Kudos to you! that was a very comprehensive and fair review that was intelligently thought out and executed. You nailed the strong points of the sim, and then openly and without bias explained the negatives. As I posted this on the RoF forum, I decided it was better suited here... so here.

I agree, a very good review, one thing I would have liked to see though is a question in the interview regarding what happens to the players should the company go under.

Thank you for mentioning that you enjoyed the Review! I can expand where I can on questions and answers in the Rise Of Flight Forum here in AVSIM. I wanted to keep the Review as specific as possible to my own personal experiences with the game at the time. Even as I was writing the Review, neoqb was distributing patches and updates, which means that the game is still changing. As Mr. Zhiltsov mentioned, they hope to eliminate all of the bugs by 2010, so neoqb ought to last at least that long! So, I did not expect Mr. Zhiltsov to discuss the DRM in detail (you can read up on it at the Rise Of Flight website for yourself), nor on how long he expects neoqb to remain solvent (neoqb expects to release combat sim games that year by year go beyond WWI - I hope I am around to review Rise Of Flight: Battle Of The Apocalyptic Robot Mechaplane Monsters if it eventually comes out).

Really good review, combining the excitement and feeling of flying the sim, with the issues around setting it up. Best and most comprehensive review I've read on RoF.smith
