IL2 Just a DOGFIGHT SIM?!
refering IL2 as just a dogfight sim is crazy

and btw IL2 copy protection, I've been using IL2 since the very first day it came out and never had any issues with its copy protection not ingame not systematicly.

back to the simple dogfight sim, the campaign is not indeed the best I've seen around in games.
but for the rest IL2 is more then that!
it depends on the role you take,

you can be a fighter and sweep fighters in indeed dogfights.
which require the old fashion tactics used in those days depending your situation. and thought they seem simple as its just pulling the trigger to kill the enemy without inputting data like in jet fighters but still...a mistake can be fatal as the roles of the hunter becomes the hunted. and using your plane in the wrong way is big mistake to make when trying to take out a enemy.

you can be a Bomber killer and take out the enemy bombers with heavy calibre machine guns and cannons.

take the role of a twin engine fighter, and strafe the enemy airfields.
or you could be a light bomber like the stuka and give the ground forces pure hell.

and ofcourse not the least the Bombers. fend of enemy fighters on the way to your target, stay in formation, level out your plane and input the right data into the bombsight and drop the load ontop of factory's and ground targets. watch out for flak.

and the best of all online play.
get into servers where they made very good dogfight maps which is not only for dogfighting...you get goals to destroy the enemy fleet for example.

and also a very nice feature if you know how to use it. the Mission editor where you can create your own missions, make them as thought as you like too. make goals, use them for online play with friends.

and also IL2 itself.
the game is stable as a brick house.
its system friendly, it doesnt ask much for nice graphics.

and ofcourse in IL2 the planes, fly the planes which are famous by their names the BF109, P47 thunderbolt, A6M2 ZERO, FW190, P51 Mustang.

if you like the old fashion combat from man to man.
get IL2.
