Sites like Combat Ace and Capun Skunkworks already offer dozens of user-made crates. Also TW know full-well that fans will fill in a lot of the gaps themselves. I think the plan is to add other warbirds - other phases of the war - via expansion packs. It does seem strange they didn't include famous machines like the Camel and Fokker triplane. With no engine management, or big differences in size, firepower or role, the SPAD, SE5A, and Fokker DVII end-up feeling very similar. It's not even as if the trio are particularly charismatic or deeply modelled. I know TW are a small outfit and the download version is only 15 quid, but still. What - you mean the lack of flyable planes? Pipe smoking in cockpits was banned by the Allies after a string of accidents. My main gripes were the absence of atmosphere and lack of content. From what little I've seen, I'm thinking a 'five' or a 'six' - "Third Wire wring another agreeably accessible, but achingly unimaginative lite flight sim out of the Strike Fighters engine". I'm supposed to be giving Eurogamer a First Eagles review tomorrow morning, but because of that business with Zoe's toe, I've only had time to fly a handful of missions. Sorry to bother you at this hour, but I was wondering if I could pick your brains about a combat flight sim?
