I have to be honest I've joined the dark side. I saw both Borderlands and Forza 3 on sale last weekend and decided to trade in IL2. The MP was underpopulated from day one, especially on realistic and sim mode, the patch turned into vapourware, the German cockpits never materialised, unrealistic goals for MP unlocks and 800msp for the DLC all told me this game was never going to have a decent community or worth hanging onto.
Shame I wanted this game for years, but that they never tested it enough to find out it's very hard to be credited with a kill online, killed this game stone dead online, the day it launched. Most people tried it once and never came back, that's if they were lucky enough not to be confused by the stupid message about the server being down when there were simply no servers running when searching and had actually found a game.
I'll probably be back if they ever make a sequel, but FFS test the MP next time, a shoot down = a kill and better lobbies please.
