RoF was realeased with few stuff but with a solid engine. CloD is broken all around.

I vividly remember a lot of gripes about unacceptable framerates, stability problems and a generally rough running of the game but then this discussion is somewhat academic. Let's end it here, shall we?

Nobody is saying it was plain sailing Thor, far from it. There were CTD problems for some users too but not to the extent of.....Nah, Nevermind. I'm going to heed your wise advice and stop, because there is no real point. I support both sims and wish them well.

Had to have my little rant though, feel better now.

Cheers.

ROF can be downloaded, But as far as I could see you'll need to buy one of the appropriate aircaft to fly the new career modes.

If you can use this mode with the default plane set please tell me how.

ROF was unflyable on my machine when it first came out. I needed to upgrade to a quad core and modern graphics to make it fly at a reasonable frame rate. But if your into WWI aircaft it's as good as it gets at the moment!

Cheers

Use the date/ year sliders at the top of the career start screen to select a later date. Select a squadron flying one of the default planes. Go fly.

Easy as that.

Oh! I tried but I guess I didn't far enough forward. Luckly I already had a Endercker so I could start the german campaign.

It won't be too long before you run into a problem there I'm afraid mate. By late 1916/ early 1917 I think all the Jastas have changed over to Albatros DII and DIII's. When you get to that point you will most likely get an error message saying you don't own that plane.

I'm not sure what planes the free to play download has (is it the Spad XIII and Albatros DVa?)

I haven't checked the availablity of the DVa on the German side but I think you'll find the Spad XIII in French and US squadrons from about mid/late 1918.

BTW out of curiosity - is the new campaign mode still linked to their "online for offline" anti-piracy scheme?

The new campaign cannot be played offline. You need to 'login online' as opposed to 'login offline' (?!?!) Yeah, don't get me started on the whole 'online' thing in ROF, the primary reason I never got it when it came out. It's still far too dependent on an internet connection, but that is just my opinion. It's an excellent sim.

Too bad.
