Which leads us to the usual reply "Clod is like no other game, as it is far superior to all of them", which leads to usual reply "you must be joking, have you seen Crysis 2 or other major modern titles?", which leads to next reply "they have nice graphics but small maps", which leads to next reply "exactly! Clod devs should find what makes the game unplayable, be it huge map, or too many buildings, or windmills working with wind and offer some solution", which leads to next reply "...", LOOP.

OK... 1st CLOD is a flight sim, not a FPS... consequently you need one hell of a CPU to run something that tends toward replicating reality... CLOD is not even close to replicating the real thing, its uses tables... not even "blade theory"... But still, the faster your CPU the better (once the bugs are worked out). And eventually the CPU will be the bottleneck.
The rest is eye candy. Even if you have the faster GPU on the market, if your CPU is not up to part... then you get the shaft... So it becomes as balancing act...
Give it time... and this sim will blow you away.
If your are pissed at spending 50$ 6 month before it was "ready"... then take confort in the fact that at he current prevailing rate of interest (of savings accounts) it cost you about 25 cents (that's accoutning for time value of money for all the un$%?& t%?&* outhere)...
