As you can see with my system specs; I had a hard time, the game was just very jerky when I ran the battle, in the training it didnt have a problem. Now I'm just waiting for the full version and I will be building a new High end System.

Looks a little dated now, sounds could be improved. Seems like a great game under the hood and by far the best in a long time.

THANKS BFC I will say this; this game has been a pain in my arse since I set eyes on it in 98.
With that I have dubbed this product a demon and a curse, I hope you all at BFC have a great continued success and many more games like this one.Thank you for turning this game around.

<a href="http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html" target="_blank">you need to update your ati drivers
to 7.3 </a>also you might want to turn off your virtual paging as this sometimes interfears with software running.

Im loving the game in fact I even find it even more fun especialy when I can pick the ammo and fire the grenades also.
Is there smoke for cover?
I find the mouse a little hard to get used too.
The load time though 1:15 seconds alittle to long to load. Think that needs tweeking.
Sound, they sound a little muffeled.

Anything that makes me think hard.
I believe women don’t understand the art of gaming they think we just veg out on this stuff. I tell my wife all the time, just like when you veg out on your harlequin romance books?
“She states at least I’m using my brain”
Those comment I just stare at her and replied you got to be kidding me?
I’m not using my brain I’m just playing a game comment from her.
She’s killing me guys.
Women here the word game and think mindless, useless not brain involving.
Don’t figure?!

Rune your not the only one Im haveing problems with it on xp it doesnt shut down all the way. sure all the bells and whistles turn off and your looking at the desktop, but when I looked at the task manager the il2.exe was still there whats up with that? Mcafee was goin nuts I think they through something in this game thats spy ware?Originally posted by rune:I warn you, IL2 1946 can be a pain to run under Vista, while some people have gotten it to run, I still have not had a successful install. Yeah, I know NOT to run the setup, you have to run the command a, but once installed it still it will run. *Sigh*

How about Games For Windows?Originally posted by Moon:Guys, preview code went out to a few selected guys (simhq, armchair general, wargamer to name a few) only yesterday. The mass market websites didn't even get any yet. And these guys need to play, and then write up their previews. It will take some time before you see anything out there.

Don't you wish they had a pause button during a real combat action?
I love RTS games you have to think fast and react fast.
-
I defianatly agree with that!Originally posted by CBR:Hell it even has its own entry on Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_tactics
I just wish game developers had the guts to use the term some more, to differentiate games like this from the standard RTS genre.

no sabot round have explosives on them depends what type.Originally posted by iplaygames2:Fan-freaking-tastic!
Is that a 2nd entrance hole on the front of the tank?
Quick question: would the 'miss' shells really blacken the terrain around the tank like in the pics? I mean, I understand they would kick up a certain amount of dirt when they hit the ground, but would they explode on impact with dirt like that? I guess HE rounds would, but what about AP? Pretty sure Sabot rounds don't explode at all.

It's ok I thought it was funny that's why I posted with the English professors.
-
As I can see we have some English professors in here and I better elaborate before they call the EPA on me?!
Can the infantry dig their own trenches or is it only added in the map?
Can the infants build trenches? I'm assuming no due to the fact they can’t enter buildings?

Can the infants build trenchs I'm asuming no due to the factthey cant enter buildings.

I guess you havent played heros of world war II.Same game engine same people.1st generation.Originally posted by TymK:I'm also having a great time with FoW, I actually discovered the title by lurking in this forum (it came up in one of the 'similar games' threads).
While the 'vanilla' game is fun but highly unrealistic, it provides amazing opportunities for modding (I am actually addicted to it now...). There is an official map/mission editor (very advanced), and all property files for individual weapons and items are editable. You can add realistic muzzle velocities, ranges and rates of fire, modify weapon accuracy, magazine capacities, ammo types, etc. The engine handles that very well, although some of the default missions become unplayable with realistic engagement ranges.
Even with these modifications, it's not as realistic as ToW is shaping to be. However, it does have a few very strong points. Apart from excellent graphics, it has a very decent physics engine (all buildings are destructible, terrain deformation is supported, high-velocity AP rounds go through thinner walls, etc). Plus, it is leaps and bounds ahead of anything I have seen in terms of the use of cover. Soldiers can hide or kneel behind any type of cover: every wall (also inside buildings), rock, vehicle, wreck (either predefined or placed 'dynamically' when a vehicle is KO'd), even fallen trees and larger pieces of rubble from buidings destroyed during gameplay.
And I have had a very similar impression of CoH, despite all the hype it brings nothing new to the genre.

STOP posting you kidding me right?!
I would like to see if you can upload shots of any ambush's like showing the gun piece hidden in the bush's.
