I can't help but laugh. Just trying to help others get off the serious side.

Everything is fine, it will take time of course for a 100% complete BOB COD.

I heard this phrase many times in my life, "No news is good news".

Really and you can make that statement how, your just a info-less as the rest of us nearmiss as you have said in the past.

Sorry mate I dont like sayin this stuff because I've respect for your integrity and some of the other long term supporters in the IL2 community but it does look as if there is a major communication problem here, false statements about things like full screen being fixed, when clearly the boss hasnt checked the patch or knows it dont work yet it gets released anyway.

I am patient and i will wait with the majority, but the complaints I see here on these forums are not that the game is crap because it isnt.
Its because for a long time we have been told one thing and then something else happens or it turns out not to be true and developers knew it wasnt true.
Seriously you cant say that you dont see and sympathise with some people's unhappines based on that premiss and that fact that they have paid their money and entered into this senario.

Also just throwing this out there as a thought ~while I do think it is wrong but funny to ridicule peoples frustration with the usual sarcasam, what if they complainers are right? doesnt that complain/ridicule senario just tell the possible unscruplious ideas that there will always be people on their forums to shoot down/silence the problems?

I'm not going to work myself into a corner making a bunch of trash talk. It's too unbecoming.

I have confidence Luthier is doing his best with what he has.

The bottom line?

"No message is a message"

Many thanks to the folks who have directly and indirectly helped me over the years. No matter which way you lean on this issue, the message above is true.

I'm surprised no one has really gotten to this point.

1C has now opened up this forums to allow MODS discussions, and direct links to them. This is HUGE.

The TD has completed some marvelous improvements to IL2, added to that some of the mods available are absolutely unbelievable. By that I mean they are exceptionally well done.

The MODS including maps, sounds and effects turn the old IL2 into a completely new adventure for all of us.

Yes, we want something better and our expectations are high for that something better with BOB COD. I guess for the time being that will be out of the question.

I fire up the IL2 with TD updates and selected MODS. I quite honestly, enjoy it. If we didn't have the quality of improvements in IL2 I might really be put off, but that isn't the case. I'm thinking the IL2 is very viable with TD updates and Mods for the next couple years, because the BOB COD is wrapped around one small time frame in the WW2 only. I can fly every war theater and hundreds of aircraft in the improved IL2, including carrier based missions. It will be a long time before any of the features of BOB COD come close to the improved IL2. Remember this... the TD and 3rd party mod developers are still improving on the IL2.

For sure... if we didn't have expectations for the BOB COD, we would be enjoying the improved IL2. All our thoughts and energies would primarily be focused on TD releases and 3rd party mods.

I've found a much much better tactical war simulation to spend my time with. It's called "Angry Birds" and boy is it a challenge.
