32 person limit? Hell, I'll fly the CT in that case!

Actually, your example would be considered "humanitarian aid".

Not in my case...Several years ago, I and several of my co-workers came down with serious cases of food poisoning thanks to lunch at our local Wendy's.

Fear the Mayo...

I bought 2 chicken sandwiches, walked home with them, bit into them,... and found a piece of the 'bread tag' from the bag of buns in each one.....

In my ultimate flightsim online gaming wisdom, I thought dedicated meant that they provided better bandwidth or something for your coop missions. However when I tried it today, it’s actually like a MA. I didn’t know that.

It worked fantastic for the few minutes I tried, until I got dumped from it for some reason, but crappy map/knee board aside, it was graphically like AH 3.8 or something. If this is what online play holds for the future, wow. Very cool. (Im guessing it will pry suck for connections till they sort it out though, but they did fix my studder with the last patch, so anything is possible. If they get it stable as Hyperlobby play, it’s a huge, free feature update.)

Thanks for the heads up, interesting indeed.

I see some contridictions or at least some further effort to explain what it means in this statement, "IL2 Now has Dedicated OC3 servers up."

1) They have one OC3, dedicated to the servers? Uhmmm,..no multi-homed backbone when outages occur?

2) Do the IL2 servers have exclusive use of this OC3?

3) How many servers, supporting a total of how many clients?

All for free?

Let's see, the last time I checked, a dedicated OC3 to a reasonable ISP ran about $60,000.00 (U.S.) per month. Business must be booming at Maddox.
Must be nice to have that type of sustained revenue laying around to spend
