Yet you are here making your point, but you don't have any personal experience yourself.

Did Christ buy it, I don't know, but I know I did (Also received a collectors edition copy from UBI) after a framed and signed IL2 poster I won from them was damaged in the post.

So I do think I have experiance, Steam says so with the 300+ hours logged.
Also approx half of my Squad (Tangmere Pilots) have it and have spent many hours flying.

Don't get me wrong, we like the game but we can't fly it as it says on the box.

So why did you say that you all nearly bought it? That implies that none of you did. You should've said "We all bought it but it was rubbish and went back to 1946" - That I can understand.......

Anyway, I think you should be more interested in the previous post I made to you, not this one.

PS, Tell Hatter that he can laugh at the mighty Palace now but the Tesco queenies are suffering and will soon be far below us

@Tom, I don't disagree with what you wrote, it just wasn't the right answer for what your replyee (is that a word?) was suggesting.

Temp off, 290mph @ 11lbs - great - 20mph too slow is better than 40mph too slow, and especially since the 109 is n too slow. If all of the tests come out similarly we should ease up on the 'full switch' concept.

Snapper just ran a quick test with the Hurri 100oct and got a 10mph improvement, but it was just a quick test. And I agree completely re 'full switch'.

FM whining killing the fun of the game for all pilots.
Can you add that to the poll??

Honestly, there is not much point in discussing FM performance when most only pick and choose what they think is the best for this "red vs blue" crap.

This "red vs blue" is toxic.

FWIW....

You guys sound like real airplane owners complaining that their airplane won't meet manufacturers specs for performance.

Remember, those performance are based on a standard day AND correct operation of the aircraft systems.

It might help to see how the AI is working the engine.

You should see the same performance if the system is operated the same as the AI.

Honestly? Well it's a good job you're around to tell us these things.

Well here's a thought. It wasn't any AI which controlled the aircraft in any of the test data available, it was a human being. Consequently a Human being ought to get the same performance from the aircraft modelled in the game.

The limited tests performed so far seem to indicate that this is not the case, and some error in the game's temperature management systems are robbing the aircraft of performance when temperature effects are enabled.

This may also be the case for any aircraft in the simulator, and I eagerly await tests results from others who know how to get the best from other aircraft modelled in the game.

Osprey,
I said we nearly all bought it, implying just that, that nearly all the squad got it in anticipation of flying coops, not that we thought about it and then changed our minds.

I also said that mission building to me is harder than turning base metals into gold but I am sure you ment well posting it, many thanks.

Well fine, but that is not clear at all, the meaning is different. You really mean that most of you bought it and were disappointed with the lack of co-ops.

However your main point was that there is no co-op, not that you aren't an FMB user. I stated that there is, and it works in the same way, it's just not provided by 1C but rather 41Sqn_Banks. Did you not specify that you have someone capable of building missions? If so then what's really stopping you guys?

I think constant disappointment in the game has stopped us at this time mate, peeps tried for ages to get it working, but with performance issues and other 'assorted' issues it was decided to put it back onto the shelf until/if it is ever sorted.
I don't think this was an easy choice, but the head sheds had to take into account that not everyone could afford some of the upgrades needed to get decent performance etc (taking into account the req specs on the tin) and that we could (at this time) continue with 1946 until such a time comes around.

BTW, next time your on comms with Nitrous (Queeney) say hello for me
