Because its not a matter of hardware, its a matter of glaring errors and omissions.

I also have a modest system and can enjoy it online. I just came back from an online session at ATAG, after 20 minutes inflight in my ju-88 I was just reaching the English coastline to take out the supply depot. I was so excited since it was my first online raid in a ju-88, just as I started to get a visible on the target I got the dreaded launcher crash, if my girlfriend and baby daughter wouldn't have been asleep a lot of foul and harsh language would have ensued. I'm just sticking to offline now, my time is too valuable, I only have time to play late at night and 20 lost minutes is a lot for me.:(

Wow bummer! I've yet to have one of those on-line, give a shout out if you see me, for an escort.

I don't get a lot of CTD's or launcher crashes but they always come at the worst possible moment it seems.:):( Yes! I could use an escort on those missions from Tramecourt, an irritating spit tried to take my Br.20 down last night, took out two of my gunners but I made it back to French soil.:grin:

Later last night we really beat the Brits like a red headed step child.
Thanks to awesome power of the Ju-88 and Bf-110 and great help from Bf-109 pilots going in front and dragging the RAF low (Thank you Tonka!http://www.ccpcreations.com/smilies/bow.gif), all targetrs went down in just over an hour.
Pure blitzkrieg.:twisted:


After RAF pilots signed the surrender papers, we made them wash our bombers and play Luftwaffe Marches. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...s/mockface.gif

That must have been after 56RAF left :P
We hacked down quite a few 109s and Do17s.

Is it politically correct to say "we really beat the Brits like a red headed step child".

My daughter is red headed though not a step child. She wants to know if you play WoW or LOTRO etc., so she can hunt you down and show you what a red headed child can do.

Be afraid!

Between red headed step childs, Blitzkrieg and Br20's it sounds like you guys were having fun:grin:

I believe we got our own back in the next mission :)

And I seem to recall a 110 that had its wing blown off from a 1/4 second burst of Spitfire .303s :twisted:

$@*&^)$&@)*$ :lol::lol:

That was quite a shock. I just saw a big fireball and my wing was gone.:o I was like: WTF? HAX!!:lol:

It was a long swim back to france.:mrgreen:
Your Blenheims did a great job. Got all the ships in one pass. Very impressive.:)

Just before we got the final target, I was lining up on another 110 near Boulogne. Just about to give him a squirt and CTD >:(

It's funny how some nights the game is an absolute joy to play and other nights you want to uninstall and flail your arms like a demented octopus. Not even talking about the CTDs here.

I think I definitely enjoy the game a LOT more when people are taking care of objectives rather than just looking for prey. For that reason I almost always exclusively do escort work for the bombers now or patrol our objectives in defense.
