IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad

The Sky is very nice, the lighting helps sell the winter setting with a bright, cool sunlight that you would expect from that season, the cloud effects are probably the best I have ever seen in a sim with amazing effects as you fly through them, it really gives the whole thing a dramatic feeling when you set the flight time to early dawn or dusk as the colors get very beautiful.

If you want WW2 combat flight sim done properly, accurately, and realistically, then you have come to the right place.

One final note on gameplay, the feeling of flight (as I mentioned before) is something really special here, the sound, the control responses and the visuals all combine to really sell you the idea that you are flying in a aircraft, it just feels right in a way that is difficult to describe.

RECOMMENDED FOR: People into wargames, military history, aviation, complex sims, online multiplayer, and joystick, head-tracking or VR users.

Well, after 550 hours atm, I can say, that the learning curve is really high.

There developers were pretty helpful at responding to to any issues I had setting up a DServer so i could play Coop via Pat Wilsons Campaign Generator (Highley Recommended).
