Or talent.

To the Op, yes it's very good but it isn't everyone's cup of tea so definitely try before you buy. It's a shame really, because you've just missed the 50% off sale (and the ICE $9.99 sale), but they do come around every so often.

You'll find RoF has nice damage modelling - the result of a slight misjudgement while straffing vehicles:

You should buy whatever strikes you as interesting and fun.

If you enjoy it then its money well spent.

No one can answer the question whether or not that you will like it. Only you can answer that.

Some people hate broccoli and others crave it. But at the end of the day there is a substantial market for it regardless if I decide I don't.

With 6 billion people inhabiting our world, if half of them turned over their couch cushions and gave you a single penny that fell from someones pocket you would have over 15 million dollars. But if 10,000 people decided not to give you that penny you would not notice it.

Well, caved in and bought the ICE though i actually intended to buy the ultra upgrade containing all the planes. Oh, well... that's how it goes when shopping dead tired
To bad they don't have optional upgrade packs with planes.

well, now i need to find some engine management guides

I bought RoF when it was released and have bought later all the aditional planes and items.

I dont play it much, but I think that COD is a piece of "history of aviation" that has come to life in the form of a game. And that is worth supporting, even if I don´t play that much.

I know I have spend quite a few euros on that, but I know it will be waitnig for me until I have a "WWI era boost". Right now I am in a WWII phase.

IMHO, the must have trilogy is

ROF,COD and BMS

that covers pretty much all the "eras", but damm, I wish someone released a Vietnam era sim with the quality of the sims in my trilogy

This is a good place to start, the new RoF manual is very good...
