Re: Hillary's new book

i think most of the Hillary book raters didn't read any of it...... let alone get to page 33. My point being that it is likely the same group of obama activists were directed to low-rate Hillary's book, at the same time pumping up Warren's ratings. Apparently, Warren has been conversing a lot lately...

Re: Hillary's new book

Amazon.com reviews reveal something interesting.....Hillary's book has the worst rating I ve ever seen... One star? While whoever (probably the same army of minions) is pimping and pumping the boring and mundane Friend of Obama Elizabeth Warren gets her almost almost five...

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

War Thunder is definitely worth checking out Pud, expecially once you set it up properly. IMO it's a better mix of sim and game than any WW2 effort out there, by a good margin, including what's being developed. Gaijin can't do everything, but it's a huge team and what they have done is very well res...

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

I've played it a lot in the last week, that's about it. Wil probably play a bit more over the next few months. Looking forward to extra content and the FMB in the release version...

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

Nah it's free for the most part... if you want to advance up a tech tree faster, or get early access to some of the nicer aircraft, you can pay. I guess in that way it's like kind of like World of Tanks if you're familiar.

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

Ah yes, sorry. I hope Jason's admittedly small team can really do as well with flight dynamics and visual range as they have with other aspects of the game... not confident about that unfortunately.

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

I've played mostly with icons, and a few games in Simulation mode without. Aircraft in sim mode are not too difficult to find, as the 'dots' are against the sky or moving fast relative to ground, but ground vehicles are extremely difficult to identify. They don't move fast enough or make enough dust...

Re: Downloading Premium edition of IL2: Battle of Stalingrad

Any further thoughts on this? I've had the "Premium Edition" from the first day, and can't get into it for more than a few minutes... the game has some spectacular features; the visuals and animations are awesome. Ground handling of aircraft on takeoff is the best of any sim... flight hand...

We have a long road to travel before it gets that bad RD, lol. Canadian vet care is better than your government run human-care.
