I hope you understand what does mean this statement: after 11 years, this is a step backward from IL2, at least for CoD. This is not acceptable at all.

However my question was also for new clouds (shape, DX10 ecc. ecc.) not only new options but somenthing really different from IL2 and the other sim.

Thank for your time, and to put your face here.

Oleg 4 years held a programmer who worked clouds for CloD. Later he was fired, the result was not. I don't know all details of this story. In the end we didn't get anything good and new.

Hi Blacksix,

Is there anything in the grapevine about looking at the net code? I understand the core engine is the priority - maybe they both go hand in hand?

It's a real mess online once you get to around 50 players. That's not even close to the advertised 120+. This makes online scenarios rather simplified and confined unless you want to fly around for an hour and not find another player. I can deal with ships that fly, triggers that don't work, spawn points that are faulty, but without some sort of help on the net code side, it makes the game unplayable for many.

I've asked numerous times if there's any sort of a 1c guide for net speed and server settings without any response. I'll glady add whatever is needed to the config for best online performance, but realize all the servers are flying blind in this regard. The net code needs some major improvement.

I realize the majority of the dev team is working on the sequel, but how do you guys expect the online crowd to purchase it, if the current online code is not working well? We can not have the same thing again. This needs addressed badly.

Thanks.

To answer this question, I have to tell you what will be in the sequel.

you solved the netcode problem in the sequel? is that what you meant to say? or that you are GOING to solve them for the next game?

In the sequel will be another netcode. I can't comment this as I said.

this seriously concerns me, another net code and that you said nothing new for clod, which means we stuck with this shoddy one

heres to preying that you can fix clods one, but why bother making a new one if u can?

i know you cant answer that just saying it anyway.

This does not sound good.....I hope it some sort of translation problem. Are you saying that we won't be able to merge COD with the Sequel to be able to use the new types of weather on the COD maps. I won't jump to any conclusions, and know there will be an announcement at some point, but I'm a little more pessimistic on the success of the series and business model. The merging of sequels was very successful because you not only bought new aircraft and maps, but it improved the quality of the sequels before it. I know the business model has to change to allow more cash flow, but that can be accomplished by charging for some aircraft like complex bombers. A sort of hybrid IL-2/ROF business model.
