Welcome aboard, Tigershuffle.

Nice video indeed. the videos about SF that I saw on youtube, also looked nice. But that is exactly the reason why I found it so confusing to find that actually playing the game was far less absorbing than the videos made me believe it would be.

I can only refer again to the feeling of the campaigns in IL2, which are also very sterile. And considering other Russian games like LOMAC or Flanker, they all suffered from this as well: lack of immersion, lack of feeling to be there, sterile campaigns or missions. T72BOF was said to suffer from that as well. It seems to be a Russian thing

, although all needed ingredients are there, and many of them in very good quality and execution, like visuals of models for example.

Copared to SF, I would say that even the old M1TP2 had more feeling in it and was more addictive, than any of these Russian titles, including SF. Somehow M1TP2 made something decisively different.
