Imho you are wasting you're time if you are not using TrackIR. No I haven't got shares in them but without it is a near impossibility to find your opponent. He is also capable of turning on a sixpence. If he goes roaring past you, guns blazing, then a small evasive manoeuvre, followed by a tight, slow turn should put you on his tail. Well, shades of CFS1, no it doesn't. Within seconds, he's back on your tail.
Again, imho, don't pick an aircraft with an overhead wing, e.g. a Dolphin. You'll never see him!
On my system (see below) it takes an inordinate amount of time for the game to load from desktop. If it does, that is! On a number of occasions I've been advised that there is no disk inserted!
In Setup, you must hit the Vertical Sync button, otherwise you will only be able to look left/right, even with TIR. I have also found that with some of the View buttons, you still cannot look up and down, even with V Sync on. Cas141, this solves my problem of suddenly not being able to look up and down; I started with in-cockpit view where you can and, in desperation, switched to external view, where you can't.
WoW doesn't like Wacom Graphic pads! On a number of occasions I found that my mouse had stopped functioning (I use both mouse and pen). Initially, I tried everything to get out of a 'freeze', including using the Manager, who didn't want to know! Eventually, after it had happened for the umpteenth time, I picked up my graphic pen and scribbled on the tablet. Miraculously, the mouse was released!
I have also had Memory dumps on 3 occasions when attempting to re-start the computer. Whether this has anything to do with WoW, I'm not sure but I have my suspicions!
In Death Match you can end up fighting with somebody who is supposed to be on your own side - which is a bit silly! The Bots(ugh!) or AI seem to think so too, according to some of their comments. One to One in the team event is much better.
If they intend to bring out a version 2, I suggest people wait until then. WoW has great potential; the graphics and scenery are very good but ....
