Well Vonrd and I flew it around some last night. There are some noticeable improvements, mainly with the eye candy. The 109 seems to fly a lot better at altitude (5-6k). You really have to watch your engine temps, more so than before!!!! The audio, I think anyways, is much improved. Now the problems....in MP, when you spawn out of an aircraft, the aircraft remains on the field (even hitting escape, then the flag to leave the aircraft) right where you left it. So if you collapse the gear on landing, your busted plane remains in the middle of the runway. Another bug they couldn't, wouldn't, haven't fixed yet is the bouncing and flipping around if you crash land. The 109 autoprop is still not fixed. You still have to play games with it to get it working correctly. There is something wrong with the ground handling of the 109 on T/O and Landing. Taxi is kinda ok, but my tail-wheel lock didn't seem to work (not really sure the E-4B/N even has a tail-wheel lock, or my key binding could be wrong - "Tail Skid Lock"???) On T/O the aircraft will porpoise bounce kinda like the gear is just solid sticks w/o shocks of any sort. On 15 T/Os 14 of them did this porpoise bounce and it felt like I was going to jam the gear up through the wings. Landing bounce is the same thing. During this bouncing, the aircraft is barely controllable, in regards to the landing bounce, even adding power after the initial bounce did nothing for controllability. In regards to British aircraft, I attempted the Beaufighter, while Vonrd tried the Beaufighter, Spit and Hurricane and couldn't even get them airborne. I couldn't even taxi the Beaufighter, even using differential power. (This could simply be a "Gotta watch a video thing"). I did say that I would give the game a fair shake when it released. Do I think the game is better than what we had? Yes. I dont think I have purchased a game on initial release that hasn't needed a patch or 50. So I would say its a very good start. I would like to get together with several members of the squadron so we can fly around, compare notes. Some of what I am experiencing could simply be joystick sensitivities, or even I may be forgetting a checklist item when I'm configuring the airplane for T/O and/or landing.

Butzzell and I have talked several times about what FIF could be if only they made the game 64 bit and updated the game engine and editor.

Yeah, I'm hoping that we will have some pretty epic tank battles in the tourney. Though they will initially be only T-34s vs PZ IIIs, the tank add-on, if it combines nicely with the flying, will add that something extra thats been missing. I also noticed the Zis - 72, and the Sdkfz - 38 in the line up. Those are AAA guns, so we could have player-controlled AAA guns.

I am super stoked about this. The tanks are AWESOME (allows me to long-term plan for my tournament writing, adding more balanced tank battles). The P-38L??? AWESOME!!!! I do hope they add in B-17s if anything as AI, so we can create bomber intercepts (but unless they fix the resource problems with large aircraft and bombers, that will be just a dream). It's disappointing that the B-25 is planned as AI only. In regards to the WWI stuff, I'm happy to see they are going to do something with it, unfortunately, it looks like they're going to use the same marketing strategy they are using with the WW2 stuff, put out a section, charge $70 for it, then put out the next section, charge $70 for it ect... the 100km x 100km (or 10 by 10 grid) is SUPER disappointing. Currently the 10 by 10 grids in BoX is used ONLY for air to air engagements. Now I do understand that the speeds between the eras are significant, but still..... Now back to the tanks, that is AWESOME news for my tournament. Opening more vehicles to players is something I was hoping they would do.

Still have the #4 slot open in 3rd flight 5th Staffel.

Lol, my thoughts exactly.

Must be the 960 just not cutting it anymore. My new computer has a 1060 in it, and I haven't tried full shadows yet. If you can snag a 1080, I'll bet that would do the trick

Hmmm, I'm not having any of those issues yet. I've been dealing with an internet issue since the last windows update, but its something the cable company knows about. The update killed the current IP addresses of the win 10 computers, and the computer has issues creating new ones

Yeah Barton, you have a metal to win!!!!

Wait, is the fps hit with HUD just Oculus or with the game in general?
