@Blackdog
My criticism is meant as constructive and should be taken that way. I also think it fair to defend the game I choose to play because it is better than CLoD. If CLoD met my expectations, then I would be playing that. It's up to 1C to fix it or not.

Nothing wrong with that. I'm just doing the same and providing my personal opinion, which happens to differ from yours. I'm not here to convince anyone, just drawing some exposure to the reasons a lot of people like the new system better than the old one. Happy flying and clear sixes, no matter what sim and difficulty settings you choose to fly

If anyone wants an arcade server he can run it without any problems. CloD just gives us the option to have CEM on unlike any arcade game. It is good to have more options isn't it?

Another example is RoF where 3 out of 4 populated servers have CEM on.

Some people prefer arcade setting however. There is nothing wrong with this. They can start their own server on their PC every time they go online and find friends on this forums to fly together.

That's pretty interesting and i find it very encouraging. I didn't know there was such a strong demand for CEM-enabled servers, good to know.
