Firstly, we FINALLY have a sort of realistic assessment of where things were (mostly always) at. It has taken a long time...it is only a real shame we didn't have this much, much sooner, and without the sarcasm and window-dressing. I used to work in a highly pressured dev house with large financial backing, mile-stones, the whole nine yards...and these sorts of responses are fine...in-house and on internal email systems. But I don't know of a single project manager - who wants to keep his job - who would let them out into the wider world. 'What goes on in dev stays in dev', or words to that effect. I'm amazed. Personality, yes, credibility...I don't know. That's your call. Personally I'd have a big recent hit under your belt before I took that line. As for your more technical responses, I am truly baffled by some. They fall into slack-jaw territory. But it doesn't really matter - that game is dead anyway. You said so, and a handful of us knew it from the beginning. (and boy do the rabid 'usual suspect' element now look silly. Upended on facts, rapidly shifting the goalposts to personalities. Good luck with that one!) But above all it's just nice to hear some answers to the criticism, and that alone. The effort of replying is worthwhile, believe it or not.

If you think BOB II has better clouds you've got eye sight problems, and that screenshot is a perfect example, don't get me wrong BOB II is a GREAT game, many aspects of it are excellent, the AI in particular is unrivaled by any other flight sim, but it just can't hold a candle to bob for it's environment and lighting, and yes that means the clouds too, not to mention the depth of modeling at the aircraft level, Wings of prey is an arcade shooter and does so much less then COD it's like comparing Team Fortress 2 to ARMA 2, chalk and cheese mate, chalk and cheese.
As far as Luither's posts go, I personally say excellent responses for the most part, I got the humour he intended pretty much straight away, although I can see why some people got a bit antsy over them, text doesn't always convey what is ACTUALLY meant, and the tone can sometimes be misunderstood. I liked the general tone of the answers, they seemed like real answers coming from a real person, and for that I'm very grateful, and his frank honesty has given me faith in the sequel, and where the series is headed, some were certainly not some of the answers I wanted, but I've always preferred brutal honesty over pretty BS so they doesn't bother me too much, you always know where you stand with it, and thats the way I like it. Although some of the replies I've read here from some forum members has only confirmed to me at least the type of people they really are, hopefully they really do stay away this time.

I'd settle for standard IL2 1946 clouds to be honest.

Thankyou for clarifying some of your answers. I realize that the rude manor in which some of them were asked can make a civil answer difficult. Yes the forums are very negative, but I still think the silent majority understand the difficulties, and will continue to support the series, "IF" the reviews are good, and substantial improvements are made to many of COD's issues in the Sequel.
You mentioned that the community hasn't yet provided the level of input you had hoped for in regards to campaign building etc. There was less community input because the sim wasn't playable for a large portion of the community that could have made these improvements. Now that you have addressed many of the performance issues this aspect should improve. Campaign builders seem to be having issues using some complex features in the FMB. Are there problems in the FMB, and if so what problems are your team addressing? You mentioned there won't be anymore aircraft built for COD. I understand this, but it should be mentioned whether its obvious or not that some aircraft built for the Sequels will be available and historical to the Channel map. Or am I wrong to assume this?
