It's like they were waiting to fool as many flight simmers as they could into buying the inferior Beta console versions, and then they come along only a month and a half after the console release and say "oh by the way here's an upgraded version for PC that has additional content, corrected flight models, better multiplayer, superior graphics AND costs less. You silly Western consumers get to buy our game all over again LOL! And then next year we're coming out with a sequel too to fleece you some more! But this time it will only be on consoles (wink wink). This time you can trust us! LOL"

Wings of Prey? More like Wings of Deception.
In my opinion, I think the devs were just bored waiting for the patch to be approved.

to all the people annoyed they bought this becuause there was no pc version. Why didn't you buy 1946 instead. Everyone has alsways known it was more encompasing in almost every regard. I mean the best thing about BoP for me is that its on Xbox. tbh if I had the choice of titles the PC had I can't say for sure i would've bougth this one over others.

Well... my computer is a 6 year old iMac, and I don't think IL-2 1946 is released on the Mac platform, so I bought the PS3 version. I LOVE BoP, although it's a damn shame that the console game doesn't have all the stuff the PC version has. I don't see why the console game made you unlock all these planes, and the PC game gets them ALL from the start? I certainly hope the remaining cockpits for BoP are released as DLC or I'm gonna be sad...

WoP probably implemented some features that were suggested on these forums. Also, the lack of achievements might play a part in that.

Sometimes I hate achievements, they screw things up in games. Like for example how you can't share Xbox game saves easily on the internet because MS wants to maintain the integrity of the achievement system.
