Have you played the game? I've flown at 22K in a Spitfire, I was just on a server with 25 guys for an hour without a hiccup.. had a blast. For any boxed release there is a feature cutoff day before going gold.. with LOT of fixes and development going on right now the later the Gold day the better the DVD will be. Personally I would expect an additional flyable or 2 in the Boxed release.. but everyone else would still get them via STEAM anyway..

No, I have never played the game.

All my negativity is because I don't like the box art and blame Ubisoft for deliberately forcing Oleg to release the box art early and with a funky anti dazzle coating which magically ripped all the fantastic missions and campaigns which he'd spent 6 years making in a shell prompt just for us.

You were on a server with 25 guys? in the 21 century? I bow down before your internet awesomeness. I never dreamt such things were possible.

I will now return my joysticks to the manufacturer as I'm obviously lacking in appreciation of the really real realness that is Clod.

He was on A SERVER!

Sweet Jesus...


Where's that patch?
I want to be disappointed even more than now.

Well Conio! (lol :P, the name not the ... hum :D)
Like people said before, Justflight. c o m it or wait for it! Personally I purchased it over just flight living in the USA, the game is definately playable, with bugs every now and then and depending on your hardware (apparently latest hardware is not necessarily the best atm, but will be eventually i'm sure).
If you got a quad core (above 2Ghz of frequency) with a descent graphics card (1GB of VRAM for the very least) and 4GB of ram, then you should be able to play it quite smoothly (in low/med settings)... If your comp is not as good as this then wait for it... cause you probably won't have anyfun playing it, just wait for further optimization.
But if your comp is equal or better you could be having fun with it like some people on this forum. (But fair warning... Most people posting here are unsatisfied, the happy ones are just enjoying it, some post comments.)
And lastly, If you buy the game for the Su 26, don't... They played a trick on us and did not implement it. Let's hope it is only temporary, but they avoid topics about it, nor did they ever released info on what happened to it.
Anyways guess it all comes down to how bad you want a boxed version :) have fun, and I hope my post helped you.

I've been putting up with the release pushbacks so I can get some work done, but enough is enough. Bought it through Just Flight, said I was in the USA, they told me to remove the game from the cart because I couldn't buy it, but I went ahead anyway. Got an activation code, put it on Steam, and it's downloading.

Need to cancel my steam preorder now too.

I dare not hope it'll run on this crappy laptop, but we'll see :)

Kaka, I take it you speak Spanish, if so yes, that is it but also "console input/output".

Regarding buying via jstflt etc. if we all do that, once the North America release comes out, the sales will be cero ;)

As for my machine, it is:
ASUS CG5290
I7 2.67GHz
9GB Ram
GTX260 1GB
Windows 7 64bits

Yeah pretty much. But not everybody will buy it online (only the impatient ones :D). And no, I do not speak spanish, though I did took it in highschool. But roughly I know what the first and most known meaning of conio is xD did not know about the second one! thanks for making me less dumb!

I got it from Justflight and have been having a great time with it. My buddy is waiting for his amazon order... Think he is gonna be waiting a long time. I keep sending him screen shots of damaged Stukas plummeting to their demise. He has resorted to threatening me with bodily harm! :eek:

lmao :mrgreen:

They delay is a dead cert, the latest patch does nothing to help imho. Its still not fit for retail release.
