I was about to buy combat flight simulator 3, but my main interest in online multiplayer gaming. I have searched the zone (www.zone.com) which is usally where i fly online with FS9 but cant find a combat flight sim 3 server (or section) only combat flight sim 2, can anyone tell me where to find online games for Combat flight sim 3

Many thanks

Go down the list on the left and you'll see it.

I don't have the game but I have heard that CFS2 is better than CFS3.
Check around before you buy it.

Can ms combat3 be multiplayered between two computers not online? I networked two of mine and FSim2004 works but can't get combat3. All I can do is internet play. I like to shoot down my Grandkids but when there here at the house we can't multiplay. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

There arent much places to go besides the stock online Multiplayer. The zone Has only cfs2, i looked at the list. If you want a squad ask me at squadrem308@yahoo.com, ill hook you up and you can fly with us.

If by "much better" you mean "much more resource intensive, buggy, crash-prone and difficult to tweak" - then yes, you are right. CFS3 is all of these.

Nope, CFS3 is much easier to tweak, and once tweaked properly, will run without buggy action. CFS2 is also resorce intensive, it just depends on your system. Wink

Athlon64 3200+ Winchester
MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
1GB RAM 2-2-2-5 1T
MSI 6600GT video
Audigy 2 sound
XP SP2
Everything running stock speeds

CFS3 is buggy for me. I am lucky if I can get through one mission without the video/sound glitching or the whole computer just hanging.

If you didn't add a new router or firewall and now have SP2 that can be the cause.

What do you have to lose. you can download it again. I don't use it because of all the minor problems I've read about.
But my new laptop came with it installed, no problems...yet.
