I do that.

But it's not hard to do a demo. You just take the menu of the game and you put the training mission and one combat mission. Just that.

Someone can do that, if you know how to do or I have to wait for 1C???

You will wait your a** off. There certainly won't be a demo. Go and watch some videos on youtube and read the forum.
The game is bugged, unoptimised but there is at least a little hope we get the long awaited patch in the next weeks. It will hopefully polish some of the crap that came with the release. So if your unsure whether you can run the game, wait till the patch is out and people have tested it on their rigs.

I watch the video on youtube, but I can't buy the game in my city and country (Canada) and I'm a teen and I can't buy this game by website like ebay, amazon, etc.

I just want to know if I will be able to run the game with my laptop Intel HD Graphic 1st generation. I run Il2 1946 wihtout mod v.4.11 and I have no lag and I think I run this game at 50-60 fps or more. I just don't have Antialiasing
I just want to test...

Watch my other post in technical discussion to view that I have all requierement, but my graphic card just not figure in the list of possibility and I don't know if it will work.
If I can play in low, I will play in low. I just want to have game.

I just took a look at the other thread of yours.....

Personal opinion? Not a snowball's chance in hell. You will definitely need to get a graphics card to even run this in low I'm afraid.

Unfortunately, until the much touted graphics patch is released, the system requirements are to be ignored as I had a hell of a time getting my PC to run CloD and I do meet the requirements..... yet I am running it far better (Apart from when there are too many planes in the air and those darned particles!) than some people with machines that make my PC look like a BBC Micro.

Anyway.... you can pick up CloD by asking an adult to charge it to their card and you just hand them the cash. If you downloaded a pirate copy to use as a "Demo" you are, not only on serious dodgy ground morally but also legally and, apart from that, you won't have access to any of the patches...... believe me..... you see some of the moaning on this forum now! Trust me... release day CloD was a living nightmare so you wouldn't get any indication of how the game runs anyway. You will also, as has been mentioned above, be opening yourself up to all kinds of nasty malware etc....... Simply not worth the potential fallout.

I have three possibility:

1. Install the game on my bad laptop and try with patch.
2. Install the game on the good computer in my house, but I without patch, cause my father.
3. Convince my parent to buy another laptop (Alienware) at 1000$.

Choice 4) Shop around and build your own desktop for less than the Alienware laptop giving you more space for future upgrading. : )

I don't know the price of components where you are but my rig was bought as is and cost £500 a few years ago and the graphics card, which was added more recently, cost me £75. I'm fairly confident, once the patch is out, that it will run CloD pretty well (Though not at full graphics. Believe it or not, Medium settings look pretty nice!). The equivalent of mine nowadays would cost an awful lot less and, in fact, even cheaper if built from scratch.... that applies to PCs that would trample all over my one as well

If you shop smartly, you should be able to build a good enough machine for a really reasonable amount of cash..... with the added bonus of being able to just pop a great graphics card in once you have a job (I'm assuming you don't have one at the mo.)

The problem is that I don't have the space for a desktop PC and I don't know how to build one from scratch. I prefer to buy one.
it's too complicated the life with laptop and computer in general
