And, curiously, while the fact of it lacking some features in the very beginning was an excuse not to buy Rise of Flight, the same thing is used as an excuse to put faith on Wings of Prey. In the end some sound like "No, but it's still in development, buy it, they can fix it! Please, believe me!!"

I'll stick with good and old IL-2, that was already developed and flies and looks closer to reality than Wings of Prey
I very much agree. RoF is everything a good flight sim should be in terms of graphics and physics, WoP is still in development, but here is the thing. WoP started out with roll models like il2 and others, it didnt have to build up a quality base from scratch. All they had to do was imitate the quality of il2 and bingo, you have a great flight sim. Instead I dont know what we got. I am going to evaluate the flight models of the p-51 and spitfire comprehensively against il2 and against records of both planes, probably tommorow. It seems that the 109 model is about right in the game, what I noticed is that the stall in WoP is just too easy to manage. Perhaps this is a game that will get very good with time, and I might even start posting comments in their forum to help, but here is an example of a game that should have had it right, the FIRST TIME out, not several patches later.
