It would be nice if the game was actually released.

It is just gold now guys.

Some of us do have gold copies of the game but we have had them all of 12 hours now, give us some time.

On my Xmas list, Just bought Call Of Duty so wife won't let me by it...  Based on teh demo, it'll be a winner in my book!!!  Now if Longbow 3 would ever materialize, I'd die a happy man...

It's hard!  I downloaded the demo (I just got a trackir, and I wanted to try a game that supported it), and the graphics are beautiful, but I can't stay alive for more then a minute.

If I fly the Mig-29 scenario, I try to follow the mirage and exceed maximum angle of attack.  If I try to boom & zoom, I get a missile up my tailpipe immediately.  In the A-10 scenario, the dang shilka eats my lunch unless I feed it a steady diet of flares & chaff.

I'll learn, I just need to practice.  I'm gonna get it for sure, pretty amazing looking.

Now that I have the trackir, I sure wish AH had native TrackIR  support....

I regret doing business with TD Computer Systems.

Little too rich for my blood, but I've heard nothing but rave reviews ... adds more immersion than rudder pedals.

Cya Up!
