I think this game is dead!
 

Have not played for a while was waiting for the patch ;)
Just tried it today and i found no players at all :(
what's happening with that game?
where is the patch?

I agree with you! Last week I had tried numerous times to find a MP game but no one was playing MP in the ENTIRE WORLD!!! I am bringing this game back to gamestop and going to use the $15.00, trade in value, for the children's Christmas gift.

Lets face it...even if a patch comes out it will be too little and way too late to save this game.:mad:

More wasted money!

This is my last post on these forums...cya guys and Merry Christmas!:)

depends on the time of day
 

i never struggle to get a game, what you must realise is the vast majority of players play arcade, and the best times are 2200-0000 gmt as this catches america and europe (where the majority of players are) online at the same time.

BOP is far from dead it just has a very small community of players. The game does have it fair share of problems just like any game but still its hands down awesome Pvp. Only the casuals don't stick around

Screw um
 

If its arcade WHO CARES..ARCADE and the little no flying kids that play it is another thing that split up the community and cause some of the problem we see.So screw the arcade players too along with everyone else who did all they could to make this game fail.And if your a adult and play arcade and take offence to this ..SCREW YOU TOO

haha
 

your not worth my time.

good come
 

Good comeback for someone with no answer.

lol
 

no flame in public forum from me.....

oh joy another f**king argument
i can count more arguments on this forum than planes produced during ww2

Hey, it must be the times you are logging on. Everytime I log on I have friends that are playing. I never have a hard time getting a game.

Hopefully patch will be here in a couple of weeks. But I don't think you going to see a huge following of people.

Funny how arcade is the most realist out of all the game modes....maybe its why most people play it....

Arcade
 

Little short post.Meaningless effort.And a low level of skill in your post.YES YOUR A ARCADE PLAYER ALRIGHT.Most people play it because they were too stupid to reset there controls so they think "it stalls to EZ in regular play"See Most players play it because its ez`er and most of the flyers is see there SUCK.And as far as being Real Yes in real life a little marker comes up to show you where to shoot..What a joke .In Arcade I can Pull a 60 degree INVERTED turn with no loss of altitude.":"A INVERTED 60 degree turn"LOL oh yes its so real..

Haha I'm just gonna leave this one ^ and get some popcorn for this thread :)

heres another forum for anyone sick of il2

LMAO - guess that game's perfect out the box, huh? No one needing a patch over there, no siree...

Dude your gonna use up your lol quota for the day. Go easy. Pace yourself :)

Gunny get off your high horse mate!!

if they want to play arcade then let them! they bought the game and can enjoy it anyway they wish. I to hate arcade with a passion, but i wont disrespect them because they play it! Calm down mate.

Your Right

Your completely correct,They bought there game .They can play it the way they would like.Im sorry I am just so pissed at all the things that went in to making this game fail and the fact that the controls were set so poorly at release that I know some play arcade because they don't understand how to set the game to play well on other levels.JUST another thing that went in to making this game fail..So Im sorry, ARCADE is like the update its a sore spot with me.BUT YOU are correct there game there choice of playing style..SORRY

Now that is funny..


And Gunny.. I know you apologised about the ARCADE! thing but I'd like to point out that there's a lot of Sim snobbery on this forum and that can be intimidating.. It's all good and well that you only fly sim, but this is a thread for the CONSOLE version, you're gonna get people on here who've never played a 'proper' sim and sometimes there's an air of superiority that comes across from some of the sim players on here that puts off new players. People who play arcade are all potential simmers.. The more they get made to feel inferior on here the less they'll get involved.

There are people on here who say "I only play Sim mode", who are actually saying "I'm better than you"

FYI.. I started playing Arcade which naturally led me on to Sim (used to play CFS2 a lot but ditched the PC in favour of a console) because that's the natural progression. So it cuts both ways

Why don't you fire up arcade mode and go and do some ridiculous moves kill some planes and have some fun... And stop shouting at everyone.

Well said +1

Goddamn it when will you kids learn to spell and use punctuation properly? Maybe it's not your first language, so fair enough. But take it down a few notches eh?

Haha, now I'll admit I'm not the best typer eaither (usually my fingers just get crossed up) but damn it pisses me off when people type like they're on a phone...

PMSL I think it is... :eek:

very eloquently put winny cheers
