I play both server types- one of my computers has Track IR setup and I play full-real on that one, but prefer open cockpit on my PC at my other house because I don't have Track IR on it.

Hmm, i just checked, at the moment 9 servers have more than 15 people, of wich only 2 are with no external views (and its always the same 10 severs with people in it). And one of those 2 is not 4.09 and with an extra mod needed, so that leaves one. <--- that one is a czech server were almost no one uses the 'normal' alphabet. sooo

cockpit only is often there yeah, but not the 'no external views'... wich I hate most (it takes away most of the pilot aspect I think.. )

I haven't given it up yet. I just been busy latey. I still get on for an hour or two a day, with the exception of the past several days. I play allot of training mode due to lack of people on line. This weekend may be tough, because here in Northern America, it is halloween, and many, myself included have been taking kids out trick or treating, or other parties, or family festivities..

I hope to get on a little tommorow (Sunday) to play some..

I dont' play as much as I did when it first come out, but that is to be expected with any game once the new wears off. But, I still enjoy playing it. But like anyone else, wish the patch would come out so I can get over some of the little irritants..

No PC as I use a laptop so it's XBOX only to the bitter end. Ok so far with finding sessions but sometimes the hosts game settings are odd - CTA in a Blizzard at night? Don't like them at all......

On a positive note, If only a few Xbox die hards continue to play:-

a) our names will go to the top of the leader board

b) MP unlocks easily obtained

Well I am happy you guys discover the IL2 PC series, which is really the still the queen of the skies so to say, hehe. You come just a tiny bit late, the "high times" online were in 2003-2007...still a very long time for a game, with every night 1000+ players back then. Today many have wandered off or are waiting for Oleg's Storm of War - which promises to be a absolute blast by the way.
