Microsoft combat flight sim 3

Yet, as we flew day after day of successful missions for the Allies, we saw the front line crumbling. It was horrible, as if Hitler had pushed ahead with his intentions to invade England.

What's even more puzzling is that this happened after the front line initially had burst across the English Channel and into France. We tried to engage the ground war by manually ordering a push. Players earn prestige points when their squadron flies successful missions and these points can then be spent on ordering ground war attacks. They can also spend prestige points to transfer to a different air base or gain a new aircraft type early. Ordering a ground offensive, however, is expensive, and it would be hard to sustain one by player intervention for extended periods of time.

And, every time we tried to do it, it seemed to have little effect. The campaign engine seemed to be chugging along and doing something, but no matter what we did, we ultimately lost territory swiftly and without explanation.

It's also uncertain how useful it would be to spend points to transfer to a different airbase, as the campaign would periodically transfer our squadron with no explanation. The campaign provides little feedback to the player. Novices, and some experts too, are going to be absolutely flabbergasted because there's nothing but confusion about the ebb and flow of the front line.

Successful missions and manually triggered ground movements have little effect, there are no battle reports about what happened in the ground assaults, and there's nothing to identify what the player is doing wrong.

There is no tangible link between the player's actions and the results on the line. There's a news section players can view to see items about the war, but most are terse statements that the player's forces gained or lost particular objective, or useless trivia about what propaganda movie the troops are watching. The campaign fails to create the sense that the player is a small but significant part of a grand war because their involvement is so abstract. They do not see their efforts making a difference and there's little evidence that other friendly air and ground forces are at work.

There are artillery firings and explosions occasionally seen near the front, but the player still feels like a lone participant. Contrast this to Enemy Engaged: Comanche vs. There, a player's mission was one of several air and ground force deployments, he could watch and assist the other troops, and he could then see the front line on the strategic map actively moving with the gain or loss of objectives. It gets worse. The time warp feature is a crucial aid to helping busy players get quickly to the action.

It's one that worked well in previous CFS games, zipping the players past the dull waypoint traversals, but stopping when necessary to let them tend to the action.

Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. You can indicate that CFS3 worked normally with previous versions of Windows. Jim: You have to run the "Program Compatability Troubleshooter". I have just upgraded to windows10 from windows7 where I had a fully working copy. I have done nothing to the installation, and am interested to find out what you did to get it to work. Could you please help with some info on what to do?

How do you get CFS3 to run with Windows 10? CFS3 did run with Windows 8 and 8. How do you fix this? This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
