For the E3, the release date has been reset for June 17th. IGN is covering the convention really close, so I would not be surprised if a new video shows up over there in a few days (it began today and lasts until the 4th).

Does it come with starforce?

The game looks fantastic. I'm not into biplane but I have to admit that the graphics is amazing.

No, it contains nothing like that on it. You do, however, need an Internet connection to play it. According to Russian players, this stands for both single and multiplayer, but for single player, it's just so you can login and authenticate your game copy.

It is beautiful, isn't it? And what's even better is that 125,000 square km of the Western Front has been rendered into it using historical documents and satellite footage.

It's got some steep requirements, though, so I'll be needing an upgrade before long (might as well; an 8600 GTS can apparently run it with little trouble, but there comes a time when one must get with the program and advance with the crowd).

An Internet connection is required, even for Single player? That stinks. I usually prefer to have my MODEM disconnected while I fly so that I don't get booted off due to some Internet issue like E-Mail or Yahoo decided to refresh on me.

If it's just for the registration, that's fine but I prefer to limit my resource hogs to improve frame rate. Disabling Explorer.exe really helps.

It does look great but I think I'll wait for the forum comments to start coming out after its release to see how this online issue affects things.

Err I think Stealth Hunter meant that for SP internet is required at the very start to authenticate your copy. Probably similar with Empire Total War. I can live with that. I think I'm gonna grab it. It looks fantastic. I hope it would feel fantastic too!

The Russians are amazing when it comes to building realistic games.

Err, no, I'm pretty sure they said you have to stay connected all the time
