Actually, I said yesterday that 'presumably, nothing' will happen today and I was right again - I don't want to be right on this!
So forgive me if I can't share your continued enthusiasm about the 'support' that's being provided until now. In fact, I'm pretty angry. But you got this already.

Then go somewhere else for a few weeks until you cool down.

NOBODY on this forum wants to hear your whining any more. You add nothing of any worth to the discussion .... your behaviour is simply childish.... nothing more.

Don't get me wrong any improvements in the software are welcome, I am one of the onliners that is having trouble. But judging the numbers, it seems that there´s far more people enjoying the game offline. Otherwise I think It would be fair to say that we should see at least 80+ pilots during prime-times over the weekends.

At this point, it seems that the majority of customers to satisfy (offline ones) are being forgotten... What do you guys think?

Regards.

I have to agree, the biggest annoyance with online play at the moment as I see it is the lack of sound, spending time fixing all the other online issues are pointless unless the sound issue is fixed, lets be honest who whould fly on line with no sound. Its my understanding that the sound issues are months away from a fix, so this current proposed patch really helps very few people, maybe if luthier visited here more often he would get a clearer picture of what we want fixing.

Who's "we" Kimosabe?

Maybe you should be more specific so that others don't think your trying to speak for the whole community. Your not.

Could you please explain what your on about here?


Although some of the things you listed would be nice to have, not many are high on my priority list.

I do hope they have a realistic explosion when that mine layer goes up with a deck full of mines! That would be cool! Also for a bit of variation could you include the larger motor launch on the back of the Mine layer as a seperate ship object. I like it a lot more that the other open boat objects

cheers!

And a request to those German fliers who keep requesting the E4. Could you also request the most common variant, the E1. For some reason you don't seem to complain, I can't think why exactly.......... Do you want a sim or do you just want to have as many advantages as possible?

Offline is playable for some time already: you can fire up FMB and have whatever experience you want offline.

Online is not playable as good yet: sound does not work, Steam disconnects servers every hour, interface does not allow players to join servers. These are the reason for low online players numbers.

Thus MG knows what priorities are in terms of online vs. offline and working on them.

It's a nice song and good luck with it, hope they do a 'Paramore'. Song looks a bit of piss to play, your boy will no doubt be an awesome guitarist one day all the same.......but you shouldn't be posting really dude - using your boy as an excuse too, tut tut tut........

Something I chuckle at tbh, I guess it's an adolescent thing but whenever I see bands this young the boys always find a female singer - they just don't seem to have the balls to do it at that age lol Later on females fronting a band are few, the lads take over.

Totally off topic, but more pleasant that the whining junk already posted.

And even with the sound problems and all the other issues, playing multiplayer on servers like Repka has been some of the most immersive online play I've had.

Many, Many thanks to the talented individuals that set up these servers and craft the missions.

Cheers!

If you fly red you might not wish that blue gets the E1!!
In CoD the machine-guns have a realistic destructive power and when the wing guns and the
fuselage guns in the E1 have the same ballistics they will be devastating!
I, for my part, made many more kills with the mg than with the cannons.

First of all thank you Luthier for the update looking forward to the beta-patch for the beta version of CloD. Back to the quote above, I also feel the single player part of the game is being neglected. It's just my opinion because I'm a 92% offline player. For the moment there's no reason for me to boot up the game, nothing that draws me in. As I've said before, making every mission for myself is very tiring and unrewarding. I haven't given up hope in the game but I just don't care so much any more, at least the multiplayer crowd will have a fully functioning game soon, good for them. I don't have any numbers but I guess MG are prioritizing MP because more people are playing online? I'll check out the game again when there is some form of campaign system with all the stuff that goes with it, not holding my breath though .

I'd have to agree, I think 2 more MG's on that bird would be more damaging than what is there at the moment, don't get me wrong when you do manage to get some hits on with cannons and flame someone it's a great feeling but I too score more hits with those MG's

Adding another 2 would be sweet..I'm no expert on performance difference between the E-1 & E-4 however
