Why even discuss this when it can be had for such a small amount of money? you're only going to get a mass of conflicting opinions, either wait for one of the many sales in which it is highly likely to appear in or buy the collectors edition for under £20 from Ubishop: http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubiemea/en...s_Edition.html

For the initial price of €30 I would say no. For the price of €10 however, it gives the user more than any other game like-priced currently.

The game plays fine most of the time. Its main flaw however is that the online play is next to none existant. There is no coop-mode yet. You can only fly so long offline until you get bored and shelve the game.

It feels like the FSX. You got all those pretty planes ready to fight, but you can`t really use them for anything else than sightseeing flying.

I'd say go for it. I have a low spec machine and although I do get CTDs regularly (patch in the works) I've had a great time flying it and still do almost every day. It's going to get a good deal better very soon too.

If your a combat flight sim fan, I'm surprised you haven't supported the sim already. The price is miniscule compared to the system your going to buy to run it. With the upgoming patch even average systems should be able to run the sim with few problems.

Yes it is worth getting it, but imho only to support the Devs to improve lots of things.
For your personal interest, you could be dissapointed getting it at this moment as many things don't work ( for me that is)
But The Tangmere Pilots are a very patient Wing, we waited years for this, so we can wait some more
20 of our Chaps have it and we flew together some 1400 hours (i counted it on Steam) to test things
So far we stopped testing and waiting for the next patch
Just buy it and support the team, but be patient for the results
good luck

I hadn't considered the price drop. I suppose if i'm spending a few hundred on a machine another £20 wont hurt, especially with the potential improvements in the works.

I do indeed enjoy bomber flights. Is there a bomber server? Do AI bombers fly in formation with you yet, or simply follow their course?

Very strange hearing there are no co-op servers!

- bomber server? There are good servers out there, allowing to use bombers at your will
- AI bombers follow their scripted course, they ignore other planes
- again, look for the dedicated bomber thread in some of the sections above
