IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover $4.99 Daily Deal at Gamersgate (Steam key)

Still not worth it.  I re-installed it and updated to the latest TF mod to see if they fixed anything.  AA is still absent so it looks like crap.  UI is still terrible.  I tried making a quick mission and even after all this time, modding, and patching, you still have almost no control over the mission parameters.

If you choose "even dogfight", the Axis side will always be Italian, even if you give them German planes.  The AI is still terrible as well.  I set up a quick dogfight of 3 Hurricanes vs. 4 Bf-109 E3's.  Three of the Bf-109s dove straight into the sea.

When I was playing this before.. MP was very cool on the ATAG server.. good people good action.. I just don't have the eyesight to do the fighters.. But I really enjoyed Skip Bombing with the Bleinhem's..

Yeah, I heard MP was decent.  That's the main reason I decided to re-install.  Going to give it a whirl with the SimHQ team of drunken Brits.

You should join up for ArmA III.  The guys have created some really decent MP co-op and PvP missions already.  Server's down this weekend but the Monday night session should be up and running.  Been getting 25-30 players most weeks.

I don't own ArmA III yet, but I may be up for CloD with them. Is this the same guys we played IronFront with?

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Yup.  Some of those guys and quite a few others.

Anvil of Dawn is on sale at GOG for $1.49 right now. I didn't play it back in the day but at that price I'll just save it for a rainy day novelty.

...and you can even get Early Access for the low, low price of ....$94.99  :o  I think I'll wait a year or so and grab it when it too hits $5.

Get a cup of coffee or other beverage of choice....IMHO it's that bad.

Do they have Bomber crews? When do they play?
Might have to re-learn startup procedures and figure out what keys I have assigned to what!

$94.99 to be a beta tester? What the hell are they smoking?!

We MUST be playing different games. My experience with the TF Mod has been stunning.
