Friday Update, Q&A - December 23, 2011

[BigC208]

It's all good. The game will be patched up to where it's playable for everyone, not just those with top of the line computers. Those that don't want BoM can leave it on the store shelves and still enjoy CloD.

Luthier is praising himself for still working on the game after 7 months. I see that a bit different. As far as I'm concerned we're still in the 7th month of a paid for Beta. I'll regard it the release version when the next patch delivers on the performance increases and bug fix promises. I don't expect a multimillion dollar sim experience for $50. What I do expect is a finished product at some point. If Clod is not playable for all (min box spec) before BoM is released I'll wait with buying untill the reviews are out.

For me personally the sim in it's current state is enjoyable. Even with the messed up comms, the now and then crashes, the gui that sucks, the trees I can fly thru without collision, etc etc. When I get ticked off with some of the things I miss I'll just go play RoF or DCS for a bit. I keep coming back to CloD because there is simply no other WWII combat sim out there that's as immersive and detailed as CloD. When (not if) Luthier's team fixes what needs to be fixed this series will keep us entertained for the next 10 years.
