I downloaded the IL-2 demo when it first came out. Way beyond anything that was out there at the time. Never really got into it untill Pacific Fighters was released because the computer I had at the time could not do justice to the game.
It wasn't until a few years later that I had a machine that could run Il-2 at full settings.
I guess that thats going to be similar with COD. It'll be a few years before any computer will be able to run it at full quality settings.
Now just looking at COD as an addition to the IL-2 series, as long as it as good as Il2, I'll be getting this sim and it will be value for money. The Battle of Britain was one area that was left out of the Il2 series up till now (not talking about mods here). All of Olegs sims and expansions have been good value so far. I doubt COD will be any different.
Before being too negative, maybe people should place the competing simulations under the same level of scrutiny as well.
Cheers
