Since 2001. I gave up when Pacific fighters came out as I was uninterested in that theatre and the jungle and desert maps were ridiculous. The best time I ever had was just before Forgotten Battles came out and we did 109 versus P39 fighter sweeps. The P39 could out climb the 109 at speed and it was a good fight. When FB came out suddenly aircraft all became weightless and I do remember trying to land a 109 and flaring for what seemed ages landing in a field past the runway.
After FB came out I remember always waiting for the patch that would fix the sily FM issues we had. Lack of energy bleed and red aircraft that hung on the prop still shooting with accuracy. I got tired of waiting for the nex t'fix it all patch' and moved on to combat missions and aother games.
