Probably the best review of Clod I've yet read. Very balanced and fair.

I like the ending. "Patience will be rewarded" Good review.

Great review!

(The first thing you will want to do is turn off the Cliffs of Dover menu theme music! It sounds like it was recorded by a manic Russian organist on his Nintendo Wii DJ program.)

How true!

CONCLUSION

Buy Cliffs of Dover.

Like a good wine, it can be played now, but it will be better with age. Patience will be rewarded.

Also true... as long as I will not turn to alchoholism with all this testing while waiting

I think is harsh on mp and soft on sp, but some good lines...

' Where BOBII creates the impression the player is flying against an almost human (and not superhuman) opponent, Cliffs of Dover makes the player feel he is playing against a monkey.'

Why i have always preferred online because no ai pilot can match human.

Good one!

Different people have different ideas about gameplay. HeinKill and I share an interest in historical campaigns - simply for the fact that only they can manage to recreate the atmosphere of the real operation (within the constraints of the engine). Online, on the other hand, will never be that "realistic" since realism and people having fun don't go along well. Most are not interested in the details that make or break a campaign for me and I am not interested in the never-ending dogfights which many players consider the heart of a flight sim while I try to look at the bigger picture and try to put the aerial ops into a framework which allows me to see their role as it really was.
So IMO the review is spot on, although I disagree on the german campaign which I also consider a bad joke. But that's just me.
