this is a simulation not a stupid ARCADE for little cildren.

Wow, what a stupid thing to say.
I know of at least 8 people who started playing IL-2 because they initially got the console version of BoP. They all started out on Arcade mode and within 8 months they've gone through Arcade>Realistic>Simulator modes on BoP and then gone and downloaded 1946 because they wanted more. These are console gamers crossing over. The more units Oleg sells of this game the better as far as I'm concerned and if that means making it more accessable then so be it.

To call arcade childish is, well, chidish. Why cut off a whole new audience just because you want some wierd 'sim elite'
