tahoman Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 UPS just delivered my copy of Forgotten Battles today and after booting it up, I just have two words to describe it......"SIMPLY AMAZING". (Even on my "low end" machine. 8) Quote
SDirickson Posted March 18, 2003 Posted March 18, 2003 I'd like to see one. The il2sturmovik.com forums are a bit too harsh and unfriendly for me. I'll take these forums any day of the week. FYI: I'm getting 25 - 40 fps in normal missions, occasionally bottoming out at 15 in campaigns. This is with my driver OpenGL settings maxed out, FSAA off, AA at 4x, 1152 x 864 32bit and 'excellent' settings in FB. AMD Athlon 1.4 ghz Radeon 8500 64mgb 768 PC-2100 DDR-RAM SB Live! X-Gamer 5.1 WinXP Saitek X-45 I love this game! Quote
tahoman Posted March 19, 2003 Author Posted March 19, 2003 Low end (based off what the box calls for anyway) => Windows ME AMD 900 Athlon Geforce 2 64mb video card Audigy sound card 512 mb RAM Quote
snapple2993 Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Ya I've been ripped by Blitz Pig Buzz, a number of times on the IL2 forum, and it was just because he's a prick, I was really chill back when I went to that forum. Always wondered why we didnt have an IL2 forum here, thanks Jeff for making one for FB! :D Quote
Guest Ranger332 Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 SOME GREAT EFFECTS IN THIS GAME :) :thumbup: Quote

+pcpilot Posted March 24, 2003 Posted March 24, 2003 Yeah, I love this sim. Way too cool. It seems to run pretty good on my P3 1ghz machine with a Radeon 8500 64 meg card. I do have some graphical glitches occasionally though. Almost everytime I go head on with an enemy, my screen goes black. I have one airbase were I start my missions for the campaign I am building and the end of the runway is raised above the rest of the runway, really weird. I also get an opengl error message when I close the game out. Doesnt seem to affect restarts of the game. Other that that, she runs good. Already played online with a few guys and it was cool. Now all I gotta do is figure out the bombsights. Quote
SDirickson Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 PC, that graphics glitch when going head on, lol, umm that could be the super accurate sniper AI everyone is complaining about over at the il2sturmovik.com forums. Pilot kills happen frequently and often during head ons. Try hitting F2 or something after that happens. Quote
+pcpilot Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 Hmmmm, hadnt heard of that before. Whenever I was killed before in IL2, I could still see everything. Never had the screen go black like that before. Oh well, me dying in headons isnt uncommon though, you'd think I'd learn... :roll: I did find that I could switch views and continue seeing what was going on. Thanks. So when do you charchters wanna get together for a little mano e mano? Hey I understand if ya dont though, I do have a pretty deadly reputation... :roll: Quote
Scandinavian Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 Runs well on my Low end system. PIII500mhz 256mb ram GF2MX 32mb Yeah yeah, laugh your pants off.. :roll: Quote
SDirickson Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 Yeah PC, you can get instant PK'd now and it blacks the cockpit view. Head to head is definately not recommended. I'd love to do some online FB, but I don't have a lot of time right now. Schoolwork and all that. Set up a date and I'll try and meet it though. Quote
Harti Posted May 27, 2003 Posted May 27, 2003 The il2sturmovik.com forums are a bit too harsh and unfriendly for me. I'll take these forums any day of the week. I love this game! Hm you should try the german one ;) Yes the game is great but there are many things which should be improves like cem/climbrates a.s.o. I wait forthe patch (btw sorry for my bad english) Quote
