If we can make it stable, we'd be using HL too. But there's no point until the game gets there in the 1st place.

As far as the FMB, it's very similar. And there isn't a single thing you can't do in the FMB (besides the broken stuff) compared to the old game that would require any scripting/coding. The main difference is not having a set mode distinguishing online types.

So the 1% about people not coders is probably true, but it only adds to what you can do between both games. You can still spawn planes, ships, trucks, or any other object without a single line of code.

All the other stuff you did to setup missions in the old game were all created by 3rd party - Dgen, FBDj, etc., etc.,

I understand the need for COOP integration and eventually somebody will probably make a program that does all the work for you, just like the old game. But you're making it sound as if what you did FMB-wise / comparing the old and new IL2, one requires code - which is false. But with the new one it allows you to expand missions with programming if you want to / know how.
Im not comparing the new/old.

The difference is the new is sometimes it's unnecessarily difficult, look at the old ac delay spawn, then the new for example ??

If you took 100 that can use the FMB in IL2 then gave them the CoD one 99% wouldn't know how to use the scripting only 1% would is what I meant.

I have made around 2-3 thousand missions in IL2 series and used sometimes the Lowngrin DCG and Starshoys in game DCG in the past to host squad campaigns under CooP conditions, we have tried DF & MDS it don't really work.

Yup its a bad sales point leaving out the CooP interface, but there's more pressing things to sort first for 1C Team and hopefully we will all get what we want from the thing at some point.
