Then came the long-awaited successor Cliffs of Dover and had to be measured with the almost perfect predecessor. Fatal, absolutely fatal to publish a game that was not fully developed at the time, today we know that there were tight deadlines and delay for the developer was not possible.
The game was not playable in the original state, burdened extremely hardware but did make the difference between Arcade and Simulation also sensational graphics and several features with the.
Today after the last official patch and between various beta patch that looks different. Crashes are a thing of the past, if you call a modern computer its own. Win7 / 64 is, in principle, duty min. 4GB Ram also, the CPU is not really the decisive but certainly the GPU (graphics). Cards as a 560Ti are the minimum if you want to play smoothly with 1920/1080, while medium Settings wants to use, and even then the card should better bring more than 1GB memory.
Cliffs of Dover scores with a very complex damage model, really good graphics, hammer sound, very many opportunities to prove knobs and dials, and we ask that if you play a 100% level of difficulty. Simply turn on airplane by pressing a button and fly is no longer possible, fuel cocks want to be served, the throttle must be placed among others in the proper position for starting a cold engine and when the engine is running once it requires a little patience to oil and cooling water are warm enough to be able to charge to the engine. We do not want to talk about, especially since it is different for every pilot over radiator controls, individual booms of MG`s, bomb sights, gyro and diverse Bombenabwurfmodi times.
In aerial combat, it is absolutely necessary to permanently adjust pitch and cooler positions otherwise cause it to overheat or lacks power. Capital engine damage go fix and abzubekommen without results.
If you like flying and wants not just shoot will have a lot of fun with the game, even if it is still unfinished construction sites are here and because the cloud the picture somewhat. You can literally see the original even more features were planned which are, unfortunately, probably only come under the Ostfronterweiterung. But experience with 100 other pilots online on a server plus AI on a map of 300 by 350 km long hours dogfights is pure adrenalin. All in all a buy recommendation.
Steam is a duty that should be known and TrackIR 4 or better is a clear recommendation as ideal supplement that facilitates much.
See you over the canal or the holding point!
