Real Sign of DOOM!
 

It is Saturday, 12pm and NO ONE is playing multiplayer in the ENTIRE world! Now that is a for sure sign that multiplay for this game has a cancer that is eating players away every day and even after a patch, if there is one and it addresses all the issues(which is VERY doubtful), this games MP will not last long.

Bought the PC, IL2-1946 and WOW!!!!! All the planes are there, no freaken greedy ass DLC scams, better flight and damage models, tons of players all times of the day and many more great features. Too bad the xbox 360 MP did not catch on and become as popular as the PC version...sad!

The difference is that the 1946 dev's actually cared about the product and the community.

My IL-2 1946 is on order, I'll see you on there for a PROPER game :)

Do most people play through Hyperlobby still?

saturday 12pm has never been a good time for this game :confused:.. for me anyways. I have 'never' been able to find a game before 18:00, even on weekend.

Not a sign of doom anyways, yesterday evening I played about 8 games sim TD with 6+ people :)

Game developers keep trying to convert the popular PC games to a watered down versions for consoles.
You can't expect such a game as IL-2 to be compared in any way to BoP. Hardware limitations will not allow it to happen.

The original IL-2 series community has had a long and hardcore following for many years. The mission builders and skinners are some of the most dedicated modders in the flight sim genre.

In my local gamestation i was amazed at how many pre owned copies of IL2:BoP was on the shelves. Not a nice sight at all :(

Game over im afraid guys, game over


If you cant find a game, does that suprise you? thnigs have gotten ridiculously out of hand with this game and even the hardcore players are having their patience pushed.

Im out.

Don't worry so much Foz, gamers are a frickled lot. When the patch arrives, players will return.
Games go through cycles, there is always a big hoopla when a new games are released.
Then the very first thing gamers start screaming for is a patch! This has happened in just about every popular game I've ever played.
Players will leave but the gamers who really enjoy the game will be reluctant to let it go.

You can find servers easily for iL-2 1946 via xfire. Very handy program that can also track on wich server your friends are playing. And it covers a-l-o-t of games :)
Just a tip guys :cool:
