Mods haven't killed it...they've brought it back to life!
Why oh why do we have to have the same argument over and over and over again...
I challenge the Anti-Mod camp to name any significant flight sim that has been degraded or reduced in quality by the addition of third party or community developed Mods?
And in balance i'll offer the following examples of Sims that have been improved by the addition of theses supposedly awful community Mods....
Falcon 4.0
Lock On Modern Air Combat
Enemy Engaged Comanche Havok
Janes F/A18
Combat Flight Simulator 3
European Air War
Silent Hunter III
Dangerous Waters
And thats just the games I am familiar with, in that I own them and have played them in both the Vanilla and Modded versions and can say without fear of contradiction that the Modded versions are more immersive, more engaging, more complex and more realistic than the Un-Modded versions...
If anyone can come up with a similar list (ideally from personal experience, not Hear-Say) of Simulators that have suffered from community based modding, then maybe there is an argument against it...
If not, then can people stop repeating the same old arguments again and again...because they simply don't stack up...

i think he ment online.
and not only with known friends , also at open to all "events".
in my personal opinion is using the 6DOF hack online already a cheat !
and when im reading on these AAA forums that someone used it on the WoP servers (even with crt02 setting there) , i'm not very happy with this situation..............
in general i would have nothing against these hacks IF the server/host could prevent them succesfully if he wants - but as it looks like this is not the case in the moment.
and i doubt it will be ever in the il2 series.
in SoW it will be different , there will be the possibility to mod - but the server/host will be ablte to prevent any mod if he wants, as long as the next hacker comes along..............................
