Come on, we are not so nasty

lies!

for anyone struggling with basic comprehension and having some kind of aneurysm as a result - sequel means add-on. think il2 forgotten battles, with pacific fighters, with aces expansion, with 1946. it's all the same game, just large chunks of content that are added on. it's not a separate game, it's not abandonment of cliffs of dover, it's additions to the core game which will benefit the core game as well as expanding the theatres available.

Thanks for the update and especially for the effort by BS compiling it together, reading it through though, not much exciting or new for that matter. Still, thanks, it's better than silence.

Just one more thing:

13. Can you introduce a system of military ranks and awards?

Quote:
Yes, for the sequel.

14. Will you do further work on weather effects (rain, thunderstorm and so forth)?

Quote:
Yes, for the sequel.

Does this mean exclusively for the sequel or for both CloD and the sequel(s)?

Thank you, BlackSix.

I'm a little sad that it seems some of the bigger 'features' that were supposed to be part of CloD are now part of the sequel.

I'm glad they're still tuning and tweaking and making a graphics revision for CloD, though.

I guess what I'm saying is THIS time (with the sequel) I'm going to wait until the game is out and people have commented about it before I purchase. Especially if these features aren't going to be backward compatible with CloD.

I want to fly Spitfires and Hurricanes, g'damn it!

I bought this broken game twice, in russian and in english languages, and I feel cheated every week, every friday when the next beta-beta-beta-patch doesnt arrive and Mr. Luthier is too busy for writing two lines explaining why. No screenshots, not a decent list of new features..NOTHING.

And now, the ultimate insult: Seems that they have "moved" their effords to a "sequel", not even having finished the first part. My God, even the radio messages are a useless mess!! Weather engine? Nooo, moved to the sequel. C´mon!!

Well, good luck with that one. I will not be cheated again.

you bought the game cheap, in russian, because you could not wait to get your hands on it. if you feel "cheated" then that's your own malfunction, to be brutally honest. see my clarification on sequel above.

Forum members should be advised I have a low tolerance for back and forth pointless arguments in this thread, and will take action as necessary.

So do we know what the next theater will be? Russia or the Mediterranean?

I hope you are wrong, I don't feel too optomistic that all the problems will be fixed as the sequel will naturally become the priority. Let's see what the next update is like regards fixing many of the current SP and MP problems. I don't expect to see everything fixed or improved but hopefully it will be in a better state when the sequel is announced.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....what, game left beta state?....no?...ok........zzzzzzzzz






Appreciate the info effort Blacksix. Seems I was correct when I stated that CloD was a Battle Of Moscow beta - every effort has been shifted to the sequel a long time ago.
I shelfed the game and bought me a dslr while waiting for the sequel.
I so hope that CloD will make use of the updates in the sequel.
