parts could have included Proshanie Slavanki somehow. I think both those songs can be freely used without royalties.

I thought this was fantastic news -- not so much the review, but that the soundtrack is available online for purchase from DirectSong.

Unfortunately, after paying with my credit card, I can't download the soundtrack. The download ends almost immediately after starting without downloading anything. There is also no email for product support.

Anyone have better luck?

Edit: I submitted a query to their automated help desk. Will update when/if they reply.

Same here... can't download after paying..

Did you guys get it from DirectSong? Iirc there is a plug-in required for your browser to download stuff from the website.

Finally it worked!

Awesome soundtrack... No wonder I liked "The engagement" so much... it's in the dramatic key of D minor... (opening progression for my fellow musicians: Dm, Gm/D, A7/D) Another great soundtrack in that tone is "The Dark Knight"

Support emailed me -- they fixed the download link, that's probably why Dr. Laplace could download it. No special plug-in required, just Flash support in your browser.

I'm downloading it now, opinion later. But just listening to the samples on their web page while I was trying to download it convinced me the soundtrack is worth a listen.

What gives? I created an account and placed an order. I recieved a confirmation email, but no download link. I went into my account and clicked on past orders and nothing is showing up. I emailed their store about it nine hours ago and nothing.

I don't know, man: they emailed me but the message went straight into my junk mail folder. Check there.

I got it working just fine. The soundtrack is awesome.

Did they email you a link to download it, or was the link on their website? Also, do you remember which email address you used to contact them? I used store@directsong.com since that was the one my confirmation came from.

Thanks.

No special link or instructions. If I had to guess, I'd say they either had a problem with their link and fixed it or there is a time period you have to wait until you can actually download the files. I used the same email as you did.

Yeah this is really frustrating. The link provided in my order confirmation email is just a link to their homepage and they still haven't responded to my request for help. :mad:

Thanks for trying to help Dr. Laplace :)

Filled out a support ticket on their site three days ago.....still waiting :mad:

if all fails
sue them lol

Sounds good, how about $10,000 for pain and suffering? :-)

$10,000? u set your sights wayy too low i was thinking more like 5bn

Still waiting.....I'm usually a patient person, but this is crazy.:evil:

Direct song must be a division of 505.:-P
