Being able to drop out and rejoin or change planes mid game really makes it perfect.
Suggest anyone who misses BOP to check if their PC laptop can run WOP. I was running it super smooth high graphics on a fairly cheap 13" laptop
Wow all those features sound just like BOS except with BOS you dont have to worry about if your computer can handle the game. Arn't consols grand

BOS fly's completely different, games are short, full of spawn campers and no TB or dogfight I prefer bop style better myself I tried to like bos just didn't do it for me

LOL nice one Wookie. Short and sweet.
I have to say you're a bit harsh there man but that's your opinion and you are perfectly entitled to it.
For sure there are SERIOUS issues which need to be addressed with the game.
Amazing how the devs were able to jump in a split second to address an issue which concerned THEM but have give little or in fact no response to the issues in which the community and forum members have. Stunning to say the least.
Hopefully if or when BoS is patched it'll be right.
We'll wait and see what happens.

I just went and got a new gaming desktop for WOP so I'll be on there soon Guess that shows my level of obsession with il2 to spend that much for 1 game lol I sent you a friend request on steam dk and I laughed my ass of at your comment about BOS completely true lol

Got your request and added Mav. I will be on about 1pm uk time today for a couple of hours before footy starts.
Oh and one feature in WOP not in BOP or BOS, 32 player games

So I got my new computer all hooked up downloaded WOP and HDMI'd it to my tv new comp is awesome I run WOP on maxed out settings. Then I got it hooked up so I used my ps3 controller with it and got that all mapped out and I like it all lot feels almost the same as bop. It's gonna take a little getting used to the planes seem slightly more ....shaky I guess kinda like the rudder has a little more effect? I'll mess with the settings a little more tonight. I did find its a little bit harder to aim but nothing like bos. Im still figuring a few things out but so far it's awesome although I don't like the axis v allies thing in tb it seems host always picks la7 and so far every axis plane I have tried is no match for it but dogfight is awesome I have Sunday Monday off so I'll be on a lot then. Have you played cliffs of Dover or world of planes?

Not played cliffs of Dover or world of planes yet. There is a ubisoft sale on steam at moment so I am hoping cliffs of Dover will come down in price today. It's 33% off at mo but could end up 75% off.

There are a few playing mostly around 2200 to 0200 GMT or there abouts.

Come play. It's a lot of fun and very friendly on the microphones.
