I'm waiting for it to get out of beta, simple as that.

There are too many problems, all of which we know, to list.

I miss "flying" but it's simply too frustrating, and I'm not going to muck about with all the manual beta installs.

Call me when the next official patch is released.

Pretty much this. Was expecting IL2:1946 with prettier visuals, less planes, more bells and whistles. What I got was a buggy mess, that has a sad excuse for single player, and features that dont work.

To add insult to injury instead of completing what people bought, they are already making a new game. Funny, and sad.

A modern era WWII sim game aint happening soon it seems.

-Poor AI: That don't use same physics as human. Strange bomber gunner behavior.

-Poor FMs and DMs: RAF planes that are neither fun to fight against or in. Far too slow, engines blowing up/overheating; Hurricane that can't turn to save it's life. Although much potential, DMs are screwed.

Bad framerates and strange display corruption I get with the occasional game including this one - I get green and/or black squares being rendered accross my monitors about 50% of the time I try to play the game... (resolution is 5040x1050 accross SLI'd 470's which I soon plan to update to 670's.)

For me its the following and in no particular order.

1. Floating ships online
2. Lack of ship models
3. Poor Fm's
4. Lack of aircraft damage sounds
5. Slow downs, dust particles/smoke and zooming in
6. Aircraft skins and weathering, kills immersion for me when I see the same rubbish skin on all 109's.
7. Netcode
8. Crap AI
9. Radio commands
10. Flickeing trees
11. Buiulding pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted.
12. see bug list.

I would like to add:

13. Different weather... I dont care if it dynamic or not... I just want some overcast and some stratus clouds... Maybe some high towering CBs as well.

14. Darker tree colours. SImple fix. Trees have a tendancy to be the darker part of the landscape. This will make a huge difference for the look of the game.
examples below

For me its the following and in order.

1. Building pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted.
1a) Weather/Clouds/ Overcast (lack of any real weather effects or immersion)
2. Crap AI
3. Poor FM's
4. Slow downs, dust particles/smoke and zooming in
5.Stutters (micro)
6. Flickering trees
7. Netcode (as I mainly play offline)
8. No Anti-Aliasing
9. Ridiculously hard to use in-game .avi creator with no manual to explain just how to use it effectively!
10. Just in-case you forgot since I mentioned it- Building pop up, incredible that a game released in 2011 cannot get this sorted when others make it look easy.
11. Loadout can't be changed on some aircraft (and even if you say it can...I can't do it!)
12. Basically no Single player content that is enjoyable due to "2. Crap AI" and the ridiculous response of the enemy when attacked. Either carries on regardless and gets shot up or does amazing impossible rolls until it thinks you aren't following anymore....and repeats until either dead or escapes
