The latest Air Battle game from Microsoft! Running on an entirely new platform, CFS3 is raising it's fair share of problems & opinions - Good & Bad!

Another unstatisfied customer...

Having owned CFS 3 for about 8 hours now, I must say MS is not winning any converts here.

You can get the CFS3 patch here: http://microsoftgamesinsider.com/CFSInsider/default.htm I agree with ya on all the points you made there, but especially numbers 1 and two. BTW, there is a Free FLight option; Quick Combat > Free FLight. I know, at first i couldnt find it.

PS:Another problem with CFS3: The Views

first get a 3D card. That in it self will improve things. Second try and use the tweaks found in the thread above. Third got to this thread.

that is most likely one of the best threads on getting your computer to run at peak performace in general that I have seen. One final thing. Make sure you have a power supply that can run everything. I went from a 250 watt to a 450 watt and it helped in performance for me
Like you I was a bit upset with CFS3. It still has its problem but it is much better now than when I fisrt bought it
