I can totally relate to this.

Then let them post their crap somewhere else.

Wrong. If it happens to fail ultimately I`ll move on and forget about it. Like any adult should do over a 50$ video game.

Carguy, I know I'm not a mod but you're probably going to receive an infraction for posting like that, try and post all your comments in one post, using the quote button at the top of the text box.

That's a good idea, and I've done it, but it's not as easy as it could be. When you are composing a reply, the other posts are visible, but the quote buttons on them disappear, if you want to quote them you have to open another tab or window, quote them in that, then copy that quote across to the original window.

I relate too.

When I was a kid, WWII veterans were everywhere.If you wanted to experience anything close to what they had done, you either talked to them, read the history books or watched the movie, "The Flying Tigers" with John Wayne.

I began flight simming with the original Microsft Flight Simulator way back in the 80s. It was mesmerizing. Then came "Aces of the Pacific", "1942 Pacific Air War", "Janes WWII Fighters", "Falcon 3.0", etc. IL2 was the Grail.

If anyone had given me a magically time-teleported copy of COD even 5 years ago, I would have giggled like a kid. I bought a brand new rig to play COD, and it wasn't cheap. It plays fine on my machine and always has. I only wished initially for a more aggressive AI but that has been addressed. There is so much about this game that actually works.I wish the people who are dissappointed will ultimately find a way to enjoy it, but for a few, I think the problem will never be patched away because the problem isn't in the code. It's either hardware, or hard headedness, or both.

I will buy every sequel these folks make becuase I want them to stay in business. As much as I like COD, I don't want to be playing COD 15 years from now (provided I'm still around). I want to have version 4.2 of "IL2-Air War In North Africa" or some other exciting theater. In the meantime, I'm going to be grateful (yes, grateful) that I can fully enjoy Cliffs of Dover.

Devs, rock on- you have the overwhelming majority of the community that has faith you will "make it right"- like you always have.

Peace

This thread needs a chart............




.

Actually, it does work "out of the box". it does run.

No it doesn't, the average yearly income in Russia, as of May 2008 (yes it has probably inreased a couple of dollars by now) was $7,680. This and the fact that computer components aren't much cheaper than in the EU for example makes building a new beefy rig an enourmous financial undertaking for even a normal income person in yarn old Federation. It seems a lot of people on this board aren't aware that there are poorer people than themselves in the world, especially in former Soviet countries, that strikes me as very ignorant. How can you be surprised that DX9 is still being supported for CloD? Do you think MG are only making sims for the wealthiest few in the west? lol to that!
