I like to see things from my point of view, and Gamespot is painting a bad picture only. From the first moments I thought that the game was unfinished if this is the result of 7 years of hard work. But looking the thinks deeply, I see planes modeled accurately both the exterior and the interior, you can see the internal structure and it is doing part of the damage model. Following this logic every plane required an incredible amount of time because the research, the modeling, etc. In my opinion the simulator is finished but rough, it needs to be "tuned". And it can tune everything there, from what I can see seeing the first patches. For sure, Ubisoft has almost killed this simulator with a crazy policy: anti epileptic filter, probable forcing the dev's team to finish in advance their work. I know this because Ubisoft has killed another sim: Silent Hunter 5, a potential good work from a beautiful romanian team, totally bugged, unfinished and with no more than 2 small patches. Killed. In the perspective of the future, I hope that COD and the team will survive to this bad trend, I see a lot of enthusiasts here and on SIMHQ (never seen 700-800 users in a forum before), and we support the future development of COD.
Henry Ford was a master about negative trends, I think that COD should follow his way.

ps
sorry for my english

Though it pains me too, the review is a fair call on the current game. Even without the obvious issues with the game engine, there is precious little content to simulate the Battle of Britain in real depth.

What were the so called beta testers doing?
I know two of them, here's what they told me after release: dozens of bugs were reported, and not fixed before release. Most are still not fixed today.
