Well... let's put it this way... I am a bad shooter in Il-2 1946 and I shoot the same in WoP

On ground you cant see squat if you don't fly by the book. You really need to be familiar with the terrain a bit otherwise you miss all targets... visually, not a chance to hit them.


P-51 is a PITA to fly especially with those rockets... snap-stalls like crazy.

You do have a lot of ammo in realistic (in simulation is bad due to viewing distance and the milky atmosphere... at least on britain map)




To be more clear... IL-2 1946 can be tone down in realism a heck lot more than WoP at simulation mode. In fact WoP seems very little behind to IL-2 in some fine aspects of flying but because the enviroment is so much more life like is hard to "digitize".

Oh... WoP has support for Freetrack or TrackIR by default... 6DoF... and whats even more funny... in Spitfire you get the same "bug" while looking back to one side like in IL-2 1946 with 6DoF Mod (praise sHr once more, S!)



The radio comms are nice too... pitty you can't ask for instructions etc... but is nice to hear the tower asking for status and the pilot saying... "come again, your breaking up..."


P.S. For ppl in South Africa etc with small bandwith... the demo of the game is available in torrent download which works better in such small bandwidth and can be resumed anytime you want... the demo contains the full game but you have to purchase it online to enable it full... I guess is a good option.

later edit..

a nice ingame movie



later later edit... the famous 6DoF bug
