I was told that the pirated version of F/A-18 is already available over the Internet. As a result, you're going to hear alot more comments regarding the game in the next few days.

Warez is crap, do not listen to the people who post gripes about warez. They shouldn't have anything to complain about.

Warez is killing the industry. I would ask anyone who reads this post: DO NOT DOWNLOAD WAREZ! F/A 18 looks to be an incredible piece of software. As a software developer, I know the kind of work it takes to build a program like that. Programmers are expensive. And it takes many of them to make a game like F18. Not to mention the graphic designers, project managers and the other people involved. To pay less that $50.00 for a copy of a game like that is a gift indeed. If you want to fly the flight sims of tommorrow, you better support the flight sims of today.

What about getting a warez version now and still buying the game when it finally comes out in your part of the world?
Of course one should not complain about any issues until he's a legit owner.

I don't think many people will download a warez version of this sim and not buy the full version, because of the manual. The manual is almost, if not absolutely required to play a sim of this depth.

Yeah right!

Try printing a 250+ page manual!! Talk about screwed logic!

I can't believe people come to a flightsim
page and talk about pirating..

Have you noticed that Sim developers are starting to make an appearance on some message boards??
Another example is Danny from Magnetic Fields on the Rally2000 messageboard at www.simracingnews.com/

Jane's have the decency to answer posts on this board. How long do you think that will happen when posts about warez and ripping them off appear!

Some people just don't get it...

You are absolutely right these guys (ie)the programmers and developers work their butts off for months even years to bring us what we love to do ,But I think the percentage of people that actually use warez is low, I personally would not use a site even if I knew of one because It is STEALING.
