My reading of the situation is that if they brought out a sequel now is that it would have all the underlying issues that presently exist. They are working on these issues and plan to have them sorted before the next release. In the meantime they are working on the maps and models so they are ready for the fully sorted engine. So no, I don't think they have any intention of just abandoning CloD as the code will be optimized first and then used for the Russian theatre. And no, I have no problem with spending what is a pitance on something that is being improved and developed and will give me years of real pleasure.

With these news and what we've experienced since 31 of March it is pretty clear that CloD was more of a beta, testing the engine on some happy campers in the west, prior to the russian release of Battle of Moscow.
"Hey, lets start with a beta and call it something brittish so we get a hole community to test it for us" Even though we in the west thought the IL-2 was groundbreaking and a big hit that everyone into cfs was playing, the number of sold copies was nothing compared to the russian market. So no surprise they focus on that market for the sequel. They're not fixing the game for us. They're trimming the engine for the BoM release. We didn't make Oleg a billionair, the russian players did. Look into a mirror and say hello to a beta tester for a russian company. We've been marginalized...and it hurts.

neither do I...

Do we really think that CloD, in terms of project goals, has achieved 90% of the target? Does anybody believe that a product about 10% better than CloD has any chance to survive in the actual market? Still, Is 90% good enough? I might… it depends whether the other 10% is above o below the “surviving margin”. Salutes

Tree, i can't believe that you really believe what you are posting here.
I think there are two Tree's, one is flying online and having fun and the other one needs to feel slighted and mistreated by Maddox Games.

as long BoB and BoM scenarios will be mergeable, its not important "fix it first" actually.
the "fixes" ( at least of 3D enigine and GUI) will be downwards compatible. as all improvements since 2001 were in IL2 FM and CEM things are another question...as long the planes are not needed for the BoM. We will see!

to be honest, i beliv ethe most costumers are not interested in our forum talk.........
they are interested in official working output of the development team - read "STEAM patches" Sure , its far beyond my understanding how someone can use this game with fun without getting help from the forums because of the totaly inadequate documantation/manual
