Look at all the players on MP!

I think we have to stop thinking hyperlobby numbers of 1000 people on multiple servers, and start thinking in terms of RoF numbers, with 40-50 people playing on one or two servers.
It is sad, but I think thats the way its going to be.

I believe that the reason behind this is mostly because of the high end specs necessary to play the game decently. Considering the buggy game quality of the moment and the aforementioned high pc specs, few people are getting in CoD and still playing Il-2. Things will change in time, but it will be a troubled, long one.
