The recent beta patches have improved the performance of the game and got rid of the crash to desktops for most, unfortunately the beta patches have also tweeked the RAF FM for the worst

.
1. ATAG is a good server, JG27 host campaigns now and again.
2. ATAG host missions with ground targets, ships and airfield etc...
3. Personally I am enjoying the game, that said not enough people play and the lack of things that we were expecting such as a decent weather system is quite annoying. But like I said online is good fun, suggest you get on teamspeak.
4. Like Kristof said RAF FM's are porked which is the main reason we are down in numbers atm...
5. Not sure what you are getting at.
Its worth a try to see what performance is like I try and jump in a blenheim and bomb a target when I have the time.
