They all seem to have the same issues, low FPS, graphics issues in the cockpits (instruments are purple and green etc). Their specs dont really matter when the majority of them have the issues. Its a game problem. I heard that you can fix it by changing the game so it uses direct x 9 instead of 10 but im not sure how to do that
I meant your system specs. I don't think anyone can comment without those. You could of course compare your friends system specs with your own. I don't mean to be rude but if they are all relatively low you could all have similar problems. Same goes for how they are each setup. I assume you've started with the lowest possible settigs and worked up from there?

The thing is, many people are playing CoD quite happily but as one other post here says, you need a fairly high spec machine before you get anything like the results you get in IL-2 '46. There are even some strange anomalies for virtually identical spec machines that may depend on all their Settings (in-game Video, in-game Audio, in-Windows Graphics Card control panel settings, background processes, Windows version, etc) even similar system spec PCs may be producing different results due to how they are set up in total, especially if they have 'borderline' CoD specs. Actually the one constant is the game itself for a set of identical settings.

EDIT: also knowing your settings will help.

When will all of my friends be able to play this game? And, maybe when this is fixed the multiplayer will get more popular too.


Its a shame that the majority of people have such huge issues and cant see how awesome this game really is...when it works.
In short: Yes. Don't be fooled with so many "no, its nice". People are very quick when they need to get accustomed to something which is bad, especially when they gave money for that (the "ego" thing and all that).

This game has been best described when someone said that you need computer from the year of 2015 to play game which has graphics from 2006/7 (yes, it's already outdated, anyone who played some other modern pc game can tell you that)

Sad, but simple as that.

So in short you know what others think, but they themselves don't ?
