As much as I would like CloD to succeed, it won't be any time soon. I have access to the WoP beta and there are realism setting that make it close to IL-2 1946. Yes, the idea is to make an MMO accessible to anyone so it's more arcade, but the developer are taking serious simmers' preferences into account. It may look how it looks, but at least it runs smooth and you don't need to sell your soul to get a PC that can run it at 30 fps all the time (hell, I get 60 constant)
Whatever anyone thinks, the sad truth is Gaijin has a current-gen graphics engine that takes advantage of all the expensive hardware we have and CloD is still a bug-ridden stutter fest. From a consumer point of view, all the programming issues are none of my concern. With the problem this sim has, it's not worth the money.
