I stopped reading at "...fuel-trucks and bowsers whizzing around...". Makes it sound like there's an SP game worthy of the name, all full of life and goodies and immersion.

There isn't. The game, when it doesn't crash or lock-up, is utterly sterile. The SP campaign isn't a campaign, it's a bunch of very shoddy single missions strung together. And strung together badly.

Maybe your review/preview goes on to mention that but, like I say, I stopped reading it when it began to give a very false impression.

gotta admit this guys right, it really badly put together, although the aircraft models are groundbreaking, the terrain and textures are rigbreaking.

and thats not a campaign, its an unplayable pixel dump of heaving lag and sound anomalies.

still love flying over the channel though

I think that is more or less a result of the engine being so badly optimized, that even people with identical hardware get different results.

I could not claim having any problems with either of the campaigns performancewise on my just about med-specs rig, so that would possibly show if I did a review. Definately worth correcting in the article though before too many people get the wrong impression.
