I uninstalled BOB and am quietly waiting for the patch. If it doesn't come, well I'll write it off. Truthfully, I never expected the North American version to be as buggy as the European -- since the North American was released later.

Oh well, I still have European Air War to play and Il2 for the future.

Truly, the buggy from the box state of most flight sims has taken much of the luster off the genre, for me.

By the way, I congratulate the posters' on this thread for keeping the so-called "flame" at such a high level of discourse -- not really a "flame" thread at all -- just well considered discussion.

For the record, if someone actually does flame, I never open a post by that person again -- I hate genuine flame wars -- so it was with some trepidation that I opened this thread -- happy I did.

That's hardly a flame, well said

I'm lucky since converting my desktop resolution, I have had no problems, cept jerkiness.

Well bisher...I think the "jerkiness" was the main issue with BoB to begin with.
I guess I'm a little different posting here because BoB has ran almost perfectly for me on my system from day one. I just couldn't join the "HOORAH,this is the most wonderful thing since sliced bread" crowd. Because it was obvious that there were problems with this software that went well beyond a "configuration" fix. Following hot on the heels of the B-17II debacle,it was just more than the sim community should have had to put up with. And,frankly,the attitude of some of the early "its your computer,not the game" posters was annoying,not to mention misleading. I too am glad to see some balanced and thoughtful debate(for the most part:rolleyes . I understand why people go "ga,ga" over this sim. I think some have let their enthusiasm overcome their judgment about the overall "product" that was released a month before its projected release date. That should have sent up the warning flags.

Yes but my jerkiness does not distract from the immersion to the point I don't enjoy the game

Though it has been 18 years since I made my original post smile So I really can't remember wink
