Customer Reviews:
Worth every penny, 2008-08-20 Well, I've been flying on the PC since the monochrome days and I haven't seen a simulator with AI as smart as those seen in IL-2 Sturmovik 1946.
The little buggers are harder to shoot down then any other simulator I have owned. As soon as one of the rounds from your plane fly past them they take evasive action. They just don't jink either !! !
I have TRACKIR 4 Pro/Track Clip Pro and IL 2 works perfectly with it/them.
I have owned and still own quite a few sims:
ATF Gold (Jane's) Fighters Anthology (Jane's) World War II Fighters (Jane's) Longbow 2 (Jane's) F15 (Jane's) F/A-18 (Jane's) FS2004 (with every add-on you can think of) FSX (A huge disappointment) Falcon 4.0 Allied Force
I will also agree, Sturmovik is a simulator and not a game. The physics are awesome! ( pretty convincing) ATF Gold and Fighters Anthology are games as far as I am concerned simply because their flight physics are much to be desired.
I will enjoy Sturmovik for years to come. :D And I am sure you will too.
I am 40 y/o btw. Does it matter? Yes. You can answer the "Why?"
See yuh, Gotta Fly!
