ATAG is a good server

Can't say about ground targets.

Very poor, no real advances IMHO (now ducking behind a parapet and waiting for the usual suspects)

Not if you fly RAF, can't speak for blue (but then again, I have never flown a real Spit, Hurri or 109)

Don't understand the question

The recent beta patches have improved the performance of the game and got rid of the crash to desktops for most, unfortunately the beta patches have also tweeked the RAF FM for the worst

.

1. ATAG is a good server, JG27 host campaigns now and again.

2. ATAG host missions with ground targets, ships and airfield etc...

3. Personally I am enjoying the game, that said not enough people play and the lack of things that we were expecting such as a decent weather system is quite annoying. But like I said online is good fun, suggest you get on teamspeak.

4. Like Kristof said RAF FM's are porked which is the main reason we are down in numbers atm...

5. Not sure what you are getting at.

Its worth a try to see what performance is like I try and jump in a blenheim and bomb a target when I have the time.

Thx Gents for reply, keep them coming thx

My last question,
"5. Dos the sound, grapichs, handle off the Aircraft up to speed "
Were ment to ask if, there is no big fault in the Sound, Grapichs engies and that the FM for both sides are correct...

Yes it is!, about the question, yes, i think yes, there is alot of new sounds, they are not new, but you can hear them from other aircraft, and in ground like explosions, you need to try it on your own, there are new tracers, VERY GOOD increment in FPS and a good gameplay on a afternoon on the ATAG server, Salute!

I'd say no, in all honestly. Despite still playing the game most days.

You ask about FM for both sides being correct- well, they couldn't be more wrong actually. Let's not get started there...

Basically, while some things have been made 'more right', other things have been completely taken away or made worse. In fact they still haven't passed BOB 101- Spitfires are faster than Hurricanes.

Aside from the actual stability of the game (crashing, stuttering, etc.) the game is in a very poor state still.

1C have pretty much declared that they won't fix the game. Instead, you'll have to pay for a sequel.

Yes, it is worth getting back to.

As in the same way bumping into a girlfriend from the past when she's drunk...

honestly, like all the other il2 games, sequels are really just expantion packs, so if you bought cliffs, u'll still have cliffs, plus BoM and all the fixes included with it... its not as if you just tossed 60$ down the drain...

you wouldn't play pacific fighters standalone now that 1946 is out, but since pacific fighters came out before 1946 i bet you bought it anyway.

so i would say play cliffs as much as you can, get used to the physics engine, like a head start to the rest of the game as it gets released.
