No coop in this game?

[PotNoodles]

I bought this game a year ago now, but I haven't played it due to the state it was in. I have been looking forwards to the patch, but I noticed in one post someone said there was no online coop like in IL2. Please can someone tell me this is a joke and you can build your own missions and play with your friends online.

It's a joke, just take any single mission and put a spawn point on your airfield and set which planes you want to fly with your buddies, presto!

ATM you can fly COOP using this lobby http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...ht=coop+script

Check out this mission pack for instance http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...ht=coop+script

There is no CooP mode in Cliffs of Dover like in IL2 1946

This link is a vote for a coop mode, and shows the majority's feelings towards the issue. (Ataros has already placed the link for the bugtracker "vote" above aswell).

And this.. is another discussion, which you've probably already read, but can't (or don't want to) believe

thanks for all the replies, but can you also build your own missions this way and are they as easy to build like in IL2?

I've built alot of missions for IL2:46, and I've tinkered a bit with the IL2:COD FMB, and it looks like it operates the same way, but with many extra options.

Unfortunately, I haven't even attempted online yet with all unstability issues, so I can't tell you how it runs in ClOD first hand. That last link will tell you what is missing from what you are familiar with.

Of course, like I said, just create an offline mission in the FMB where you let's say, intercept a bunch of bombers.

1. Remove your flight if you've created one.
2. Place an aircraft spawn point (in the objects menu) on your home airfield.
3. Set up the spawn point properties the way you like it, e.g how many planes allowed to spawn there, which types etc.
4. Create a server in the MP menu, load the mission and notify your buddies to hop in.

There is no COOP mode for CLOD, so there will be no online wars etc, which sadly will lead to the series death if it is not resolved IMHO.

How is this similar to an IL2:46 coop?
To me, that sounds alot like an IL2:46 dogfight map (with AI).
