The most absurd statement ever IMO.

It has nothing to do with crying about it. It is just that we can't be bothered any more. In the beginning when we had only one pack it was easy. Hell, flying heavies was loads of fun, but it didn't last very long. Nowadays where every server has different requirements I just can't be bothered. The mere fact we now have a 'red' and 'blue' packs is enough to turn me down.
Those of us that flew before and after mods appeared know the difference. I would gladly trade a encyclopedia of planes where every server has different requirements for a stock game with only 2 flyable planes. Any day of the week.
The bottom line is - mods are great for offline game play, but kill the online uniformity. I long for the times when you could join any givens server with only one version of the game.
For me, IL2's AI is too dumb to play it in offline mode, especially once you start dueling with human opponents. There is no going back.
