XNachoX your right- in way- about the addons. The A-1 when it was first released was a dog. Its been imrpoved like 5 times now. Have you tried the F-86? Its the best F-86 I've ever seen. Oh ya- there's this guy Mitch ..I think he's a pro. art dude in real life. Look at his Hi-res skins. The best I've ever seen in any SIM including FB's.

I'll check out the F-86. ArmourDave released the F-105 with no real FM either...made me mad as it's a great airplane. I'll re-install the game and check out the new stuff. S!

They did that for a reasion. They have been working on this game since late 00. There hope is to add on as they go. Lets keep in mind they made no secret about the game being unfinished. They say that on the web page. Also its not a 49$ game. Like some other un-finished games that I will lean un-named. Its 15$ at the store, there will be a 2nd patch out with-in a few days give or take. That should fix alot of the problems. I love this game, maybe even more so than AH

The sense of Speed is Amazing too. Being on the Deck at 500 mph is so much fun in that game. TK's (the developer) vision of having a sim that wouldn't be bogged down w/ avionics details but with good flight models and complete modability is going to be a winner if he gets the MP fixed w/ this new patch. I've had a lot of fun with the offline campain but w/ the bugs I've shelved it for now. But w/ the second patch- I may put down FB's and AH for a long time.

Links can be found at http://www.thirdwire.com
BTW AKIron, you got one more kill than I do. I mostly fly close air support missions. I like pushing mud rather than killing planes.

This sim is a nice 20$ dust collector. Nothing more, nothing less.

)

It was on sale at BestBuy for 20$ (so it was 20$). I only enjoy doing AA combat but due to "great" effects in this game its impossible to do so. There is a majic distance at which game turns off visual model of the enemy aircraft so they just disapear right in front of you. With out using visual aid (icons) I can't fight anything in close fight, each time I extand from a fight to gain adventage, bloody game turns off enemy model and ...........................we ll I can't see them.

After first patch I didn't see any changes, TK promosed new patch about 2 months ago. I still don't have it.

I'm not going to waist my time with POS game that is half bellybutton made.

Didn't see any changes after 1st patch???? There were a number of big changes including a number of effects that were added. There are two big moding projects going on right now. First- Korean War -including a sweet looking B29 (already done: F86, A-1, P-51(mishaped nose) and Mig-15). + a great looking Vietnam mod. Oh ya- and a cool looking Cuban Missle crises Mod. If they materalize + the 2nd patch makes it- LOOK OUT!!!

Adding special effects isn't fixing broken software. And I hate open software. Any joe can add what ever FM they want.

(You will not see any MS sims on my system for that reason)

MoMoney · « **Reply #29 on:** June 02, 2003, 11:09:44 AM »

Ya.."any Joe" but you don't have to download any Joe's FM's. If your refering to Online play- StrikeFighters has a file checking system to insure everyone is on the same playing field. I'd rather play with "any Joe" than with the World According to Oleg -I'm from a society known for being honest- Maddox. I still don't know why the VVS even bothered upgrading from I16's in the war...lol...(after playing IL2)
