LOl, well said mazex, I seem to remember the ... drafting that when on behind the modding community scene as well.

Vast numbers of (strictly) online players are simply waiting for SoW to come out. Myself included. It all came down to - having to install this and that to be able to fly here and there has reached the point - we simply can't be bothered anymore. I know fair amount of people that even stopped playing as soon as the m*** became widespread.
I want a full package that I don't need to update every now and then, and I will gladly take any minor flaws and imperfections that come with it. As long as the emphasis is on the simulation part or overall balance between two sides. There is no point in beating a 'dead horse', IMO.

While I agree that SOW will be the true re-unifier, There are many of us who are eagerly awaiting 4.10, as it will have many "mod" features that are indeed a very good thing, yet it will end all this UP(blue) vs. HSFX(red) nonsense, not to mention other incompatibilities (two different versions for Zuti 1.13 that do not work with one another on CRT=2 servers, for example) and let those of us who choose to, stop dealing with all the switchers, tools, files, and other assorted hindrances to what is supposed to be a fun pastime. Not the second job it has become, just to get online.
The number of former online players sitting it out because of this crazy mash up of different mods, versions, etc, is far greater than the total mod fanbois think it is. Be sure.

However, banning the mods in 4.10 would not fix the old wounds it would split the community even further. Leave well enough alone. |

That applies to me...I must say that I miss the on-line excitement, man against man is sometimes very challenging, and exciting when your teamed up. I'm looking forward to returning to on-line play with SOW...I hope the shi% heads don't ruin it anytime soon.

Hopeless, BadAim?
I would not go that far. Myself and a small cadre of friends still find much satisfaction flying together online. Is it like the early glory days of the sim? No. But it is still fun. It is sometimes not as easy as the old days. I have more than once had someone come into a map I was hosting in the last couple months and somehow manage to fly the Silverplate B29 with unlimited atomic bombs, in a 1940 or '41 plane set, and grind things to a halt. So I just shut down, restart with a password in place and we carry on. Don't give up hope, it's still fun to fly.
