The US release date needs to be moved up 1 week it makes no sense at all for this

And btw Sim mode aint that hard. Put sensitivity down to your likes.
Be easy on the stick, dont be to wild and all be good.

This aint a pc sim, with millions of buttons.

I need to apologize to guiltyspark.

He was right. It was called for.


dennis580, have you even tried the BoP demo? Your ignorance to the differences between these two games is amazing. It seems that basically what you are looking for is mario kart in the WWII sky.

Like releasing a week early would make any difference at all in your case. You want to know what you can get with BoP? GO PLAY THE EFFIN DEMO!

The Right Stick controls your throttle when flicked up and down, but also banks you without steering when pointed left or right. Controls like these are less about re-creating the realities of propeller-driven flight and more about making your plane do anything you want it to do in the air. It controls more like a TIE Fighter than a Spitfire. It is practically impossible to stall a plane in Heroes Over Europe, and crashing only happens when you get shot down or point your plane directly at something hard like the ground.[/I]

Ok, now I know which game I will not buy. Even BF1943 has rudder controls and the flight physics there are far from convincing.

Even though it was fun to fly in BF1943
the flight physics were horrible!

I think HOE will do a lot better then that!
Its just for the easy player the "halo" audience.
You will never get the feel of a real pilot! wich i do get from il-2 combined with watching the series Dogfights!

I cann't play the demo as I don't have access to it. I only own a PS3, and besides I am still on dialup(yea I live in a rural area that doesn't have access to broadband yet).

HoE has rudder controls. The author was playing with the "idiot" control setting. There is also a professional setting.

And i'm picking up both. My favorite genre, my favorite time period. I'll take all I can get.

Oh, cool. Well, then I'll get that one as well. Somehow I need to justify the investment into the AV8R

[EDIT: Does anybody know if HoE will feature cockpit view?

I'm really confused about HoE now...

is it a gardening sim, pimp sim or Santa Sim (or would the latter be HoEHoE?)


Mario Kart of the sky? Being Italian it would be confusing which side to shoot at...( the losing one I guess )

incoming accusations prejudice in 3,2,1....

I just recieved my GameStop News E-Mail that I subscribe to and noticed what may be a typo error. Here's a cut and paste of the text that pertains to Birds of Prey:

The Gun Show is Coming to Town, too
When you're finished piloting fighters, battle planes and heavy bombers through more than 50 of World War II's most famous battles, you can show off your guns with the GameStop-Exclusive IL 2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey T-shirt, which will arrive with your game.

Ships September 8 for Xbox 360, PS3, DS and PSP: Reserve now!

Do you see what I see?

[P-51]

yes but still the 4th of september is better!
