I've been a happy customer since the first release of IL-2, and was a little dismayed to read the state of the game on release. I'd held off buying a new rig until this long-anticipated moment, and then, reading the forums....oh dear - it's unplayable
I suddenly lost all interest in upgrades, new games, life itself, even
How could they do this to us????!!!
But then some less negative comments started appearing...so I got a new rig, G940 combo and dusted off my Steam account.
I must have been lucky - it installed with no problems with the latest official patches applied, and ran fine without any tweaking.
I have to say this game is by far the most immersive, realistic and credible sim I've ever played, and the problems it still has aren't major issues. I'm fairly confident they'll be addressed in time, based on previous experience.
But here's a problem:
It's supposed to be a Battle of Britain sim, and is missing the single most innovative, technologically advanced, and just plain sexy British cannon fighter ever invented, which WAS in-service during the BoB.
So...
When, oh when, oh WHEN are we going to get a WHIRLWIND?!?!?!
Rant over?
I don't think so
