What kind of masochist votes like this?

"I'm playing it and not enjoying it because of the flaws "

I cry foul on this one, you must be enjoying something if you are playing it!

It's not a chore it's a game if you don't like it don't play it.

Not necessarily - I would have chosen this if I was still testing settings and tweaking without being able to actually 'play'.

Trying to play it through its flaws but I'm probably gonna stop playing it to see where it goes if the next patch doesnt make real headway so they can start adding content.
I always end up feeling very frustrated when i try to play this game at the moment if i'm honest.

I have to say that after years of tweaking IL2 Sturmovic and its addons, I am kind of disappointed with this version. The ability to have a different pilot and start new campaigns was a nice idea in the old game. The ability to easily customize a quick mission was much easier in my opinion. There are many complaints that I am sure we could all bring up, but I am willing to wait to see where this game goes. I hope that the devs will continue to give it the support it needs and deserves. Patch on!

Default forgot a choice

You forgot an option.

"I know this game will be great if not given up on so I'm playing it and enjoying it despite the flaws, but believe we are owed more frequent and regular patches with improvements that don't further break the game until all features are included and in good operating condition as promised to the consumer at time of purchase."

It's probably got more to do with my bad wording of it...

It's for peope who play it, get frustrated and play something else, I hope most people know what I meant.

The problem with this game is the flashes of brilliance!

I get a little annoyed by the lack of some features, overall it runs pretty smooth for me, I'm waiting for the campaign to get fixed and to be able to loadout my planes and command wingmen, plus for the MP to work smoothly..

Problem stopping me from putting it away is the moments like I had just now, up against a pack of unsupported bombers, diving down on one, must have hit his fuel tank - he explodes in front of me I then swoop out of the dive and have to break sharply to avoid hitting a piece of his smoking fuselage at it tumbles past my wing... very cool! I then flew into flack and watched another bomber take a direct hit from flack right in front of me - blew him to pieces!

This is of course balanced by all the sorties i empty all my ammo into the back of a bomber and it flys on happily, Oh how i wish we could land and rearm!

So yeah, annoyingly addictive! I cant wait for it to be fixed!

Some of us are effectively acting as unpaid beta testers, finding bugs, investigating them, posting our findings in the appropriate forum and hoping that this will result in a fix from the devs.

This isn't "fun" in the sense that flying IL2 would be fun. It's more like some kind of community service work. It's worth doing, because it may help the game get better faster, but it's certainly not instantly gratifying.
