like CsThor i've flown online(upto about 2005) and the reasons for no longer doing so are similar(ego driven jerks etc etc.)
yep i could enjoy some servers that were sometimes fun but for me they declined to the point they were rare, so i stopped 'banging my head against a brickwall' and carried on flying offline and actually enjoying myself:-P

What i find 'saddening' is the constant attempts by a vocal minority (20% fly online is one estimate http://www.simhq.com/_commentary/all_106e.html) to 'convert' offliners to their 'superior' way of playing. you create a sense an 'other'
CUI BONO?:confused:

imho enthusiasm is good, zealotry is bad;)


.... and now back to our usual transmission......

If Oleg doesnt appear today, there's nothing to say!

except that he still may be on holiday........

Rofl certainly I have better things to do than read this IL-2 Sturmovik Falls of Niagara thread again.

And I really don't care if there is 1000 German campaigns if none of them is included in initial release. I see you don't care either. However I am not a fanatical flight simmer. No German campaign means no IL-2 Sturmovik Falls of Niagara in my home 99% probability. I suck in flight sims enough to not fly online only as a free kill in Bf 109, not to speak how I see online furball circuses about as interesting as sniffing infantry grunt's socks after 40km march.

S!

Placed a pre-order of Collector's Edition on local game store. They will get it for me when released :) So now just sit and wait..

I have missed that. It would be weird Oleg releasing a BoB without a german campaign and patching it in. One would assume that building a campaign would not be the most time consuming task of the project.

If a person wanted to do some serious flying online that's where I would say to go also..Spits VS 109s. There aren't many idiots on that server.

Oh I prefer ZvsW to Spits VS 109s anytime.....you have next to never any early war maps there. It is all just late war orgies.....well who ever enjoys that.
And the nice thing there are next to no dweebfires on Zekes vs Wildcats

I love North Africa and 109F4s. I would be miserable in ZvsW , but some people think the desert is boring. Everyone is different. With an F4 you have a chance to be a real dogfighter :)

Well in 75% of the cases you will find me there in a Betty, one of my favorite planes. As with me planes have to have two engines, only exception is the George.
