  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It certainly can seem like simulations are dying at times. Does anyone here enjoy a good hardcore sim?

I play IL2/Pacific Fighters: a WW2 flight sim.
With TrackIr and a good joystick this game is still amazing after 6 years. Flying online with other people via hyperlobby is such a blast. Screaming out of the sun in a mustang with .50s blazing at some poor pilot who didn't watch his back, or conversely trying to stay calm and asking for help in a Betty G4M bomber while hellcats are diving towards you and your gunners are starting to fire is an experience I haven't had in any other game.

I just picked up Enemy Engaged 2: a helo sim
I enjoy Silent Hunter 3: a WW2 sub sim

I am thinking about getting Microsoft Flightsimulator X
but haven't yet.

What sims do you guys enjoy? Or do you absolutely hate them?

Yeah I’ve been using the MSFS for many years, the SR-71 is probably my favorite ride but I like to fly the A10 and P51 pretty often. Favorite on-line flight sim would be WWII Online, though not just a “flight-sim” since it is a fully simulated battle field with 1000‘s of playrs (on its good days), but it has aircraft and lots of people to flame, strafe or bomb :)

Sub sims are my second favorite among 3D sims, Jane’s 688(I) was one of my most played sims as well as Silent Service. Played Red Storm Rising a lot. Have been considering Silent hunter 4: Wolves of the pacific.

Other than that, Civ.
