Furbs! You might want to check the validity of this statement.

I can't remember any recent 'free' patches that were'nt tied in to paid downloadable content. This is due to their marketing decision. And even that isn't almost monthly.

Some people might get excited about dangling streamers off their stringers but I am not one of them. If it was authentic then for my eighty plus dollars I would expect it to come with the sim. It is a pitty that after a several years ROF can't even fix their trees!

ROF is good for a laugh but I haven't even firered her up to check the last pre-paid aircaft I bought. COD is too immersive.

Hmm, isn't every new aircraft free to all users, to fly with or against as AI or online allies and opponents? It's only the cockpits that they sell.

How can it be classed as free?

It's distributed to MY PC, at MY cost, wether I want it or not just so they can sell their add-on. In fact I am blackmailed into downloading it. If I don’t download the patch ROF becomes non-functional and I am not allowed to run the software I purchased.

Nothing in this world is free, if someone tells you that, they’re lying!

Sorry for taking this thread off topic, lets get back to the update.

Thanks B6!

It's rubbish when you go online. Everyone gets on teamspeak. Well Duh??? Flyers in WWI didn't have comms.

I'm all for realism, but radio comms in a first world war game?

Pfffft.

That's a valid point.

On the other hand I tried ROF online and it was quite pleasant and smooth, graphically wise.
