Hi, I've been playing combat flight sims for 20 years or so. I fell in love with WW2 sims with European Air War. I got my self a force feedback stick at the same time, I was in heaven. I tried IL-2 Sturmovik when it first came out but my pc wouldn't run it (sound familiar?). IL-2 Pacific Fighters was when I really got hooked. With time my apatite for full real has grown. I'm now as happy as a pig in poop with COD. I now fly with Track IR and Saitek X52 j-stick and rudder pedals. I find I can no longer play IL-2 1946 as its like an arcade game compared to COD.
The future is bright thanks to IL-2 and the online flight sim community. ~S~
