I'm a bit surprised at the hostile reaction to this (wait, no I'm not)
Seems like a valid question to me. Games developers have realised the best way to keep people playing is to keep giving out unlocks, just look at CoDuty. I've prestiged 7 times and I hate myself for it! For what? new interesting ways to kill stuff and a nice badge... Problem with unlocks in a Historically accurate sim is that as soon as you apply any new wepon it'll mess the accuracy up. The only real way I could see this working would be to have (like CoDuty) customisable player cards and ranking (for online) or even a space on your aircraft for unlockable nose art. Nothing too outlandish. The guy in the video wants a b-17 for killing 20 Spitfires.. I wouldn't be surprised if he's never even played a flight sim before. He dosn't get that the rewards from a flight sim are more cerebral.. Sign of the times.

I know it's a much smaller group at that end but for the no realism guys it will be flash in pot for a majority, usually they are waiting for the next Cod to come out... 1C will receive some money from them buying clod but very few will go on to purchase the next installation..

You still don't get it
 If you ever have developed any serious commercial software, maybe you would understand better.There are simulators, and there are combat simulator games and there are just games. No sense to combine them all. Takes too much time and money. And yes, games sell more than combat simulator games. We all know that Aim for your market and make best possible product to your customers. You just can't please everyone, never, period. BTW: If my sisters 11 years old child started playing Il2 8 years ago and is still playing, I don't see why someone else could not. And he plays console games too Quote:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The game developer must do everything in its power to make this game as hard as possible to make sure as few people as possible will even bother with it. That way we can all have that "select few" club we all so much yearn for. The plus side of that is, of course, that we will have to wait 12-16 months for each update/addon due to money constraints. They sould also make sure that everyone have to play with the same settings on every single server available. Goes without saying it has to be full real settings, naturally. Futher more u should have to register your product number for your Track ir5 and Saitek rudder pedals or the game wont start. Anyone who cant bother with FR isn't cut out for this and should so* off.

One of the most miserable time I've had was on line just after the stats had been reset for the month. I had (by pure luck ) managed to get my kill/ deaths up to 4/0! I only needed one more kill to become an Ace!
It took me two days of continually looking over my shoulder, trying picking my moment to get that last kill to make myself ace. I was a complete bundle of nerves, Finally I found my victim! I set myself up perfectly and dove in for the attack! Just at that time my wife came into the room threw her arms around me and gave me a big pashy kiss on the face and told me it was time for dinner! I over shot and became disorientated and before I could disenguage myself from my wifes embrace, I'd had been riddled with bullets and cannon shells and my aircraft spiraled down in a flames! I haven't taken too much note of winning streaks since then!
