oleg, you better hurry, RoF is releasing a ww-2 sim next - Page 15

I still fly the original IL-2 release, un-patched & un-pluged

. A very refined out of the box sim, if you were to ask me. Right now ROF has a bit of a black eye, which tends to scare off some potential customers.

I never had problems with my original IL2 either. Infact, from my personal experience, I'd say that IL2 is one of the most bug free out-of-the-box-games I ever had.

The only really bad thing that comes to my mind is the manual setup of IPs.

But I still miss the touchy P39 in the original IL2 and of course the whistling sound of the 109, especially in times of excellent sound-alternatives for most other aircraft.

The RoF appreciation society has thinned out considerably from most of the forums.
If you sugar coat a turd,its still a turd.They didn't even bother to sugar coat RoF!
IF it survives,one day it might be worth the purchase price.

I wouldn't go as far as to say the game is not worth the price or even a turd.

It is a good simulation and it's fun to fly and stuff.

But it's the brown, stinky touches they applied to the nice simulation, that makes it hard to fall in love with.

The sim has potential... it does have some plusses... I still cant get tpo most of them because I have yet to fly a successful mission because for some reason my TIR goes out every time... but the sim has potential. I am certain NQ will fix many of the issues... I dont think they invested as much time, work & money into this thing to let it doe on the vine... but there is a window of opportunity to maximize a product's potential.... I am not sure if they will make it through that window without squeezing through..

It seem's to me that they rushed it out the door, at least that's the feeling I get after reading all of the neg. post here and there. If there were any English only speaking beta tester's, you would think that that problem with the language would have been pointed out, and fixed. Now couple that with the call home feature, it just plain scares people away. Well I should say scares me away...I hope that they survive and clean it up, add some content, it does look good! grafics/fm...I wish that I was "in" on the ground floor, but I think that I should wait.

Maybe is just me, but I don't think $39 dollars is that big of an investment for a healthier future for prop combat flight sims. Especially when I consider what we spend on computers, monitors, and peripherials to play the software. I agree that ROF needs alot of work, but that will be continually upgraded, if ROF generates enough initial revenue to continue. Maybe all of us in the community don't need to initially support the developers, but I just hate to leave it up to chance. There is alot of quality in what we've seen so far from ROF, so we know they have some talent.

NeoQB, a bunch of l***s.....they told me that the sim will have full wide screen support....what a bunch of l***s

I feel like somebody slaped me in the face since I was the one who trusted them the most....

I realize its a new sim with a lot of bugs...but when someone lies in marketing purpose (to the ppl who trusted and supported them) and then vanish....

Would you pay $97 for it though Chivas,because that is what it would cost me in the UK,with postage and customs!
I wouldn't.

Wait another 3 weeks, then you will pay 39$, too. Aerosoft will sell the game in Europe.

Until a few days ago you could also have ordered the import version from local stores. Here in Germany it costs 50 Euros including taxes and shipping from the US.
