CoD in its present form suits the casual lone wolf DF server flyer as it has no "soul" or community as of yet.

Until it becomes more user friendly and Squad orientated it will remain as it is a DF server quake game.

Lessons should have been learnt and integrated into CoD from the way people use IL2 1946 to keep the continuity and migration simpler.

The Hyperlobby community has been supporting new users to IL2 1946 for more years than I can remember, leading to increased sales
and generally keeping a huge interest gong with the IL2 series.

I cant see a few Dog Fight servers on Steam holding user interest for long.

I agree that COD still needs alot of other work, but one of the few servers with any people in it, is the ATAG server where most people are flying missions together on comms. The missions are more COOP related, than airquake. Both sides have ground targets and organize flights of bombers some with multiple people in the same bomber, others fly escort, while others provide cover over the target area. This have very little in commone with airquake.
