Right before I joined up they remade their website and forums to reflect CoD rather than IL2, and there was much anticipation and high hopes for it.
Then reality struck and given the condition of the game at release and that it persists in that condition we have not switched over.
Honestly in talking to everyone I can over there (we have over 50 active members) most have given up on CoD. Most have just written it off due to its condition, and then compared to UP3 its just a no brainier. We play a very long campaign spanning the entirety of the war and CoD cant support that.
There are still a few that are die-hard CoD believers but for the most part people have told me that they hope we don't switch over. I know of more than a few that will simply leave the group if we switch.
