It's also very well optimized, even with tons of AI on the screen as well as a bunch of ground units, can't say the same for ROF one bit. Warthunder has this genius control setup wizard that basically let's you just walk through every control and map it all by pushing the button on your HOTAS and it just flows quick and easy and allows you to setup what you need without any confusion. I mean I agree I don't think WT is very realistic, even on simulator settings but it has a lot of things ROF could use, even aside from actually playing the game, in terms of interface. Flight models are questionable, although to be fair they'd be debated whether they were as realistic as humanly possible or not.Īnd we're still missing a bunch of planes to have realistic scenarios throughout the years supported in the game, we've been using a 1918 SE5a for 1917 scenarios I believe. There's no complex engine management in game, you don't have to deal with any of the things the real pilots had to. I think the amount of damage wings and pilots take to kill is unrealistic, wings come off too easy and pilots take too much to kill, even il21946 has a realistic pilot damage model, headshots happen, as do leg wounds or arm wounds, aileron damage or rudder/elevator damage, none of this is possible in ROF, either your wings are gone, your pilot dies in four hits or your rudder and elevator gets shot off, no control wires modeled. You don't fly in realistic numbers and the AI doesn't fly in a realistic manner. You can say the same about ROF roen, this game doesn't properly represent the ground war, the career mode isn't realistic, it isn't dynamic as it should be, no man's land never moves. I will give you an example,Microsoft simulator i had it for years and for many years was unistalled,when Real Environment Xtreme came out and Accu-Feel the fsx become so popular again,What these two mods change i think you know. Simulator=Realistic and thunder is not realistic.I do agree that looks cool when flying in cockpit with the animations but the game as a game is bad for my taste !Personally what i think about ROF,even with the new map,new features i like it,The water is better than any other simulator i have seen so far… but if ROF now somehow with an addon or something had more realistic clouds (not the fluffy ones) and realistic terraing textures will be by far the best simulator.For some reason i bored a bit the "same" textures and to be honest i love the way the il2-1946 terrain looks like with the mods. You should have tried the simulator mode then… Guys you cant compare ROF with War Thunder.Rof = flight simulator /War Thunder = FPS with a cockpit,i dont think is a simulator at all,plus the way the planes flying….you know what i mean !I was an early beta tester for 2 days …and i am bored my life !
