I am sorry but if you think this game could ever match the likes of MW in sales then you have your head buryed in the sand, the emphasis currently is on modern warfare so the setting of il2 is not "hip" it's a sim that requires a joystick and a lot of time to learn an aicraft also it will undoutable allways require a decent pc to run and the console market has reduced the number of ppl that might have brought a pc.

There simple are not that many ppl that would buy il2 in comparison to MW unfortunately but they are the ones missing out. They spend £50 a year on a "new" game i.e. a few new textures we are going to spend ~£30 and get a whole load of complex highly detailed aircraft... If a games popularity was based on the effort a dev team put into it then everyone would be playing il2 however that is not the case

I dont have my head buried in the sand.but some here do..
I realize the "shoot em ups" appeal to a younger crowd..and this is a highly niche game...
flight sims...however..where does that divorce the right to have a game that functions well?
We have been told to "be productive here" help a new guy..post videos..all fine and good..but I'm not a programmer..not much I can do.
that's why I pay people who know that stuff and buy their products..
bottom line..you need to have the people and money to do things right...its just the way business run..your product runs/works well.it sells well..and visa versa...
I want this game to succeed..Im just always feeling a bit let down...and..its hard when there is nothing at all you can do about it..
except perhaps throw a bit more money at your pc to hope things perk upm and then you hear they are focusing on a new Battle of Moscow...
but wait..can't they fix THIS one first? I mean...whats the sense of an add on if it is just a east front CoD?
Your still going to have the same issues.
if you dont fix the core problems..which is why many of us are frustrated.but still love the game.
I think the game is really wonderful..visually..but that does not make up for its drawbacks in performance...it just doesnt..they get old.
you get tired of them..so.i guess.it means..move on to another flight sim and hope this one gets cleaned up.

For me this is the only flight sim, RoF is amazing and I will continue to support it but I prefer the ww2 era.

I am sure they will fix CoD, for me it's not a mater of if but when it will be fixed. The thing I find most annoying is that it's obvious that a lot of time and care was taken with the certain areas of the game but when it came to putting all of the carefullly crafted jigsaw pieces together they realised they were almost out of time and gaffa taped it together, of course it's going to take time to undo that and put it back together propperly but we have seen what they are capable of and it's stunning.

Thats a very good anology. We are all in this "spaceship" together, past the point of no return... To make it work we all have to pull together and get on with it, from developer, 3rd party developers and consumers alike...

If we want this to be a success we all have to be on board. There are no rats exiting a doomed spaceship!


I for one will be buying the expansion "battle for moscow" blindly! Would you all see this fail? Would you play anything less than the standed set forth here? I bloody would'nt! I know when I say these things I dont speak for one men but a dozen - my unit, 5./JG27 & 9./ZG26.

Ask not what luthier and team can do for us but what we can do for them! - ok a bit far but still...

I am a bit at a loss by those that think that the Russian Front expansion will somehow stop repairing the broken aspects of CloD.

The code for both is the same, hence repairing it for one fixes it for the other. Why is this hard to come to grips with?

Also the 3D modeling staff is getting paid to make models, not write code, so it is the most effiecient use of their time to work on the expansion.

This is a reasonable way to allocate resources is it not?
