I hope that Santa delivers it for you - you deserve it

One slight problem i find is that when i get back in an FSX plane is that i keep expecting to be shot out of the sky! Always watching me 6!

I tried the demo couldn't work it. Had to remove the demo download file in Safe Mode? Kept saying It was busy?

I have looked for it every time I walk in Wally World, but to no avail. I, too, am dropping hints.

I think as RoF catches on, it is going to need a separate corner in the Outhouse.

Beautiful screen gajit.

Doesn't look good for you Gajit Not one you might have walked away from.

I'm doing another career ... I've bought all the latest expansion stuff and am running the latest patch ...

I have yet to see any tripes ... Lots of other boggies though. Out of 8 missions so far, I've only had one failure to complete.

By far an outstanding sim.

I have been reading up on this and sure looks to be a lot of fun. Adding to Christmas list as well. Until I will just

wait.

I've just installed Over Flanders Fields Phase 3. A lot more planes than in RoF, thousands of a/c skins, more gameplay possibilities, also great graphics (although no grass moving in the wind on the airfield), etc. The demo of RoF convinced me that this was not the game for me instead of winning me over.

And again...

As I doubt I'll be any better in the Camel than I am in the SE.5a, I see little point in getting any more aircraft to die in right now.

As much a I love Rise of Flight, I'm really, really, bad at it!

gajit · December 3rd, 2009, 10:25

So am I Ian.

Wounded (see bullet holes) but got down without crashing this time.

***IanP*** · December 3rd, 2009, 11:15

Oh, I'm very, very, VERY good at forced landings without power... Those I can do. I get plenty of practice!

gajit · December 3rd, 2009, 11:19

LOL - at the moment the enemy always seems faster and more manoverable and more indistructable than me!!

Very tempted to get this sim...one question though. Does it require being actively connected to the internet? I'm building another PC and don't want any internet connection on it.

I had my first aerial combat several nights ago - got two down before I had to land with engine damage. I was flying the Nieuport at the time, and it was extremely tiresome to have to combat the tendancy for the aircraft to go into a spin, while trying to out-turn the opponent at the same time. A little later I was able to get four down, before again my engine was damaged due to a mid-air, though upon landing my gear must have hit a bump in the field, as the whole thing flipped over on its back. So I became an ace in a night, but didn't live to talk to about it. Beyond always flying in circles, as advised by the experts, I even got the chance to do some 'rolling scissor' maneuvers which ended up working in my favor.

Kilo Delta, it does require an internet connection. Every time you start the game, it automatically checks for updates online, and you must 'log in' before going to do any flying, whether single player or multi-player.
