but it would be interesting to know.

What's best for one person is not best for another... I went with full version of both A-10C and Ka-50 because of less hassle when reinstalling

This is hard to answer. I have always did the full install. I found for some reason I had problems with all the patches. But this time I had problems with the full install. Before doing any update, I always make a backup copy of the saved game and main folder. I did the full install and A-10 would launch, but when I selected a mission in just a few seconds the game would crash. So I deleted my install and replaced it with a copy of the backup and used the patch. Games works great, no problems.

Full install is best both for BS2 and A-10C. And also remove the old Saved Games folder before installing.

Clean install of full version is preferable every time.

Always full.

Usually patched - never problems.

I've patched from v 1.1.0.7 with no issues whatsoever.

Considering the developer's response to any problems with a patch is to instruct the user to install the full version; I do not see any point in installing a patch under any circumstances.

 

I only bother to download them out of a sense of completeness.

Cheers chaps for your input.

 

I've just patched and it's looks great. FPS up, no stutter and no ctd's...yet!

(Got home this morning after a knee op so missed the 1.1.1.1 launch which is why I asked the Q).

Thanks ED for this, keep up the good work.:thumbup:

I always do a full version with A10C and patches on BS2 no problems so far.

Patched... all mods remained untouched... just had to replace the fella in red jacket splash screen... and a few buttons on the stick re-binded...

[CarneyUK]

Patched, no problems except the new 1.1.1.1 removed modifiers. Only took 2 secs to put them back in and all fine.

Although I've usually had good luck with patches for any program, I now make it a habit of a full reinstall - when given a choice. Thanks, ED, for giving us that choice! Not everyone does...
