...70€ and work to beta-tester-gamer????.... I think that this is a insult at consumer...

I think that in the future, if i will buy a game from 1c, or wait two years to game will playable or not buy game...

I feel cheated...

I bought this sim.

Unplayable "out of the box".

After the last beta patch, I can have fun with large air battels over London, with no big performance flaws.

My rig:

Phenom X4 3.4GHz
4GB ram 800Hz
ATI HD 4850 512MB

I use 1680x1050, fullscreen, AA2x, Vsync ON, Models High, Effects High, Shadows, Grass and Roads ON. Just low the other settings, like terrain shaders, forest, etc.

The sim runs SMOOTH now!

The work solving bugs is in a good pace.

Ok, it seems that the differences between patches are not big in terms of performance...but at the end it seems the last is smoother

Yes, copy the folders and allow them to overwrite If you have issues, go to Steam Library, select properties and select verify integrity of cache and it will revert to the latest official patch.

From what I have seen.. a significant number of the posts are generated by people not knowing how to update the game, and the fairly complex structure under Win7 where the same fiels are stored in different locations

i pasted all files into il-2 folder,

now when i try to launch game, launcher stops working and program shuts down...so no more game




guess time to delete and reload ...

What version you have, Russian or European ?

You should download the patch assigned to your version.

To repair the game click on it in Steam and go to properties, then click local files.

Now click Verify the integrity of cache, Steam will revert all changes.

I'm not expecting too much improvement in fps because since last patch the performance is pretty high at least in my system ( 19-152 fps in Black Death)
We need more content and gameplay improvements...

Seriously, you're not going to get an indepth simulation this day and age that doesn't have a good number of bugs in it. It's just the way it is. Granted the sim was released a month or two too early - but they'll get there. Give it some time. Go fishing. Chase women. Grow your own...

The clipped wing spits where my favorite and with cannons.
