1. Elvis has left the building (Oleg is no longer operationally on the team).
2. The game runs great on my rig and many other with high en rigs. I stay above 50 fps in dogfights over London and down low over the City. A massive amount of bugs have been fixed in the last patch that came this week.
3. No other WWII sim is even close so what is the alternative?
4. Watch a video like this
