    Combat Flight Sims

    Which one's are still being played then? I'm guessing some of you still play IL-2, what about Lock On?

    I wanna get back in the air, MMO's are getting a little boring now, so wanna play something else, and I dusted off my stick last night but was too tired to actually fly. Anyway, I bet both IL-2 and Lock On have been updated by even newer versions now...

    /me goes back to remembering the days of formation flying in Lock On with a few other people from here, was good fun.

    If cars had followed the same developmental path as computers, a Rolls Royce would cost £60, get a million miles per gallon and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.

    I never quite got LOMAC ....was beyond my brain to deal with IL2/Forgotten Battles/Pacific Fighters and now PE-2 add ons...but that's cos I'm old!

    I love my MMO's, but still return, weekly, to IL2 becasue it is a great great leveler. No matter how good you think your plane is, if you're cack...you die. In LIneage 2 once you'r uber, you're uber!

    LOMAC is a bit too difficult to play from a desktop imo - fb/il2's beauty is it's apparent simplicity

    took me three years

    seriously though......shooting stuff should involve the pilots ability to point the plane, not use a PDA !

    well, dear chap, you should go find £10 for the complete Forgotten Battles/Aces Expansion/Pacific Fighters DVD that's in PC World , and then a further 15 for the PE addon.

    That 25 will pay you in pleasure, pain, misery, and excultation...you mark my words

    Then grab Hyperlobby and go get shot down :/
