So why do you stay frustrated like this? Just leave and never look back. There are a million of things and games to fill your day with happy laughter's. Just do it, if not for you so for the benefit of the rest of us.

Not leaving
Not a hater
Not wanting to see failure, wanting success!
Not a fanboy
Just frustrated and exercising my right to comment here...just like you.

That is an excellent point! Why are you still here?

I'm here because while I don't think 1C is up to the task I purchased the game and would love to see it succeed. It's a love/hate thing. Maybe I'm crazy.:g rin:

Pfft. Aparently it hasn't gone into some heads yet that Maddox Games is merely a small part of 1C, the mother corporation, and that 1C could buy out 777 Studios out of the secretary's thank-you box - without making a noticable dent into it. If CloD fails the development studio will either be shut down completely or reassigned to other more financially interesting projects by the suits who make the decisions.

Thanks, but in all honesty is got to a

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz point

DX9 + sequel = backwards: Based on the CLOD business model (which is the opposite of the long term successful IL-2 - a now defunct company) they are working backwards focusing on DX9 as well as the sequel - which we will not buy as CLOD has shown to be a failure, without redemption nearly 2 years later with more bugs and incomplete. It was less buggy before they started downgrading, patching, injecting Alpha code as seeming proof that they cannot fix it as promised.


As many have inferred it will only fail as the market is not DX9 based + since CLOD was sold in a pre Alpha stage + nearly two years later the sole programmer who is employed is focused on a Sequel to generate a few new sales $ for a bankrupt project. What else CAN they do with the new 1C Maddox business model? The actions seen by the independent consumer is a veil of misrepresentations in order to avoid current/inevitable bankruptcy. Why would the consumer spend more money and receive no concrete product in the exchange?


We are all very disappointed but our flight clubs will not buy another sequel unless CLOD has been redeemed by The Company in a VERY BIG WAY from the initial release. We have already honoured our end paying the Sales Price but the company has not honoured their end.

Hope for the best but we won't toss More money (sequel of otherwise) into the bottomless pit. A sad lost cause.

I know you "must",
it is the delaying the patch because you want to include DX9 support that I do not like.

Thanks for the information regarding CODcompare.
Now, I am looking forward to the sequel I hope that it will come soon! (as I said some months ago, even if I am not "entirely happy" with CoD at this state, I will keep on buying your products!).

Too bad not so many such optimists here.
