I decided to play it for a bit and, as expected, it's arcadish and isn't even close to a simulation yet.

Graphics are a tad exaggerated and too dark.

Got to fly the B-17L, a light-weight variant produced in Russia, also known as La-7. It carries 32 bombs under the very same wing pylons. Whoa, those Russian engineers are good, aren't they ?

Things are way too shaky from inside the cockpit, and views need some tuning.

Planes start burning in one short burst, no matter what.

This is just the tip of the iceberg, and I could go on forever, but I'll keep this short.

I have to say, the whole atmosphere of the mission is good, and the radio messages are nice. Still, it's not a simumlator in any way. Maybe I feel like this because I'm a bit spoiled by IL-2

A good arcade-like aviation game. Won't get any close to IL-2's 6, however.
