I try really hard to like the idea (I really do), BUT neg-g engine cut outs make me swear like I have tourettes - I'm going to have a hard enough time with them in Storm of War; it's only saving grace is it let's me fly Spitfires at high speed over the channel. All these bi-planes going "putt, putt, putt" no faster than a Piper Cherokee and then having the engine cutting out may be the death of me!!! Apart from that I'm looking forward to this

first thoughts??
BUY THIS FUCKIN GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
amazing, after some messing getting my controls setup, and sorting the trackir, i did a training mission, flying through rings, then i thought sod this and went onto a quick 1v1 dogfight, WOW!!!.
graphicly its fantastic, all the little things are there, the bloom effects like the sun shining off of wings and house roofs look amazing, the actual scenery is awesome and looks close to the film the red baron or blue max, get low down and it really is stunning, no more invisible trees, i am running almost maxed out GFX wise and getting 40fps, with some tweaking who knows it might go higher, but there is room to trun the GFX down and it will still look great.
flying is pretty hard, its so different from il2, in ROF obviously everything is slower, in my first dogfight it took me about ten minutes of swirling turns, diving and climbing to get behind the fokker, i pressed the trigger only to find no bullets spraying out, lol, i had forgotten to charge/cock the machine guns. the 6dof is amazing, so precise, you gotta see it to believe how good it is.
im off to play some more, so far im very very impressed and feel the wait was worth it, and a simulator has come along to take the place of il2.

yes, i think you ought to hoep, after playing for a few more hours last night, it really feels to me how it would feel flying these unstable, rickety and dangerous machines.
