Thank you, Les. This is a breathe of fresh air after much heated debates and some downright trolling.
So far, I had less luck with game performances, but from what I saw so far, I agree with you this is the best sim ever. What impressed most me, having learned to fly first in real planes, is the realism of planes handling. In other sims I always needed to adjust to differences in handling and response to command, some minor – like in good old Il2 – some major, like in FS. But with CoD I had to do absolutely nothing but piloting like I’m used to do going through real word air, seated in a real airplane, behind (or in front of) a real engine. This is what amazed me the most.

I do soo agree
This night I played the even dogfight quick mission, 6vs6 in a bf109, and it is just amazing now after the patch! You really get sucked into the cockpit, and in one situation I was shocked, as i pursued a hurricane, when i heard a roaring behind me, and when I realized what it was i pushed the nose down so hard that I got a red out, but could see the tracers like a wall of fire above me. Some even perforated the right wing, leaving small holes..
It is nice that AI doesn't hit like a computer, but do also miss in times.you don't automatically die when they get behind you...
Well I can't even play in full details due to my hd4870, but models on high, shadows on and damage decals and visual effects on high...blows me away already on 1280x1024(got to get me a hd6970 i guess....
After I survived the scirmish(downing only 1 plane as I still suck at aiming)
I headed towards land, where I even recieved playable framerates over cities...amazing
sorry for my english, just thought this would fit into this thread
