Ive got it today, and boy is it hard! I'm trying to fly the Dr.1 but being my first WW1 sim, it's like starting from scratch. I can't aim very well because there's no crosshairs, but I've read that the aiming point is just under the crossing wires. I've been trying against the AI (I've yet to play MP) and I can't seem to shoot down anything. I tried dueling a novice AI Gotha bomber and all I do is make holes, while I get shot down in flames in a couple of bursts.
I'm running at 1072x740(I can't remember the exact res, but something like that) on medium settings with a radeon 5570 and core 2 duo at 2.8Ghz. It runs smooth enough but gets laggy if I crank it up to high and with a higher resolution. The game still looks great though.
I've read guides that told me to aim for the engine or pilot, but it's quite hard when I'm on their 6 and all I hit is fuselage and wings. Head ons are risky but it's still my 1st day so I'm trying to learn. Does anyone have helpful tips and hints I could use? I'm using a V1 Cyborg joystick too, but nothing else. Though it looks like TrackIr might help a ton cause it's hard using just the view button on the joystick, and if it wasn't for the red arrows, I probably would be toast.
