I've owned IL-2 1946 since November 2008. I don't play it much now because the picture is distorted because of my monitor.

Honestly, play 1946 if you want realism. If you want fun, play BoP.

Maybe realism is fun for you. For me, usually I just don't want to worry about setting the right fuel mixture, prop. pitch, radiator settings.

I also don't want to spend an hour flying to a target just so that I can drop my load of 2 bombs and then spend another hour flying back to base... It's authentic, but boring.

yeah. I can see all over this forum how fun it is!

You don't HAVE to do any of those things in 1946 if you dont want to. All of those options are there if you want them, but you can turn them off or speed up time if you like. Please dont trash an extremely well made game in defense of this one. None of the points you tried to make are valid.

And for those that are still playing 1946 make sure you check out all the mods that have been made available, you can find them here;

They have very strict rules in order to prevent any unrealistic A/C or weapons. There is a Korean conflict that has made the Sabre and Mig 15 available and are currently developing a WW1 mod not to mention the insane amount added to the WW2 aspect.

Cheers!
