I turned the corner too, only I was going the other way. I'm really enjoying it now and yet a month ago I was really losing patience with the demands the engine was making on my machine and was ready to knock it into touch. For some reason, CTDs and that sound thing aside (which I seem to be able to get past by CTRL F2ing through enemy aircraft...go figure), the thing seems to run more or less fine on my rig. The grapchics are stunning, I find with CEM/limited ammo etc I'm just barely able to control my fighter, and I rarely get a kill whilst with Il2-46 (how I wish CloD was called Storm of War, just differentiating it from the previous Il2 seems idiotic) I wouldn't even break a sweat knocking out 4 or 5 planes with the same parameters. According to Steam I've knocked up over 200 hours with the sim open. All for the price of a meal for two at the local curry house. Yes it's got a looooooooooooong way to go but it's no coaster.
