Thumbs up Cliffs of Dover is a lot of FUN!!!!

You know, I'm having a real fun time with this game. last night I made myself a nice, fun little mission over France. Me in my 109 taking on 3 spitfires along the coast. It was 5 am in the morning, I added storm clouds to the map in the FMB. Full engine management on and 100% realism. Had a fantastic time hunting down those spits I can tell ya....!!

I just want to say thanks to the team for making the best world war 2 flight sim ever created. The cockpits are mind-blowing, the 109 cockpit is just freakin amazing looking!

This game is only going to get better and better with time, like a fine wine.

keep up the great work guys, and don't let the complainers get you down.

But that's the point ! I can play it my way, how I want to. with the aircraft I choose, and the skins I like, at the time of day I want. AND on top of that, there is a single player campaign if I want it.

Nice Content!
The misconception here is that this "thing" is not a game, it is a simulator, that is a very different thing and is a lot more important give the tools for make your own content that give you the content allready builded. Has the other CoD, wich is a game, some tools to make your own missions? Think about that. A simulator is always supported by the community. This way in a month you will have a lots of content, missions and campaigns ready to add to the sim made by users. A lot more than developers could do.

Your telling me that you wouldnt be able to make a mission like that WITHOUT the use of a mission builder..... i have made plenty of 3v1 by just changing the aircraft and number in a quick mission and i have only used QMB to apply skins!!!

I would conceive CoD as a Game in Contrast to techincal simulations like DCS-A10, which is totally about the technical details. CoD on the contrary has a technical component which plays a minor role in my eyes. They seem to be complicated, however the mechanism behind it is very easy to conceive and doesn´t require to push approx 80 buttons and w8t 10 mintes to start the (A-10) plane.

Fun it is. Soon as the game is stable and runs as best as it should I'll be recommending it to friends without a doubt.

FMB is great to use; and what better way to add longetivity to a game..

I play the 128 plane mission I made, that's something else I tell ya.

Black Ops isn't a WW2 flight sim.

Get a grip on reality.

By the way, that other COD, let's say Black Ops, currently and at launch has way more multiplayer maps than this game. No need to create content, slick, as Treyarch keeps putting out more paid content. I'd be glad to pay for more content for this game produced by professionals, as soon as Maddox Games hires some <rimshot>, and as soon as it finishes the frigging game. And it is a game. Make no mistake.

Black Ops also happens to run on a heavily modified Quake 3 engine, yet that game often looks way better and performs better than this game run on the same hardware.
Wow a poster comparing an FPS to a flight sim, now i have seen it all...

He only pointed out that people can create missions for this CoD. You didn't have a response to that, so you moved the goalposts.

And I found it ridiculous that in a brand new game one has to resort to content creation tools to have "a lot of fun", the implication being that this game is exceedingly short of content made by supposed professionals.
If you don't like the content, don't buy the game.
