And it seems I am not only one thinking that, because that is what Eurogamers has done, and one the biggest German computer games website too. It's nothing else than waiting for a final review and a score until some patches are out. It's not so uncommon.
The Gamespot review was posted on the 16th, this means he was using the very latest patch because Steam autoupdates to the latest official version. In fact there have been two patches up until now, not including betas. If it is available for sale then it should be reviewed.

This sim was marketed over the internet. Sold over the internet. Reviewed over the internet. What on earth could any developer/publisher be thinking when they release something in a beta state? I have seen worse. The WalMart fiasco with Strikefighters.

no the game is not available on US steam or on amazon.com unless you buy it on a UK site, guys going for it on justflight are far from the average gamer and perfectly know what they are doing

The reviewers comments are accurate IMHO.

I myself am now after several evenings of tweaking, enjoying a reasonably satisfying gaming experience particularly with the dramatic increase of quality with the damage modelling.

Even though overall performance with CoD for me at this time is poor, I have now seen enough to know that this will be significantly superior to the original IL2 given time.

Cheers, CS.

With the beta patch, I actually have smoother game-play than Il-2 1946. It's like a dream, to see a low level airfield attack, with flak bursts and huge fountains of earth erupting, and cars driving around, without any stutters at all. A year from now, we will be hearing about 1,000s of people having their lives ruined from becoming addicted to CloD. I'd be addicted now if we had some more maps like Malta and Libya.
