With this sentence, you only show your full ignorance of the problem.
No this can't be solved easily by banning cheaters. Every honest onliner know this...
... please stop talking about what you don't know.

You're double wrong there:
1) third party and community development of the sim has been intensive during the last 6 years... and very wellcome by all the community who praised all the patches and free addons in which this third party and community work was delivered.
2) No developper of any other game had got a continuous and constant support during 6 years. ALL OTHER have stopped long before. Nobody has forced M:1C to stop the support after 6 years, it is a plain normal and understandable decision in order to work on the following game. I can tell you that The distributor, Ubi, was absolutly not pleased to see M:1C continue the support of IL2 during 6 years and thus sacrifying valuable ressources for the developpment of the follow-on game they pay for....

From this, I'm sorry to tell you that what's striking you.... is just your ignorance and your wrong look of the situation.
