As I said - I think this "cooperative element" is overrated as it only applies to "the dogfight". There is no relation to the historical operations because noone will fly a single-seat Il-2, much less a whole gaggle of them, but will clamor for the latest fighters and fighter-bombers. People don't read the briefing, they don't care about historical backgrounds, either. I don't need to deal with this when creating offline stuff.
I did fly online for years, but I've grown out of it. My interest is military history and "reenactment" of individual operations, not just a sportive contest between several humans. However this "sportive element" is all online is about currently. Maybe SoW will allow for a drastic change by allowing AI units on dogfight servers (Coops are too time-intensive and too "canned" for me).
