To Pup & Kryptonite
I've never had a game where no one played it during the first week. I understand there is a lot of SP content, but I don't believe people are not going to have an MP game until they have completed it all.
This game is DOA. 90% of owners will only play arcade anyway, most quit in disgust when they realised they needed to do ten times more damage to an enemy plane than in SP mode to have any chance of scoring a kill, and then most likely they would be cheated out of a score by a crash or bail out. Most of them tried a couple of MP games and never came back.
I've had 1 simulator match with 3 players, 1 realistic dogfight with 8 players, 5 of whom quit during the game after spining into the ground for the umpteenth time and a few arcade games with a half a dozen players. All in 5 days.
I've never come across a game with such a poor amount of players online in launch week. I'm going to trade in this against a copy of Beatles Rockband that is coming out Friday, I would recommend IL2 to anybody, but not for MP it was DOA.
