If you're willing to go to those lengths why not just fly a real plane

Don't be fooled again. Remember the "as real as it gets" ad campaign for CFS3? Bletttch. Personally, I've wasted enough money on M$ crappy flight sims.

And with nerds I really mean it in the most negative way.

They have one thing in common though: The lack of a real life.

This at least applies to the hard core twerps


I ordered my girlfriend to chop off my balls if I ever end up like this

just to keep the gene pool ok...

Really now. I would be careful to call people with other interests than your's nerds... Chances are quite large that you girlfriend already thinks you are one. I know for a fact that most of our wifes/girlfriends who sees us "playing fighters with our small friends" DO think we are nerds...

Well, the scenery does look pretty nice, BUT ... they don't have to spend any CPU power calculating Damage models. They don't have to use any CPU power to calculate bullet trajectories. Does it have moving vehicles ? Smoke ? ( maybe there's a Forestfire addon ). What's the water like ? Do they cater for up to 128 planes on a map ?

So maybe, just maybe CoD isn't going to have photo-realistic terrain, but, y'know, I kinda like the combat bits

I play Call of Duty and I call us air support.

Ms flight is not a simulator, it's not comparable not the same category,
you should compare with Bird of prey...

and for me the MS flight simulator is not very optimized, ok graphsim are beautifull, but they need a recent gamer config

So much hate and intolerance on this thread.So FSX gamers like to call themselves pilots?Whats wrong with that?Cant people really enjoy what they like????I've never played FSX but I cant stand so much unjustified attacks on people because they are really into a commercial flight sim.If I go out now and buy Flight Simulator Ill become a nerd??I thought the Il-2 community consisted mostly of adults but from some of these comments it seems there are a lot of kids waiting for Cliffs of Dover.

That's exactly what the MS flight sims are... a commercial airline flight simulator.

Comparing MSFS to il2 is like comparing apples and oranges... sure, they're both fruit but both have completely different characteristcs.


I have to agree on the "kids waiting" thing

I dont think that would be the case. I'm ranked somewhere near the top 1000 and in Battlefield 2. I think most playing Battlefield 2 would dig this game if they would just give it a chance.
