Fun

Only just begun.

10/5 stars. It IS that good.

Great game. Great graphics. Very realistic. Nice planes. Needs a few more enemy types of enemy aircraft though. But doesnt really matter. GREAT APP.

Great but could be more

Needs multiple simultaneous targets, ability to fly low, better sound effects, ongoing music would be nice. Also enemy needs to be able to inflict real damage. Lastly, perhaps less ammo would make it more challenging.

Good but needs fixes to be great,

This could become my favorite app game ever as I would love to have been a WWII fighter pilot. The graphics are the best Ive seen. And the fluidness of the aircraft movement is very realistic. But there are several bugs/ issues that need to fixed B4 it gets a 5 star evaluation. 1. You are only able to shoot the enemy aircraft that is targeted. Several times a Me-109 or Ju-88 flew through my sites while pursuing another target. You can not inflict damage to unhighlighted aircraft. 2. The german side AI is non-existent. I went through the entire campaign in one night w/o once being pursued by a German Me-109 let alone shot down! Even when I did get hit by the Ju-88 gunners there was no measurable damage to my aircraft ( unrealistic). Its not a true fight if the opponent cant fight back! 3. Even in realistic mode there was little gravity in effect affecting ones speed. My speed changed very little even in the vertical! In real flight ones altitude equals life and speed. There seems to be no consideration for the effect of gravity. I put the plane into a near verticle climb with zero power and continued to climb as my speed never dropped below 10 kts. Not realistic. 4. Fix the engine sound and replace the music with radio chatter for back ground for a more realistic feel. The Spitfire Merlin Engine has a beautiful growl. This has a wimpy sound that repeats so quickly it makes the engine sound like its dying. 5. No collisions occur between aircraft. I flew through other aircraft without consequences. 6. Remove the holographic enemy aircraft under the gun site. It serves no purpose and obscures ones shot! 7. Replace the time clock w/ a fuel gage for added realism. 8. What is the camera for? It can not be accessed after a mission or reviewed. Seems useless. I think this game could be an awesome game with a few modifications!

Very good, but not quite great

Pros: + great graphics! + nice flight dynamics + good controls - rudder and throttle control is very helpful + enemy directional arrow and next enemy button is really nice + historical references + ability to turn off music + fun game! Aggravations / Desired Improvements: - you are limited to the number of planes you can shoot down; if the "mission" says you shoot down one bomber & one fighter, once you do that, youre done. Would like more freedom to attack & down other aircraft in the mission timeframe. - a career mode would be nice; ability to create a player and fly semi-historical missions against enemies that could actually inflict damage. - enemies cannot really hurt you; no fighters harass or attack you, EVER. There is no risk of being shot down. Waaaaayyyyy too easy. - no option to take off or land from an airfield. Flaps and gear control would be a great addition here. - no option to bail out (which would be nice if you could really be shot down) - gravity. Its a law. Obey it. (Speed doesnt seem to be affected by climbs and dives.) - engine sounds could be better matched to aircraft speed, but its not terrible. - get rid of the stupid plane image at the bottom of the screen. Useless. - ? Fly missions as the enemy? Just a thought. Overall: + Worth the $5 or so I spent on it. + Would gladly double (triple?) that for the desired improvements above.

Spitfire

You should not have a time limit and let us shoot as many fighters we want

Could be a lot better...

The game was really short for me. For the money is should be longer. I beat all levels on my first try and was waiting for it to get harder but it never did. I love dogfight games like this, but this was way to easy and too short, and we should e able to kill as many fighters as we want, there should not be a limit on like on 1-3 fighters. Way to short and easy, I would love to see more levels and get harder, I never died once, or ran out of time.

Mistake

Not impressed at all. Try the cheaper version, be fore you buy this. Just a weird game and hard to control.

Hard to control

This game is hard to control and slow. I do not recommend it

Major pilot guy

Awesome game but likes to cut out every time I get to a big battle with numerous bombers or sometimes wont work at all...plz fix

Warbirds spitfire

Best air combat on the I-pod

More freedom

Let the player chose the targets and end the game at a point of their own choosing.

Game

I am giving this 3 stars because when I passed to another pilot in the campaign I got sent back to the first mission I want a graphics update and a better engine sound and a better cockpit this one is blurry and I cant see it at all I also want more realism to the game its unrealistic

Great sim

I have all of them they are great they are just plain fun.
