Great Flight Simulation, Heavy Aircraft Bias |
This simulator is perhaps one of the most realistic simulators I have experienced on any given PC. I find that the sense of movement goes along way to imparting a sense of actually flying to the virtual pilot. In addition the rendering of the aircraft is beautiful.
The one glaring flaw is an apparent bias in favor of all things Russian, specifically the aircraft. Not only are their more Soviet aircraft, but more irritating is the performance edge they all seem to have against the best U.S. fighters. I have over 330 hours in a NA P-51D and I can assure the reader that this edge is purely imagined. Of course if one looks at the IL-2 game developers it becomes apparent that the vast majority are themselves Russians, and thus perhaps this bias is somewhat understandable, however nauseating at times. Since when does a Yak-3 out dive a Mustang? Luckily I have not had an elevator depart the airframe in a dive approaching 500 mph (in the real P-51), yet this has happened in IL-2.
Have fun, but take the aircraft performance with a grain of salt. |

I was skeptical at first when deciding to purchase IL2 forgotten Battles for my PC. However now I agree that this game far exceeds my expectations! Compared to my other sims by Microsoft, IL2 is far more superior in grafics, realism and overall enjoyment. Am looking foward to playing next version of this game or something as comparable. I will continue to search Americancivilwar for new games of this genre. Americancivilwar's handling of my purchase was quite "nice". |
