Ok, you spend $50 on a game and it does not work. Suck it up. Spend another $50 on RoF or DCS A10 and you'll be simming you're heart out.

Apparently the developers think there's nothing to bee seen or to be exited about right now. Only one thing to do. Keep on walking nothing to see here. Recovering 10 year Il2 addict but right now my "give a Phunck 'O meter" sits at O.
Imho it is quite delusional to expect any developer to produce a wwii flightsim in the next years, if ever.
Especially to expect a company so close to bankruptcy as 777 to "pick up the ball".
To be financially successfull a wwii sim, with the usually in this forum expected detail level, would need about 2$ for a ground object, 50$ for a map and 50$ for each more complicated model (plane or ship).
When i see the emotions running high for spending 15$ - to 70$ for a whole packet, i really can't see any customers for that.
