PC Pilot Review
 

There's very nice coverage of CoD in the current issue of PC Pilot. Thankfully, due to editorial deadlines, they didn't have time to do a proper review but promise to do so in the next issue. So, a positive reviewette for now and hopefully a glowing one in the next issue.

I prefer all my outdated info printed on dead trees!

Hey! Don't be mean to Tree!! ;)

+1

I'm gonna stick up for PC Pilot here.
The last issue of the mag was released at about the same time as the game was released in the UK and the mag is only published every 2 months.

Have to admit though, that I cant see PC Pilot slating the sim even if they want to seeing as they would be sort of cutting their own nose off to spite their face (or summat like that! :D)

Good. Because in Custom PC magazine they reviewed it and gave it 35%. That means everyone thinks it's XXXXX and won't buy it or try it. I would have preferred that they didn't review it at all and did so later - that way we may have more people trying CFS genre. Still, if you prefer to have a nice rant to somehow proove a point that everyone else already knows then go ahead.

Regarding the article, I was rather hoping that it was scanned or copied out here so we could read it, not a pointless photo to show that it exists.

I'll take anything that PC Pilot Magazine says with a grain of salt and I've purchased the magazine for many years from Barnes & Noble.

This is also the same magazine that gave FSX a glowing 95% review upon its release. Anybody who's been around the MS FS block knows that FSX was a performance mess upon release, plagued with coding problems, landclass issues, etc. It took two major patches to get the darned thing playable.

PC Pilot is in it to make money, nothing more, nothing less.

So, did the game get released early or late? Sorry for saying so, but you seem to be contradicting yourself a bit. :-P

PC Gamer UK gave it 72%

Way too lenient!

I have this issue, It says while they did get the game, they were not able to play it for long enough to give a fair appraisal.

Thats fine by me, If I want an early review from a general gaming site there are plenty out there already, gamespot, pcgamer etc

Pcpilot mentions the game has had performance issues since release and the devs are trying to resolve them.

This preview just gives an overview of the game modes.

If you need context of time they reviewed DCS A-10C warthog in this issue (and liked it)
