It's got a flyable Blenheim. And if it looks and runs as well on low settings for me as Il-2 does on high; anything else is cake.

Maybe CPU too.


lol


Play Sims3 or something like that.
So is this a pathetic attempt to insult me because I dont want to buy some pedals or some other peripheralthat I dont need? I simply enjoy the experience with a Logitech joystick and I dont want all the other "hardcore sim" attachments. I play other games too so its not like I am going to spend over a $100 just to play IL 2.

I apologise for my original post Tacky, you caught me in a weak moment after reading all the negative threads and I took your "tone" the wrong way, my bad.

Your above post explains some of the differences with players of this sim, unlike consoles where everyone is playing on an even platform the nature of pc's vary greatly.

I personally have spent well over $2000 (probarly much more) on various Hotas, trackir's, headphones and pc upgrades over the last 8 years just to enjoy this game. I fully understand that not everyone enjoys "full switch" and a lot of players just like to fly in the action servers, and therein lies our differences of opinion in what is important in the game and what isn't.

If COD does attract a lot of new players from word of mouth/steam or whatever, the majority of those players will fly in the easier dogfight servers with maybe 5% taking it to the next level.
And those of us who have played the game primarliy as a WW2 flight "simulator" must realise that if the game does go forward we will become the minority.

As i said earlier each to thier own, lets just all enjoy it when it is released no matter what our preferred style of play.

Cheers

I think we should give the conspiracy theorists full rein here. Are Tree, Tanner and TacKY the same person? Are they acting in cahoots?

Is there in fact a conspiracy to throw in negative inflammatory posts or is it all a misunderstanding and really those that question the abilities/features of a not-yet-released game are just misunderstood?

Discuss.

Maybe if you would read the ******* thread instead of just talking you would know something about whats going. Unlike the people that want to the buy game based on promises, I want to know the full list of things that will be on the game. Oleg has a good track record but that doesnt mean that he wont have a game that flops and is bad. I am simply wanting an official feature list on the game's website or some other place so that it can be readily available to new people who want to get the game too. It doesnt matter that you are going to buy it based on Oleg's promises because the majority of people that he probably wants to buy the game are the people that have never heard of IL 2 or been on these forums.

I'm sure you want your little full feature list but have you been living under a rock for the last 5 years? Keep dreaming that you'll get a full list of >all< the features in a game.(pre-release)
Besides im sure not even Oleg would wanna spoil everything to his community. The majority around here knows what to expect from his products anyway.

Buying it based on his track record is good enough for a lot of people, including me, we know it isn't some rushed console port with a lack of passion,
if that was the case yeh then i would agree with you.. but on this product its laughable, some treat it like its another rehashed COD(Call of Duty) installment.

What a fool. There will be planes and stuff. That's all you need to know until it's released. If you want to know more before you buy the game then wait for reviews or read these forums after it has been released.

As for saying that you want a list for newcomers well that comment smells. Grow up and learn patience.

I'm sorry, but do you realize how ludicrous that statement is? What the hell is a list of features that Oleg gives you but a promise? What difference does it make if you have a list of "features"? Most of the "feature" lists you get from game developers is little more relevant than the bull a used car salesman gives you. Do yourself a favor and do some research if $50 is that valuable to you. It's free.
