I disagree with your assement. I consider myself the norm, I have two children in college, a career and a seemingly unending number of family obligations to attend to. My free time is very limited. I want the most streamlined approach possible in order to maximize my enjoyment. The vast majority of folks, for instance, play Call of Duty- MW3 ( 6 million copies sold on first day ) for the same reason ,log on and away you go play as long as you like no crash to desk top etc. The large well organized, well managed organizations will always succeed. For roughly the same price as CLOD anyone can pick up a " counsel game " of choice and it will work right out of the box. There is nothing evil about product development, implentation ,marketing and customer support. No computer settings, minimuim system requirements to screw with, etc.

My problem is an obsession with World War aircraft, and I am a private pilot.

I certainly hope CLOD is moved off " life support '. It would be best for 1c to sell what they have developed to a corporation with the resources to program all the features advertised post haste before the very limited interest, wanes completly.

There is nothing noble about an under funded enterprize with limited resources producing, or rather attempting to produce software for a nitche PC market. After all is said, weather in defense and support of, or in criticism both opinions equally justified, it comes down to satisfying the consumer. While i do not consider $ 50 expensive, my time is worth much more. Hopefully, they resolve the issues shortly.
