Sturmovik is the better simulator but HoE is by far the better game. There is a difference. The vast majority of gamers out there are a million miles away from the people who form the main membership of this forum. They haven't somehow convinced themselves that they've flown WWII fighters for real and really don't give a rat's ass whether they can use a joystick or not. What they want is a game that has no pretensions and delivers a fast and fun gaming experience in both single and multi player. Sturmovik could have delivered this AND its niche market simulation offerings. It didn't, it won't, and that's why it's a dead game online already except for a small handful of aviation bores and boosters.

Sturmovik makes too many mistakes and has way too many obvious omissions to ever be more than a very minor cult hit among the aircraft nerd community.

Mock HoE as you like, I bet we see a sequel for it though. That's not a guarantee for a failure like Sturmovik.

dude thats like comparing

one of those Polystyrene crackers that women eat (snakajaps) HOE

to a 10oz steak with mushrooms and onion rings and a side salad and a nice ice cold beer il2 sturmovik

1 is tastless nonfood
the other is full of flavor filling and refreshing

go back to playing mariocart in the sky

I don't really remember how the unicorn thing got started. I know it was because of something Dennis said, can't rember what though.

Wow, kinda glad I saw this topic. I was going to get HoE, but seeing as it's being bashed by other IL-2 fans, i'll buy NFS: Shift instead
