View Full Version : Avoid BoS until release

After purchasing BoS I have to say it really doesnt feel very good. EVERY SINGLE match is won by the Axis planes which can out turn, outclimb, and out speed every single allied plane. I put the yak into a vertical climb and at 60 mph the thing didnt even stall, just flew itself. The 109 is the same thing only it can out fly everything so its just that much worse. The FM feels like garbage and I would advise waiting for the complete version before making any decision to buy it. The graphics are good, thats about all I can say on a positive note right now.

The reason the Axis planes win every time is simple: In this time period, the 109F is superior to any of the contemporary Russian offerings, save PERHAPS the La-5 in very certain situations.

The later war periods the game will change dramatically. LA5-F and the FN are just fine against A4 and A5s and will give the G2 a run for it's money. Too bad they aren't part of this time period or theater.

All,

Please don't turn this thread into a flame war.

I think he started one already by such an idiotic/trolling post.

This is exactly what I warned about.
Any more and the thread will be locked.

I am not trolling, just giving my opinions of this "game/sim", if you dont like it then move on. A few other things I have noticed:

109's appear to not be able to stall, and have unlimited energy, you can follow them to stall speeds and then watch them miraculously climb again.
Energy fighting is non-existent, no matter what kind of E you have the 109 will beat you.
The damage model is rubbish, think war thunder style here all the way.
The flight model as a whole feels like it was taken from a ww1 sim and attempted adaptation for a ww2 sim, which it was.

At this point I am sad to say this is not a "sim" and belongs more to the "arcade game" family, I doubt much will change in the three months before release.

Again, just my opinions of this game(and I do mean game), take them or leave them.

A quick search of the members of the BoS forum shows no one called Ooozie. Are you quite, quite sure you're not RedRide?

Dr. Uzi:

We at Team Fusion are not interested in starting a flame war with the people at BATTLE OF STALINGRAD.

They have created a new game which has many positives and gives players the opportunity to fly on a different front.

Some will prefer BoS to CLIFFS OF DOVER, and some will have the opposite view.

As Flight Simmers we are glad to have another option to indulge our favourite hobby... we welcome DCS WWII for the same reason.

Please keep your comments objective and do not attempt to create unnecessary controversy.

While its not up to me, I suspect if you continue with negative inclined threads you may find yourself banned on this forum as well as ATAG's server.

This part is simply not true:

"109's appear to not be able to stall, and have unlimited energy, you can follow them to stall speeds and then watch them miraculously climb again.
Energy fighting is non-existent, no matter what kind of E you have the 109 will beat you."

109 does have advantage in acceleration, climb and speed, but if you are down low and get jumped by yak-1 with energy advantage, you are in trouble.

Part about damage and flight models I won't comment, that was original posters opinion and he is entitled to those. My opinion is different.
