At the rate they release new aircraft and maps it would take 20 years for them to cover one theater of operations. And that does not include developing good multiplayer online coding.

They pose no threat to the IL2 franchise.

I doubt I would buy it just for the P51, as jets have no interest to me beyone the Korean War period. Too many darned buttons.

But I wish them well, they do make a quality, if limited, product.
Judging by the performance of the last patch, I wouldn't qualify CLOD as "online friendly". Since the last patch I wasn't able to keep the game running (online) for more than an hour and half.
This is my usual online experience this days. We take three 110's with bombs, warm them up and head for enemy targets. During the mission at least two of us drop out with a game crash. Rinse and repeate.

I wouldn't call this a good online game.
