Just my 5 kopeek (russian equivalent to cents)...

ah spoken like a true asshat(just thought i set the tone at a level you'll understand

) who is clearly better then all us.

Interesting thing is that while i could post pics here to prove you wrong 5 times over,it is against the rules here and i won't.
All I'll say is anyone who thinks that go and have a look at the screenshots thread or the no links just reasons why ppl use the mods threads at UBI and see how very wrong Saqson is.

Wolf rider,ppl have been cheating for FAR longer then that,far longer then the whole "mod" thing has been around,If you'v been in playing IL-2 for long you would know that.

Rather a bourgeois comment don't you think? Or perhaps you will be buying everyone those super-computers so they can leave the Il-2 series behind...

SoW will be the domain of the privileged few for a good long while before the average pc catches up.

If you know how to use a mouse to select different options you won't need a super computer to run the SOW series. A low option SOW will be far superior to a high option IL-2. A decent computer costs very little to what it did a few years ago, especially if you upgrade componants.

I find this hard to believe. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying your lying or that this wasn't true when 46 was released but It seems like it has picked up in the last year or two. I see so many new people coming to this sim and getting 1946. In fact I've seen more new players come to this sim in the last year or so than when 1946 first came out. I wish we had access to the sales figures but it seems like 1946 really only took off in the last 18 months. Almost every day at the Ubi forums we have a new player posting a question.

This is what matters...

Skarden...

If you mean "trim" and gun settings... you're right, though is putting *aelirons on a slider or quickly double tapping a key cheating?

Is setting machine guns guns to a cone and setting cannons to fire dead parrellel cheating? (maybe it is/ maybe it isn't)

If you mean swapping out FM/ DM, that was about 2 years ago, when I first noticed something wasn't right, then that is.

Lexx...

it is still supporting the hacking of the sim
